If you’ve ever wondered, “How long can you keep food hot in a flask?” you’re not alone. Insulated flasks are specially designed to keep hot and cold foods at the right temperature for a longer time. With the right thermos, you can avoid allowing your food to enter the “danger zone” when you’re at work, travelling, or on a long commute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The question is, how long can you expect your flask or thermostat to keep your hot lunch at the right temperature? Perhaps even more importantly, can you still eat food from a flask after it’s no longer as hot as it once was?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s take a look at the basics of keeping your food hot and preserving food safety when using a flask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not all food containers are built with the same quality of materials. Lower quality materials may mean you can only keep your food warm for two hours or so. Additionally, the kind of food you’re transporting<\/strong> and the food preparation <\/strong>(like whether you use boiled water or roasting methods) will also have an impact on how long your food remains safe to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you’re trying to keep your food hot or cold in a carefully-constructed flask<\/a>, it’s worth following the instructions and information provided by the flask manufacturer. Some flasks will require you to take certain steps to ensure your food doesn’t spoil faster than it should.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
