screamin hot water and about six hot dogs stuffed in there!

now that is something I have not thought of

I will remember that this season. I have a widemouthed thermos that I believe will be perfect for brats will onions!

Of course the other thermos usually has coffee along with chunks and pieces of whatever was in the thermos the last time I used it. I've been using it for 20 years and I'm afraid to think of what could be growing in there

hot apple cider is my favorite

No Thermos, but a coffee pot on the woodstove early in the AM. Bud or Budlight a bit later, after working up a sweat....usually around 10am local (it's past 12 somewhere in the world). Heck, I've already been up and on the ice at least several hours by then. Plus, Bud Light goes great with scrambled eggs and bacon!

I'm with Viper 75 hot water then i can mix with instant soup, spiced cider ,etc. or make a cup of decaffeinated /herbal tea. I never thought about the caffeine until reading one of the "Hooked on Ice Fishing " series of books . Caffeine like alcohol is a diuretic and excessive urinating can lower your body temp. in cold weather.
Another nice drink is Glogg (Swedish- Scandinavian ) I use a premade mix from a company called Saturnus . You mix one to one with hot water or vodka ,rum or red wine if not using hot water heat without bringing to a boil.

saturnus AB, Box 9040, 200 39 Sweden/Suede
website www.saturnus.se
there is an umlaut (.. ) over the o in Glogg and e in suede. the members from Minnesota and Wisconson can propably tell you more. Steve

To update my previous post the product is called export Glogg and the ratio is two parts glogg mix to one part water. Enjoy , have a good summer.

Either Hot Cider Or- Super cheap gas station cappunico...the expensive stuff isnt sweet enough...I figure I will switch over to coffee when I can grow a mustache. lol

miket. · « **Reply #74 on:** Aug 03, 2008, 06:17 PM »

well lets see here, i have one for chilly , one for soup, two for coffee, and one i keep empty were i can have filled at will. on these days i can cut back on the gear i will bring, stoves, spare fuel tanks , canned food, garbage, exc..... you must invest in good thermouses though. if you don"t have a good thermos, your goods WILL get cold.

Going to try this in the thermos this year. What I did for winter camping last year was fill a small crockpot about 3/4 full w/ apple juice and put in several shots of Jack daniels, added a few broken cinn. sticks and let simmer. This was awesome

What a drink to sip around a campfire in Jan. in a foot of fresh snow

miket. · « **Reply #79 on:** Aug 22, 2008, 08:54 AM »

sounds like the ticket to keep warm. i don:t drink anymore so i resort to much coffee.

Xpressman · « **Reply #80 on:** Sep 18, 2008, 09:54 AM »

Nothing is better than having a hot cup of coffee after coming off the ice at the end of the day. Especially the days when it's cold and dark and snowing. Sure helps warm a person up on the drive home.

poot_818 · « **Reply #81 on:** Sep 18, 2008, 10:58 AM »

usually if i bring a thermos its hot chocolate for the beginning of the day then i bring my cooler full of either a 30 of busch light or a 24 of coors light...makes for a good time when the bite is slow or when the bite is on...

miket. · « **Reply #82 on:** Sep 18, 2008, 10:29 PM »

i don:t bring hot cocoa in the thermos, i make while i am on the ice. i put other good stuff in the thermoses.

so whats the best thermos to use? nothing fancy just good and sturdy, that will last.

rgfixit · « **Reply #84 on:** Sep 20, 2008, 06:23 PM »

There is only one thermos in this world worth buying.
The original Stanley thermos. I have one that's more than 30 years old. You can't hurt them.

RG

bart · « **Reply #85 on:** Sep 20, 2008, 06:56 PM »

RG, I agree totally. I've had mine about 10 years and haven't been able to hurt it yet...

uberfish · « **Reply #86 on:** Sep 20, 2008, 07:11 PM »

i saw the stanleys at fleet farm but they were out of the largest size. ill pick one up next time

rgfixit · « **Reply #87 on:** Sep 21, 2008, 03:14 AM »

One tip;
Fill the thermos with very hot water and let it stand for about 5 minutes before putting your beverage of choice in it. It makes a lot of difference...hours.... in how long it stays hot.

My first Stanley(stolen on a job site) had a cork....I'm giving away my age

By the way, I almost always take beef or vegetable bullion. Sometimes I add a bit of instant rice for extra body.

http://www.stanley-pmi.com/shop/ here is the website for the stanley thermos'....they even sell parts for your old used and abused thermos....my old man has one that hes got a grip on it so tight you couldnt pry it from his hands with a chain hooked to a semi

i have a Thermos brand thermos but i really dont like it...and i have a cheap stainless steel traverling coffee mug but i just bought it cuz i was in dire need...it wasnt worth it i think im gonna buy a new thermos and coffee cup before the ice season hits!

JDiPerrio · « **Reply #89 on:** Sep 21, 2008, 07:45 PM »
