I don't believe there is such a thing, unless it's got electric power.
A Mr. Coffee will keep it hot for 24 hours, if you leave it plugged
in. Acually, it's a lot better after about 12 hours, 24 might be a
little long.

There's really no excuse for not having decent chow on board. I
always used to pride myself on how well the racing crew got fed using
just a one burner SeaSwing propane stove. The secret is to make it
all up in advance and freeze it into plastic bags holding one meal
each. Throw the frozen bags into the cooler and that helps to keep
the soda cold as well.


There is a grocery story chain in Des Moines that has dry ice pellets
for two bucks a pound. There is a vending machine. Ice cream for the
first couple of days. I wouldn't think the stuff is very hard to find.

Casady


Around here we can only buy dry ice in chunks of 25 pounds or bigger...
I wish we had vending machines like yours, wet ice is a mess on a race
weekend. I usually go through 6-10 bags on a typical weekend, two days
out in a campground and travel time on each end of the trip.

Scotty


Our Safeway is now carrying it in small chunks out of a cooler in the
store. Call your local grocery stores. You may be surprised.

Ahh, but *that* would require Froggy to spend a few dollars.

Do you happen to have a brand name or URL on those "keep it hot for 24

Thermos, dip****.


Yeah, which one keep coffee "too hot to drink" after 24 hours? Our
"Thermos" brand only keeps it that hot for 3-5 or so if we are lucky..

Thanks in advance...

Scotty


I don't believe there is such a thing, unless it's got electric power.
A Mr. Coffee will keep it hot for 24 hours, if you leave it plugged
in. Acually, it's a lot better after about 12 hours, 24 might be a
little long.


Yeah, I spent the last two summers with dozens of coffee drinkers every
day and nobody I saw had any 24 hour thermos. I have a nice Carafe but
as soon as you start replacing coffee with ambient air inside, it cools
off fast..

There's really no excuse for not having decent chow on board. I
always used to pride myself on how well the racing crew got fed using
just a one burner SeaSwing propane stove. The secret is to make it
all up in advance and freeze it into plastic bags holding one meal
each. Throw the frozen bags into the cooler and that helps to keep
the soda cold as well.

There is a grocery story chain in Des Moines that has dry ice pellets
for two bucks a pound. There is a vending machine. Ice cream for the
first couple of days. I wouldn't think the stuff is very hard to find.

Casady


Around here we can only buy dry ice in chunks of 25 pounds or bigger...
I wish we had vending machines like yours, wet ice is a mess on a race
weekend. I usually go through 6-10 bags on a typical weekend, two days
out in a campground and travel time on each end of the trip.

Scotty


Our Safeway is now carrying it in small chunks out of a cooler in the
store. Call your local grocery stores. You may be surprised.


I will check it out, it would sure make things a lot less messy and add
a bit to our menu options;)

You need one of these:

It will pay for itself quickly if you're buying a lot of ice.

They run on either 12 volts or 110, freezes or refrigerates.

If you get a good one that is made for camping, they'll hold coffee
hot for 24 hours. Think I got mine at REI.


First there was the Nippon Oxygen Company. Then there was Nissan made
in Japan, then made in Singapore, Now it is Nissan Thermos made in
China. There are two sizes, one pint and 61 0z. We have started the
permanent downhill slide to the mediocre life. The good stuff is
disappearing from the market, their makers are going broke. Go to the
Thermos Nissan web site.$43.99. 61 oz. Detachable shoulder strap, a
nice feature.

There ia a small one on ebay buy it now 14.99. There is a new large
one ebay 26.96. Go for it.

What difference does it make? You like instant coffee, which has no
resemblence to real coffe what so ever. Let's see, instant coffee,
cheap Mexican swill beer, boil in the bag turkey.....yep, you're quite
the gourmand, and so refined and cultured....


It is all a matter of taste. I have four cats and two dogs and I
couldn't interest a one of them in a live baby mouse. The snapping
turtle, boltcutter, doesn't hesitate.

Coffee? I grind the cheap beans from the supermarket, Eight bucks a
pound. Semi-gourmet. Turkey? My wife has a method that is an immense
ammount of work.

Best of luck with that if you have a raw water 140 F thermostat. The
manifold is water cooled unlike a air cooled truck manifold that gets
hot. You would barely be able to keep a cup of coffee hot. [My race
car, the headers glow yellow at full power.] You would have to go to a
lot of work, but if your motor is cooled with 220F[or hotter] glycol
you can cook with it. The manifold would get hotter, how much I don't
know. Maybe enough hotter to cook some things.
