User questions & answers

Question:	If you've used this for hot beverages, like cocoa, how did it do? Did it keep warm for several hours
Answer:	I have only used it for cold, but I was just at an event that served hot cocoa in one of these and I was surprised by how hot the cocoa was.
Question:	Anyone use this for sous vide cooking? I have a Sansaire, but Anova or Nomiku should be the same. Want to cook something big
Answer:	Technically, yes. I mash grains in the cooler for brewing beer and it works very well. Method:1. get liquid up to temp2. add food3. bring back up to temp4. pour in cooler and capnotes: I have never mashed longer than 2 hours. Final mash temp is usually near 160F. Remember, sous vide is not designed for large items, it can leave foods in the danger zone 40F-140F for way too long.
Question:	What is the actual difference between this jug and the more expensive yellow/red Igloo Jug
Answer:	This cooler has a flat top so you sit on it or you could put another smaller cooler on top and dispense from both. There is a groove to lift the lid on the orange/white model. The Yellow/Red has a handle to pull the top off and is more of a commercial type cooler.
Question:	can a person fit in it
Answer:	The simple answer is yes, provided you have first liquified the person with a solution of water and potassium hydroxide. The process which is called alkaline hydrolysis dissolves all the body tissue except the bones, separating the liquid from the solid remains. The now 'liquified' person can be easily transferred by a process know as pouring into the cooler. You will likely need a second Igloo Cooler in which to store the bones. I trust this helps.
