I get now why someone complained about " Thermos ". That's a generic name for a vacuum flask. Like " Hoover " is for a vacuum cleaner though there are other brands.

Use a quality Stanley food jar. It has a much wider mouth, super easy to clean.

Can you cook dry beans this way, like red kidney beans?

Prices have gone up in 12 years, but so has quality.

Thermos cook: Yesterday, I bought a manna titan thermos with the double Steel walls and all, give it a wash and put on a pot of split pea soup. I’d already soaked the peas to the point of sprouting. I put it on the stove, I got it started with everything in it, I let it cook for maybe 10 or even 20 minutes. I did preheat the thermos with 2 L of hot water. The soup went to do the thermos securely, and it fit just to the top. I had calculated that recipe just so that it would be the same volume of the thermos. I left it up right, not realizing that horizontal would be more effective for it, and at no point but I feel the heat on the outside of the thermos, but the cover did get warm . I went to bed, and 17 hours later opened it up. The beans were still pretty hard. I’m obviously very new at this, and I’m trying it because somebody mentioned it to me as an alternative to a thermal cooker. So I just put it back on the stove and brought the food back to a rolling boil, while letting another two or 3 L of water heat the thermos back up. I’ve poured the food back in the thermos, and left it on its side properly. This is an experiment of course, but any insights you want to offer will be greatly appreciated, do getting it cooked in a timely fashion. I don’t mind leaving it all day, I just like to have it cooked at the end of that time period. It might be important to specify that I did not add any salt to it, and won’t until it’s pretty much cooked. By way of return for your information, in terms of getting down into those thermoses to give him a good cleaning, I picked up a bottle brush that was made for cleaning wine bottles. My local Brewer supply place had them and they were quite inexpensive. They reach all the way to the bottom, and have the right girth of bristle to reach all the surfaces. Any ideas/suggestions, please?

Coming to this video after energy crisis in Europe... might need to learn a few tricks for winter...!

Best step father ever

😆 how many times do you say “thermos” in this video 😆

When you leave it to cook over night, is it still warm in the morning? Also, subscribed!! Great video

There should be a name for all these North Americans who talk to people like they were born yesterday. Like Nanny Syndrome or "When did I ask Syndrome". Seriously it is just one piece of useless and stupid information after the next with an absolutely clueless ability to sense what others should already know and just tell them what they might not know - you know like the rest of planet does? Holy crap what is North America anyway? Shut the hell up.

Weird him talking about kettles like every house doesn't have one. How do Americans make hot drinks?

thanks why not pour the hot water you pre-heated the thermos with into another thermos instead of pouring it away to conserve energy, :)

Thanks Dave

Don't need a thermos, just a jar with a lid and a towel to wrap it in. Instant coffee jar works fine.

Whitest dude on youtube?

Thanks very much for your nice ideas, I hope you'll do more!!!

I was at a thrift store today and bought that exact model thermos without the handle for 80 cents. I remember wondering if I could use it to make oatmeal or rice, which brought me here. I guess I can cook in it after all.

Turtleneck under a Polo shirt. Brave choice, Dave.

.....check on Amazon for thermos cookers..........nice, short, squat containers that you can cook and eat out of .........not tall beverage thermoses that you can't eat your groats, other foods from and hard to clean.....nice wide mouth too......my favorite size for cooking/eating is the 16 oz, size......just sayin'......🙋‍♀️

Dude just put an immersion coil in the thermos to boil the water right in the thermos!!!!!

A great technique for saving money on meals during extended hotel stays.

Stanley is not a Thermos! You mean vacuum flask, not Thermos.

4:30 is abooooout where anything that matters starts.

5:00 "Once the water was boiling, I'd pour it into the kettle and get it to boiling". Ummmmm, okay.

Titanium thermos holds no flavor or odors, too small to cook but awesome thermos anyway.

why stainless steal instead of glass thermos? any particular reason? thx

WOW, a kettle is good at boiling water I never knew that oh and why not just use hot water to warm up the metal insides it's not like the boiling water magically heats the vacuum... U would need a radiation laser or something magical like that to do that

thank you, thank you. I'm thrilled! I hate cooking and you just took the "ugh" out of it for me! :)

Thanks for the upload. Will you be making more videos? Would love to see stew or soups.

my word that was hard watch, 8 mins for that, 1 cup oats 3.5 water... amazed by the the 'electric kettle', not!! I think this guy has been in a bunker for the last 30 years.. I'm off to see his video on the best way to toast some bread, hopefully he'll have that nailed in under 20mins

Real cool vid please consider sharing more stuff with us you got a great style and I know you got plenty more ideas :)

what the hell i wonder why ??? it would not let me post a reply so i put it here

YES!!! Nice vid. I'll check your site.

Thanks for the great suggestions

GO to mvtradingco com for all thermos cooker and all thermos food too.

At 1:14 you mention building a little fire to boil water. See video nHtA-d9hNPk ("DIY: How to make a backpacking wood gasifier stove") for an efficient method.

Doesnt the boiling water turn the thermos into pressure vessel rather than vacuum container? i just cant see how the vacuum would form other than after the water is cooled totally and that would create sort of vacuum.. but even after that the cooking would be definately done.. so wont be effecting the cooking process.. also if there would be incredibly hard to open the thermos with even slightest vacuum inside..

I'm definitely going to try this. Already have a stainless steel Thermos and an electric kettle around the kitchen. Thank you very much! :-)

my mind is blown! looks like a great way to put together food for on the go.

Brilliant Video! I love the way the guy introduced us to "an electric kettle" as if we would have never seen one before, and they are a real rarity. Still a great video.

thermos aka dewar flask. if anyone is looking to cook larger volumes, they should look up an 'airpot' (ie a coffee dispenser) on amazon-- this biggest ive found so far is 4 liters (!)

@gnostie Hi gnotie, getting the food out can be challenging :) But to clean the thermos, try using a bottle cleaning brush. You can get them for about $2... it's a wide brush that's designed to reach down into a space like that. Another tip is, after scooping the food out, fill the thermos with hot water and soap (and some cleaning vinegar) and shake it violently for a while. And to prevent odors, soak it once a week in water and baking soda.

Sounds good, but it's INCREDIBLY hard to get the food out of the narrow thermos and to clean that thermos.

Thanks :)

Props for linking to Kurt Saxon. I started cooking irish oatmeal, beans, and lentils thanks to this method he came up with. His site's down, I assume he is dead.

I've been doing this for work. It's helped me lose weight.

nice, info ,there is a new discover boiling the water or cooking oil that save 70% in power and time,...visit ''glotoniok'' venpar fast boiler a science project success.

Thanks for the info and video..I need to try this
