I take a 2 hour commute to school every day. My Stanley thermos, which was gifted to me by my very consumerist aunt, doesn’t keep my moka pot coffee hot for 2 hours.

Although it is a pretty good thermos it seems to be leaking a lot of heat from the metal section near the cap.

Is there any thermos that has every section of it isolated? Like, I shouldn’t even be able to tell if there is a hot liquid inside

    Bottled water is another scam though! Yes, use the hot water tap. But, doesn’t Hoffman’s French press method require near-boiling water? A hot water tap is typically maybe 60C at most.

    Here’s the type of heater I was thinking of: https://www.ebay.com/itm/311442084287

    That’s a US version (120V) but I’m sure they have 230V ones if you need that. Another idea is a camp stove.

      incredibly inconvenient

      Imagine sitting in the corner near the plug with your weird resistive heater waiting for the water to get hot

      Also, things get pretty heavy when you have a 4 hour daily railway commute. There has been times when I didn’t take a bottle of water because it hurt my back

      So I’ll just stick to carrying grounds and buying hot water. It costs practically nothing compared to my current habit of buying coffee which is a huge hole in my budget
