If you're concerned, we actually sometimes put an ice cube or 2 and the kid's milk. Even though it waters it down a little, the kids don't notice, and I'd rather do that than have bad milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insulated-cup-question#post-2895462 Mon, 26 Aug 2019 08:21:32 +0000 josina 2895462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use an ironflask with water for myself... I fill it at night and just leave the lid off in the fridge. I bring it to work in the morning and it stays cold well past noon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insulated-cup-question#post-2895461 Mon, 26 Aug 2019 08:19:16 +0000 Sams Mom 2895461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Prime the cup with ice first. So let it sit with ice in it for 15-20 minutes, dump that out, then put your milk in, and refrigerated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insulated-cup-question#post-2895459 Mon, 26 Aug 2019 07:36:51 +0000 BadgerMom 2895459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm. That’s a good question. The milk is going to go in at fridge temp tho. And the surrounding temp is obviously fridge temp, so my hypothesis would be that it stays around that temp. The only thing at room temp would be the cup. Do you have an instant read thermometer to test? </p> <p>Otherwise you could store the cup empty in the fridge overnight and pour the milk in the AM before you put it in the lunchbox. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insulated-cup-question#post-2895458 Mon, 26 Aug 2019 07:20:04 +0000 meadow 2895458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok....I feel like the science doesn't make sense here....</p> <p>If I fill my kids thermos funtainer with milk at like 10pm, put it in the fridge......then take it out at 5:30 to send with kids to school (no fridge) will it be cold thru lunchtime?</p> <p>I'm thinking the insulation would keep the fridge coldness out &amp; thus milk would be warm by 10am......no? </p>
