  • Con: It is handwash only, so it can't be rushed through a commercial dishwasher.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Lavender House Hotel in Harrogate was looking to upgrade its breakfast service. Their old ceramic jugs were inefficient, allowing milk to warm up quickly on the buffet and  were prone to chipping, looking unprofessional.

"Our breakfast service is our pride and  joy. Switching to these Olympia thermal jugs has made a noticeable difference. The milk stays cold for hours, and  they look incredibly smart on the tables. It's a small change that has had a big impact on guest satisfaction."

Eleanor Vance – Proprietor

The hotel noted a significant drop in milk wastage and  received positive guest feedback on the improved service quality.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, always wash the inside with warm, soapy water and  rinse thoroughly.
  • For best results, pre-condition the flask. Fill with hot water for 5 minutes before adding hot drinks, or cold water for cold drinks.
  • Ensure the screwtop lid is properly aligned with the threads and  tightened securely to create an air-tight seal.

Keeping It Going

  • This jug is strictly handwash only. Using a dishwasher can damage the vacuum seal.
  • Use a long-handled bottle brush and  non-abrasive cleaner to avoid scratching the interior.
  • For stubborn coffee or tea stains, a soak with a solution of bicarbonate of soda and  hot water works wonders.
  • Always store with the lid off to allow it to air dry completely and  prevent any odours from developing.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Thermal Jug

Not sure which screwtop thermal flask 500ml is right for your setup? Here are a few things to consider.

Capacity vs. Use

Consider your table sizes. A 500ml jug is great for tables of 2-4, while larger 1L versions suit bigger groups or buffets.

Labelling is Key

Jugs for specific contents like milk or decaf coffee benefit from clear etching to prevent mix-ups during a busy service.

Lid Type Matters

A screwtop offers the best seal against spills, vital for table service. A push-button lid might be quicker for self-service stations.

Material & Durability

Stainless steel offers the best toughness for commercial use, resisting dents and  drops far better than glass or plastic liners.

Your Cleaning Routine

Check if the jug is dishwasher safe or handwash only. This can significantly impact your team's workflow and  clean-up time.
