Need a quality Thermos

Title says it all. I have a Nissan 16 oz. that is nice that I throw in the backpack or briefcase for work. But I'm looking for something bigger. The large one I have now is lousy and coffee doesn't stay warm long when it's sitting in the trunk for a few hours of trout fishing.

I have the 26oz Stainless Thermos Nissan that has kept coffee hot just about all day.

I have a 40oz Thermos brand I get at Target (it's a vacuum type). It holds just about 8.5 cups, and I always have to be careful when I pour a new cup that I don't' burn myself.

On the days I'm really busy I've taken the last cup at 3pm (brewed at 6:30am) and still burnt myself. But I also make sure to let very hot tap water warm it up for at least 5 min. before I pour in the coffee.

That's a tip my uncle gave me years ago when we were going waterfowl hunting.
No matter how cold it was in the blind, the coffee stayed hot.

Stanley makes a great one. No matter which one you get, preheating it before you put the coffee in is a must to keep the coffee hot.
