Thermos Stalgast 386100

A serving thermos holds hot food at serving temperature without electricity or reheating. It uses a double-walled vacuum flask construction: an inner container is sealed inside an outer shell, with the space between evacuated. The vacuum prevents heat transfer by conduction or convection, while reflective surfaces inside minimise radiant heat loss. This keeps contents hot for hours, letting staff prepare dishes in advance and serve them at the correct temperature without a power source.

To use, fill the inner container with hot food, seal the lid tightly, and place it inside the outer shell. The thermos is then ready for transport or display on a worktop or buffet. When serving, open the lid and dispense directly from the container. The design allows food to be kept hot without further attention, freeing staff for other tasks.

The unit is constructed from stainless steel, chosen for durability and ease of cleaning. The exterior is polished for a professional appearance, while the interior is smooth to prevent food from sticking. The lid seals securely to prevent spills during transport.

The 1 litre capacity suits individual portions or small batches of sauces, soups or stews. The 235 mm height fits under standard kitchen shelving and on buffet counters without taking excessive space. The compact size also makes it easy to carry by hand or store in a cupboard when not in use.

Cleaning involves washing the inner container and lid with hot water and detergent after each use. The vacuum seal requires no maintenance, but the lid gasket should be checked periodically for wear and replaced if damaged to maintain performance.
