How to Properly Use Your Thermo Gaucho Tradition: Tips and Tricks.
The Thermo Gaucho Tradition is designed to keep your drinks hot or cold for hours, whether it's mate, coffee or tea. To get the most out of your thermos and maximize its performance, here are some practical tips.
1. Optimal Filling:
To avoid spillage and ensure optimal thermal performance, fill your thermos up to the line that marks the beginning of the stainless steel top, just before the spout. This ensures better temperature retention and prevents splashing when closing the thermos.
2. Secure the spout:
The spout is made up of two parts connected by a screw system. Make sure they are screwed tightly to prevent water leaks and maintain the temperature.

3. Maintaining Temperature:
The Thermo Gaucho Tradition is designed to maintain the temperature of water for 24 hours, provided that it is tightly closed. However, if the thermos is opened frequently, the heat will begin to slowly escape, reducing the thermos' ability to maintain temperature to approximately 5 to 6 hours during continuous use. To maximize thermal efficiency, it is recommended to close the spout of the thermos between uses or during extended breaks.
4. Regular Cleaning:
To ensure that your Thermo Gaucho Tradition remains in perfect condition and that your drinks retain their taste, regular cleaning is essential, especially if you use the thermos to transport liquids other than water, such as coffee, sweetened tea, or drinks containing milk.
Here are some effective methods for cleaning:
- Baking Soda and White Vinegar Method: Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and ½ cup of white vinegar to the thermos. Then fill it with hot water and let it sit for 10 minutes. Use a brush to clean the inside, then rinse thoroughly with hot water.
- Lemon Juice Method: Lemon juice is an effective natural cleanser due to its acidity. Add 3-4 tablespoons of lemon juice to the thermos, shake for 5 minutes, then rinse well to remove any residue.
- Salt and Ice Method: Fill the thermos one-third full with crushed ice cubes and add 2 tablespoons of coarse salt. Shake vigorously so the mixture acts as a natural abrasive, then rinse well.
These methods will help remove stubborn stains and lingering odors, ensuring your thermos stays fresh and ready to use.
4. Versatile Use
The Thermo Gaucho Tradition is ideal not only for mate, but also for a variety of other drinks. Whether it's coffee, tea or even iced water, this thermos keeps your drinks at the perfect temperature, wherever you are.
