Step 1 -
Put 500mL of vinegar in a container and gently add the bicarbonate of soda (you will see a gas being released as it foams, this is carbon dioxide).
Step 2 -
Pour this solution into the 500mL of boiling water in the pan and allow the solution to evaporate: you will notice crystals forming at the bottom of the pan.
Step 3 -
Remove the crystals from the bottom of the saucepan and crush them so that they fit into the container (in this case, the Pompotes flask).
Step 4 -
Bring the water to the boil and melt the mixture in the flask at a low temperature until the mixture is liquid.
Step 5 -
Leave the sachet to stand in the open air, avoiding any shocks.
Step 6 -
Add the paperclip and then stir the sachet to crystallize the sodium acetate which, being exothermic, will provide us with heat!
Step 7 -
To reuse it, repeat steps 4 and 5.
