Klean Kanteen TK Food Flask

Klean Kanteen's TK Canister

Rather than making food from scratch, or buying an extortionate butty at an event she was attending, Muddy Madam decided she wanted to take a bowl of her home made soup, but the only food flask we had was tall and a bit narrow - great for one of my chillis, but not for soup, so she went on the hunt for a new one. It didn’t take her long, as already a huge fan of Klean Kanteen’s products it was the first place she looked and she ordered their mid-size 16oz (473ml) insulated TK Canister.

Made from durable stainless steel, it is easy to clean, stackable and dishwasher safe. With an internal thread design for increased thermal performance and a newly designed bowl-shaped base, it’s wide enough for scooping soup. The lid locks in leakproof storage in just a quick quarter turn and features an easy-carry swivel loop.

Klean Kanteen’s Climate Lock double-wall vacuum insulation keeps contents hot for 7 hours and cold for 25 hours.  At 8am, to test this, I filled it with boiling water, then at 8.15am, after emptying the water I filled it with a homemade chilli with rice. Poking a cooking thermometer through to the centre it read 77.4°C. I then sprinkled a bit of cheese on top (which did come straight from the fridge so would have dropped the temp. a smidge), and popped on the lid.  At 12.15pm it was dinner time (lunch if you’re a southerner), and after probing my chilli again, the temperature was still a toasty 61°C.

Unless you enjoy the sound of nails scraping on a chalkboard don’t use metal cutlery (I won’t make that mistake again).  Instead dig out your bamboo spoon or plastic spork, as even now, a few month’s after I first used it, I still get a shiver down my spine at the sound it made!

Overall the TK Food Flask has been a wonderful addition to both our outdoor kitchen and work dinners for soups, stews and chilli - just heed my warning on the cutlery!
