- Pros: Excellent thermal performance that genuinely keeps coffee hot for a full service.
- Cons: Being handwash only can slow down cleanup in very high-volume environments.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'Lakeside B&B' in Windermere needed a more efficient way to manage their breakfast service. Freshly brewed coffee was going cold too quickly, leading to waste and delayed top-ups for guests during the busy 8am-10am rush.
"These jugs have been brilliant. We can brew a large pot of coffee at the start of service and it's still lovely and hot an hour later. Our guests get coffee instantly and we're not pouring profits down the drain."
Robert Davies – Owner
By using three Olympia C092 jugs on their buffet, they eliminated coffee waste and improved the speed and flow of their breakfast service significantly.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before the first use, wash the inside thoroughly with warm, soapy water and rinse well.
- For best results, 'prime' the jug by filling it with hot water for a few minutes before emptying and filling with your beverage.
- Check that the rubber seal inside the screw-top lid is seated correctly to ensure a perfect, leak-proof fit.
- Make sure the thumb-release mechanism moves freely before filling with hot liquid.
Keeping It Going
- Always wash by hand. Do not place in a commercial or domestic dishwasher as this can damage the vacuum seal.
- Use a soft bottle brush and non-abrasive detergent to clean the interior, avoiding metal scourers.
- If coffee or tea stains build up, use a specialised cleaning powder or a solution of bicarbonate of soda and hot water.
- Always allow the jug and lid to air dry completely while separated to prevent stale odours from developing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long will this 1.5 litre vacuum jug keep coffee hot?
A: While it varies based on how full it is and the starting temperature, you can expect it to keep liquids piping hot for 2-3 hours, and warm for up to 6 hours.
Q: Can I use it for cold drinks too?
A: Absolutely! The vacuum insulation works both ways, keeping cold drinks like iced tea or water chilled for hours, which is perfect for summer.
Q: Is the outside of the jug hot to touch when filled?
A: No, the vacuum insulation prevents heat from transferring to the outer wall, so it will remain cool and safe to handle.
Q: Is the stainless steel liner likely to break if I drop it?
A: No, unlike glass-lined flasks, the stainless steel construction is highly durable and designed to resist dents and knocks from accidental drops.
Q: Can I put this jug in the dishwasher?
A: No, this product is handwash only. High temperatures and harsh detergents in a dishwasher can damage the vacuum seal and ruin its insulating properties.
Q: How do I get rid of coffee stains from the inside?
A: For stubborn stains, fill the jug with hot water and add a tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda or a specialised coffee equipment cleaner. Let it soak before washing as normal.
Q: Does the lid come apart for deep cleaning?
A: The main lid unit is a single piece for durability, but it's designed to be easy to clean with a brush to ensure no residue is left in the pouring mechanism.
Q: What are the exact internal dimensions?
A: While the external height is 215mm to fit under brewers, the internal dimensions are designed to hold precisely 1.5 litres of liquid.

Explore more from OlympiaHow Vacuum Insulation Stops the 'Stew'
Ever wonder how an insulated thermal jug actually works its magic? Think of it like a bubble of nothingness protecting your drink. Inside the jug are two walls of stainless steel, and in between them is a vacuum – literally, all the air has been sucked out. Heat needs something to travel through (like air or a solid material), so this empty space acts as a powerful barrier, stopping heat from escaping your coffee and preventing the cold from getting in. This is far better than a standard pot sitting on a hotplate, which constantly 'cooks' the coffee, leading to that bitter, stewed taste. A vacuum jug preserves the fresh-brewed flavour for much, much longer.
