Hello! Thank you for your question! The Coleman&reg; 5 Gallon Water Carrier is primarily designed for carrying and dispensing cold or room-temperature water. It is not specifically insulated or designed to safely maintain very hot liquids for extended periods. For best performance and product safety, we recommend using it with cold or cool beverages rather than hot water. If you need further assistance, please reach out to us via chat or the Contact Us form on our official Oster website. We&rsquo;re available Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm Eastern Time. We look forward to assisting you! Thank you, and please stay safe! Coleman Consumer Care
