RailMan: I would like to describe the logic in this puzzle in case anyone comes back to it later. Spoilers ahead!
The break-in uses the geometry of the blue areas. If you compare the four blue areas (4 sets of the digits 1-6) with columns 2 & 5 and rows 2 & 5 you can figure out that R2C2, R2C5, R5C2 & R5C5 must have the same digits as R3C3, R3C4, R4C3 & R4C4.
You can then consider R2C2, R2C5 and R5C2 and show they must be from 2,3,4 because of the thermos. You can show that the smallest digit in those squares must go in R4C4 and also that there cannot be any repeated digits in these three squares (because they will always break the thermos or geometry).
Then, because of the thermos there must be a 5 somewhere in R3C3, R3C4, R4C3 and this must be repeated in R5C5.
From there you can solve the bottom row and the rest of the puzzle is fairly easy.
I hope you enjoy the puzzle and have a nice day.
