Oasis Food Flasks

If you have recently purchased one of the fantastic Oasis Food Flasks - here is a little info on how to get the very best out of your new flask and ensure that your food is nice and warm when you tuck in!

Tips on keeping your food warm:

Fill the flask with boiling water and put the lid on for 5-10 minutes before pouring the water out and adding your food.
Your food needs to be VERY hot when it goes in, so hot you couldn’t eat it at the point you put it into the flask.
It works best when there is some liquid in the flask as this helps keep the food warm - a super-hot casserole or soup for example stays warmer for much longer than pasta without a sauce which doesn’t really have much moisture to maintain the heat as well.
The manufacturers say that the flask can keep food warm for up to 5 hours, so… the closer to leaving the house you put food in your flask, the better. They aren’t designed to keep food warm for longer than 5 hours at most.

Tips on keeping your food cold:

You can either put your food flask in the freezer for approx. 10-15 minutes or in the fridge for as long as you like before adding your food to help keep it extra cold. Alternatively, you can put food in your food flask then pop it in the freezer for a bit, or in the fridge for an hour or so, then take it out when you are ready.

It is recommended you handwash your food flask with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, then dry.
