This is the carafe you need for any beverage you want to keep hot or cold as long as possible. Thermax insulation is a vacuum space where all the air has been removed from between two layers of stainless steel. It is the most efficient and compact form of insulation you can get in a carafe, and it's unbreakable.

This type carafe beats any of the foam or glass models hands down, but it's more expensive, too. I had a glass model for years and years, and this one holds more liquid in a smaller sized pitcher and it keeps it hot for much longer. As an example, I've gone back to the carafe after about seven hours and poured the last cup of coffee that was just as flavorful and almost as hot as it was when it went in the carafe.

Now here are some things to think about. First, the within described product (the Nissan TGS1000) is a 1 liter or 34 ounce size. It will NOT hold 10 to 12 cups of coffee; the standard measure for a coffee cup is 6 ounces so this model will hold just over 5 cups. The carafe you want for maximum capacity is the Nissan Thermos TGS1500 that is 1.5 liters or 51 ounces; it will hold just under 12 cups.

Second, while the product is described as dishwasher-safe, you don't want to put it in the dishwasher. The exterior has a clear coating that will dull and chip off in the dishwasher. The best way to maintain it is to scrub the interior with a bottle brush, and, if you use detergent, rinse very thoroughly.

Third, the screw-on stopper is quirky. It seals very well to help keep in heat since heat rises even in an insulated carafe. However, it uses a push lever to dispense the liquid and then the stopper does not drain well for dispensing or cleaning. The best way to clean it is to rinse and then shake out all the water so it dries between uses.

The bottom line...this product does an admirable job of keeping beverages very hot or very cold for long periods of time and it looks nice. It's just not very easy to clean.
