What Components Belong in a Dry Ice Lunch Box?
Must‑have items (keyword in context):
Mini insulated shell (Eva + reflektierende Folie).
¼‑lb dry ice slice inside a micro‑perforated pouch.
Belüftungspatch rated 15 psi to bleed CO₂.
Food tray divider to stop freezer burn.

How Much Dry Ice Is Enough for Lunch?
Quick Rule: Hours Needed × 0.05 lb = Dry Ice Weight
So a 6‑hour office day → 0.30 lb (~136 g). Round up to the next ¼‑lb slice.
Ladeschritte
Pre‑Kühlbox 5 min in freezer.
Place dry ice pouch at the bottom.
Insert insulated divider.
Add food containers—leave 1 cm gap around walls.
Zip shell, ensure vent patch is unobstructed.
