This generally depends on the ingredients in the soup, and the way it's being kept warm. Broth-based soups have more moisture than cream-based soups, and when they contain chunky ingredients (veggies, grains, pasta, meat), will become more homogenous over a shorter period of time. Generally speaking, the more homogenous the soup is, the longer it can stay hot without becoming unpalatable.

Pasta, rice or potatoes will become mushy after a few hours, especially in a broth-based soup. The starchy ingredients will expand and loose their texture as they absorb water, mixing in with the rest of the broth.

A smooth cream-based soup, such as tomato, can be kept warm for days if covered and occasionally stirred.


All whole vegetable inclusions will eventually get soft enough to fall apart, the length of time depending on the vegetable in question (and whether the soup is broth or cream-based). Carrots and onions tend to stand up to the heat for many hours; broccoli and beans.


Meats with high fat content (such as beef chuck, bacon, etc) will dissolve faster than low fat meats (white chicken meat, chopped pork chops, etc).
