Abstract
A container test system includes a test chamber in which a container may be located for testing, for instance, for assessing insulative properties of a container. In the test chamber, the outside of the container is thermally treated, temperature of the air outside the container is measured, and temperature of a liquid inside the container is measured. A related testing method is also disclosed.

14. A method of assessing insulative properties of a container that includes the steps of:
-
positioning the container in a test chamber; filling, the container with cooled liquid by delivering the cooled liquid from the cooled liquid source until the cooled liquid reaches a fill level in the container; thermally treating the outside of the container within the test chamber, measuring temperature of the air outside the container; and measuring temperature of the liquid inside the container. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
