Can The Thermos Cup Be Used to Make Tea?

People cannot live without thermos cups and insulated water bottles. The thermos cup can be filled with hot water, so that you can drink and warm your stomach anytime, anywhere. The vacuum insulated bottle allows you to fill up your vacuum insulated bottle at home or in the office. Compared with thermos bottles, people will carry thermal tumbler wherever they go, and also use thermos cups to hold various beverages, including tea. In this article, we will discuss whether the thermos cup can make tea.

 

Can The Thermos Make Tea?

 

To prevent the tea soup from getting cold quickly, many people like to make tea in a vacuum flask. In fact, this approach is a wrong and unhealthy way to make tea.

 

1. It affects the taste of the tea itself and loses its health benefits.

 

Tea is rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, sugar, vitamins and minerals. It is a natural health drink. The tea polyphenols, caffeine, tannins, tea pigments, etc. contained therein also have a variety of pharmacological effects.

 

Because the temperature of the thermos cup is generally relatively high, although the tea can be quickly dissipated, it also reduces the fragrance that the tea should have. Moreover, the tea that has been blanched at high temperature will lose the nutrients it contains, thereby losing the health benefits of the tea. Therefore, it is not suitable to use a thermos cup for making tea.

 

In a word, if you use a thermos cup to make tea, the tea leaves will be soaked in high-temperature water for a long time, and a large amount of tea polyphenols, tannins and other substances will be leached, making the tea color strong and bitter. In fact, you can choose insulated tumblers, built stainless steel tumblers and stainless steel tea cups to make tea.

 

2. It is harmful to health.

 

In addition, there is a metal coating on the surface of the inner pot of the glass vacuum flask, and some of the ingredients in the tea will chemically react with the metal coating, resulting in a variety of trace chemical components. Long-term intake of some of the substances may be harmful to the human body, and stainless steel keep cups and stainless steel insulated coffee mugs with lid have similar situations, so everyone should pay attention to choosing suitable utensils when making tea.

 

3. It will cause tea stains and is not easy to clean.

 

A layer of dirty tea will accumulate after making tea in a vacuum flask for a period of time, and it is not easy to clean. Originally, there is no fragrance in the built-in insulated cup to make tea. If layers of tea dirt accumulate for a long time, it will not only be unhygienic, but will also shorten the life of the insulated cup.
