Nice idea and vid. Will have to try it. Top tip: If you scrunch the paper into a ball and then straighten it out, it will conform to the shape of your pan easier and not spring back. Where did you get the little baking rack pls?
I got the rack from Ebay. I had hoped that it would fit my smaller trangia mess tin but it's a tiny bit too big. As you can see it's a bit too small for my larger Larken (nolonger available) mess tin. These racks are sold alongside copies of trangia mess tins so search for something like "lunch box rack" and check the size carefully. Thanks for the crumpling trick. Got to give that a go.
V60 is a type of coffee filter that has a lot of pretentious techniques around it. To be fair it does take a bit of skill to get a decent cup out of it. I picked the sealer up from Ebay. Lots of similar ones are available. It was under £10. Search for "Mini Bag Sealer 2 in 1 Heat Sealer Cutter Handheld Bag Sealing Machine" takes a bit of practice. Good luck
A little slower, but with Stoves with no simmer option the cake won't burn if water checked & topped up. A very good option. I have tried with alfoil but didn't think about using parchment / baking paper. Well done! Thank you for sharing 👍 🙂
Cooked this way the cake is moist and very sweet. If you keep the cake above the water on a rack it doesn't matter what you use, parchment or foil. Thanks for commenting
Sea to Summit. I did see one on a website, will post link in the description, in a pack of stuff called "Kitchen Bits." I picked it up decades ago so it doesn't look as if it's still available but you may find old stock somewhere. Hope that is of help.
Nice stove and good video. The different parts pack well inside each other👍. Making camping stoves is fun. I once made a modification of the Esbit stove. It works with a Trangia gas burner, an alcohol burner and can also burn wood. It might also work with a Trangia alcohol gel burner or a multi fuel burner, but I don't have them.
Yes. The cylinder is from a gas lantern. Most of these lanterns fit standard gas cylinders. Some offer a small cylinder as an optional extra that has the same valve as a standard gas cylinder. A company called Camping Moon sells a larger cylinders that holds something like 35g of gas as well as smaller ones like the one I picked up that holds 15g. I like the concept but didn't like the high cost of Camping Moons products so picked up the one in the video for about £15. Unfortunately it's no longer available but others of the same volume are out there and can be found with a bit of searching. I hope that answers your question if not please ask again.
It's quite heavy compared to an equivalent alcohol setup such as this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0UsuS68DJ8U.htmlsi=b8RE3CyASDzDc6Gz but is admittedly quite cool. Haven't seen many videos about them outside of Japan. Better still put together both!
@EpicureanHikers true. But I do like the guarantee of more control for the simmering element. Having said that, I genuinely LOVE the other set up for a quick boil up!
Beautifully prepped, executed and filmed. I can imagine it would taste amazing in the outdoors. I dod laugh at the mini grater, but must confess that the mini knife makes me ache!
I left both Opinel #9 and #6 at home. Thankfully I had an mini Victorinox Alox. I chuckle everything I use the ridiculous grater but it's OK for small stuff like garlic or ginger. It came with a bunch of other stuff so I feel obliged to use it. Thanks for comment.
Hi. I enjoyed the video, thanks for taking the time to film, edit and post. I couldn’t see the link to the ultra light camping table in the description and would be interested to know more. Kind regards, Broadlander
I wouldn't say ingenious...after seeing this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RLy75dTe30M.htmlsi=GxcwaaKnJyzuLQ3y Expensive but so cool.
The smaller the stove = less heat. Sometimes less heat is better. We tend to prepare for the most extreme weather which we rarely experience. I started making these little stoves as a backup to my main stove so that if everything went pear shaped I'd be able to get a hot beverage or something. After using them in day hikes they are my main goto for day hikes. With careful choice of ingredients and recipes it's surprising what you can do with a simple setup like this. I'm still having fun with this concept but will rely on my canister stove for multi day hikes and use these as a backup. Thanks for watching.
Thanks. I'm quite busy at the moment so the next one will not be for a week or two unless I get a few moments to myself. Sorry about that. Thanks for taking the time to comment

I'd recommend making from cardboard first. Assembly can be difficult so see how I put one together. I assemble one of the "legs" onto the plate first then the second leg. First time you try you will see what I mean.
Nice. Question - how big are your pockets? How do you fit all the veggies, and rectangular pot, in your pocket? 🤔Also, what do you use for keeping the seafood cold, and how do you carry that in your pocket ?😶
@user-iz4qj4ku7j Just spotted your comment. The pit stand has been featured in a few of my videos but I intend to do a sort of tutorial with a few templates as a guide.
This design is now on my must do list. Beautiful Bride will appreciate it and surely use this to brew her 3-1. If I get lazy, I may bring along some extra fuel and a few plain black coffee sticks instead of my usual drip system or cowboy coffee in the field. Please note that your excellent craftsmanship and your time to edit and post this video is appreciated.
Loving your channel. Great ideas. Reckon this one would also work well with a tin of butter beans or similar instead of potatoes, i think ive nade a soup like that before. I just tend to throw anything in when Im cooking 😂
Butterbeans would work I'm sure. Good suggestion. I'll give it a go later in the year when the weather gets a bit cooler. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching
It was a travel deodorant or shaving gell. Details here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r5O3OTJZeoU.htmlsi=3tXl8Vnj79EjySTG Thanks for watching.
Two very solid suggestions. Chilli works well as does onion. As is, they work well on a multi day hike but can be thought of as a blank canvas that you can add onion, cheese, paprika, chilli, garlic and anything else you can think of. Not necessarily all at the same time! Thanks for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts.
The bcb makes a good basis for a stove. More details here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_7xA6vMoksM.htmlsi=ljTwUF0ouh7RNTWP Thanks for stopping by and commenting
I’ve just discovered your channel. So happy I did. Love this kind of low key, no frills channel. This looks delicious. Will definitely give it a try. Look forward to going through your back catalogue.
It was the cap of the travel deodorant or shaving cream bottle I made the burner out of. I made graduations on it with a tippex pen that I had but a scratch shows up quite well
This is amazing i love tinkering with interesting ways to make tea or coffee while out and about. Great stuff, clever ideas i have seen. Warm greetings from The Netherlands!
Glad you enjoyed it! I have been playing with a Vietnamese Phin. It makes an interesting coffee. Lots of videos on youtube about them. Thanks for talking the time to comment.
Great little stove setup! I especially like the way the container is used as a windscreen. I personally can’t enjoy instant coffee packets. I have a Stanley French press thermos combo so I can pour my hot water over coffee grounds and drink right out of it.
I must agree that there's nothing more satisfying than making a decent cup of coffee in the great outdoors. The more involved the better as it allows you to slow down and take in your surroundings. French press makes a pretty good cup of coffee and I should look into upping my game by getting one. Thanks for taking time to comment
@EpicureanHikers, Admittedly, the French press adds quite a bit of weight over your system. Thanks again for sharing one of the best homemade “micro cook kits” I’ve ever seen.
Yes the other bottle holds fuel. About 20ml. The bottles probably came from one of those airport travel kits for take on liquids. I can't be sure as I have a box full of small bottles that I have collected over the years in the hope that they would be useful. Thanks for commenting
