Vacuum.

Use a glass wall vacuum flask. Fill with copper pot scourers.
See Reichmann for a complete explanation of why this is a good idea.

I agree, but I can't find a source of half liter glass vacuum flasks. The
consumer variety are stainless steel these days.

I just fat fingered the delete of a post from Tim Ward (I think) with some
links to 1 Pt. glass vacuum bottles. Anyway thanks for the links.

As for the stainless steel vacuum, bottles, I had tested them way back on
another project involving liquid nitrogen and they were far inferior to the
glass bottles. The LN2 would evaporate from the stainless ones three times
faster than from the glass dewars. On the other hand, they were a lot more
rugged.
