FAQs
How long does a frozen Thermos Freezing Board last?
The duration varies significantly based on the ambient temperature, the amount of product inside the cooler, and the insulation quality of the bag. In a well-insulated bag and moderate temperatures, expect several hours of effective cooling.
Can I put the freezing board in the dishwasher?
No, the freezing board is not dishwasher safe. Hand wash with warm water and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
What happens if the freezing board leaks?
If the freezing board develops a leak, it should be replaced. Do not attempt to repair it. The contents are typically a non-toxic gel.
How many freezing boards should I use?
For daily lunches, one board is usually sufficient. For picnics or longer trips, using two boards or placing them strategically around the contents in a larger cooler can improve performance.
Are these suitable for long-term food storage?
These boards are designed for temporary cooling in insulated bags or boxes, not for long-term food preservation. They are best suited for meals and snacks during the day or for transport.
Can I reuse the freezing board?
Yes, the Thermos Freezing Board is designed for repeated use. Simply refreeze it after each use.
Troubleshooting
Freezing Board not getting cold enough
Ensure the board has been in the freezer long enough to freeze solid (at least 8-12 hours). Check that your freezer is set to an appropriate temperature.
Leaking from the board
Inspect the board for any cracks or damage. If a leak is detected, discontinue use and replace the board.
Short cooling duration
The cooling duration depends on ambient temperature and the insulation of the container. Ensure the cooler bag is fully zipped and has good insulation. For longer durations, consider using two boards or a larger size if available.
