Brilio.net - Thermos is a piece of furniture known for its ability to keep the temperature of the water inside it stable, both hot and cold. With its thermal insulation technology, thermos is able to maintain the temperature of the water for quite a long time. It can be used anytime, without the need to heat it again. This practicality is what makes thermos a frequently used item, especially when traveling.
When hot water is put into a thermos , the water temperature tends to be stable and remains hot for several hours, even lasting more than half a day depending on the quality of the thermos. This feature is very useful, especially for those who need hot water continuously, such as for making tea or coffee. In addition, thermoses also help save energy because they do not need to heat water repeatedly. That way, thermoses become furniture that is not only practical, but also efficient in supporting daily needs.
However, thermoses that have been used for a long time, even years, are often no longer able to keep the water temperature as hot as before. This is usually caused by damage to the thermos or a decrease in the quality of the insulation inside. Insulation plays an important role in preventing the transfer of water temperature, so that the water in the thermos remains hot for a long time. When the insulation begins to deteriorate, the thermos' ability to maintain the water temperature also decreases, so that the water inside cools faster.
This decrease in insulation quality can be caused by various factors, such as the age of the thermos, repeated use, or damage due to impact. When the insulation is no longer functioning optimally, heat from the water escapes more easily, so that the water stored in the thermos cannot stay hot as long as expected. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the condition of the thermos regularly and replace it if it starts to show signs of decreased performance, so that the thermos can continue to function properly and maintain the water temperature as needed.
To overcome this problem, some people usually choose to disassemble the thermos and replace some components inside. There are also those who choose to cover the glass tube in the thermos with cloth as a solution. However, instead of having to disassemble the thermos, there are actually other ways that can be done to keep the thermos durable in maintaining its heat.
Furthermore, the trick was once demonstrated by Instagram user @lie_denielcandra. In his video upload, he provided a tutorial to keep the contents of the thermos hot. Reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @lie_denielcandra on Tuesday (3/9), prepare a simple tool, namely a rubber band.

The method is fairly easy, first open the thermos lid. Then tie a rubber band on the inside of the thermos lid. The number of rubber bands used can be adjusted according to needs. In his video upload, this netizen only tied one rubber band.

Once done, close the thermos again as usual. Because there is an addition of rubber like this, the hot steam inside the thermos is locked. As a result, the water inside the thermos will remain hot for a long time.

This is proven after he kept the water in a thermos for a day, the result is still hot. Very easy to imitate at home, right?
