1 correction. Carbon Monoxide (CO1) is heavier than Air therefore, like Cold Air, it gravitates to the lowest point (the floor). Setting your Carbon Monoxide Detector "Above" the stove, renders it useless. By placing the detector on the counter, next to the stove, you might detect some CO1. 2 Note. A Blue Flame always burns 100% of the Fuel with No CO1. Only a Yellow flame produces CO1. Candles, Camp Fires, etc. produce CO1. When welding, a Yellow Flame is known as a "Carbonizing Flame", where CO1 is adding Carbon to the metal. It also produces a Black Soot. A Blue Flame is known as an "Oxidizing Flame", which burns off carbon. Hence, no CO1. 3 Note. The are many many different Butane Stoves. The first thing I look for is the "BTU Rating". They run anywhere from 8000 BTU up to 15,000 BTU. Mine is 12,000. With that in mind, a can of Fuel will run shorter or longer, depending on the BTU Rating. Great little video. I learned a few things from it. Thanks for sharing.
Good info and advice. I have detected Carbon Monoxide with the detector seen in the video at the location it is in the video. Thank you for watching and the info.
Got an important question! I'm thinking of buying the "Shopylistic Portable Camping Stove" that comes with 4 Butane Gas Canisters! I also want to buy the "GREEN HAVEN Black Portable Camping Stove" as a backup! Are the butane cans interchangeable, or are they specific to the stove I bought them? They are all EN417 apparently! 2nd: are these safe to use indoors?
I use mine for the Coleman oven! It works great for baking while out camping while I use the Coleman one and two burner gas stoves for cooking. Great system if you like Glamping like I do!😂
You need to mention the BTU of the stoves various the one you cooked on is 15,000 BTU. The others are less than that and will take longer to cook and boil water. I personally have a 12,000 BTU stove, it does the same as yours, but my friends is 8,000 and takes longer. I personally recommend at least a 10,000 BTU, but higher the better.
Well now he doesn't need to because there is always literally thousands of experts in every comment section which makes you wonder why don't they make the video?
I would add one more criteria. Does your stove have the ability to use 1LB and 20lb propane tanks. The Gas One 10,000 BTU does not have the option, but the 15,000 BTU does, that is why I chose it.
Thank you for showing how to install the can. I was actually leery to try it, for fear of blowing something up if I did it wrong. So a big thank you for the lesson!
I’ve got one it’s served me well thru the years this is a great item to have at a flea market there about 20 to 30dollars don’t argue just buy one guyy
Every home should have two of these stoves and a supply of fuel and matches/lighters. Thanks for such a clear , straightforward, explanation of these stoves.
I've got 1, Coleman, single burner. 6 cans of butane, I suppose I need a few more. I've also got sterno camper stoves. I won't use them at the same time, indoors. I will cook indoor, with caution. I've also purchased a small charcoal grill, which is strictly outdoor.
I have the 1st one. It's came in handy many times during a power outage. Sometimes my wife will use it for canning if she runs out of room on the regular electric stove. That's one thing we don't stock up on is coffee. Never have a taste for it. But in the winter we like to hav a cup of hot chocolate 😊 nice during a power outage and ice storms.
Now every write-up that I have read about the stoves are not meant for indoors! Can you explain why a lot of people use these butane stoves inside their home if they're meant only for outdoors. Are they a toxic emission that happens when you use these?
Some stoves say they can be used indoors. The Chef Master in the video says it is for indoor use in restaurants and catered events. Many people use them indoors (myself included) because we have found them safe to use. That doesn't mean a problem with Carbon Monoxide can't happen, but it is not likely. I always have a Carbon Monoxide detector nearby. If I were going to a stove to use indoors, I would get one that other people have used indoors (RU-vid videos). And again the Chef Master in the video says it can be used indoors in restaurants. It is very important to use the Butane Stoves and any other similar type of stove in an area that has good ventilation and to have a carbon monoxide detector nearby. Alcohol stoves don't work as quickly, but alcohol is acknowledged by almost everyone to be safe to use indoors (in regard to Carbon Monoxide), but can be quicker/easier to have an accident and also the heat is less adjustable. Hope this helps.
Every ladder has safety stickers all over it, my 300 lb electrician laughs as he hauls himself and 20 lbs of tools up his 200lb rated ladder. Lawyers and companies covering their behinds.
I just bought a Gas One butane/propane stove like that. i like the option to be able to use a 1lb propane tank. Thanks for showing how good these work. -patty
Are there any advantages or disadvantages of a butane stove over a propane stove for emergency use? Let's say both stoves are the same brands and comparable price ranges and neither are duel fuel stoves. I'd be very interested in a comparable video addressing this question too. And ESPECIALLY FOR RV CAMPING use or Van Camping use. In Florida oftentimes people head out before a major storm hits and are waiting it out in a Van or an RV.
My unscientific thoughts are I'd rather cook in a van with butane than with propane but neither scare me, I'd just open a window or door on the van for either.
I personally don't think one has an advantage over the other as far as safety is concerned. Both types of fuel are used indoors safely with the right safety equipment and being aware that there is always a chance of Carbon Monoxide. Having said that, as far as a cooking stove only, I prefer the Butane because setting up and taking down as much easier (for me), the fuel cannister is easier to deal with and I don't have any external canisters or hoses in my way. As a fuel type overall, propane has far more uses when it comes to other items. So, I prefer Butane for indoor cooking, but I believe Propane is the best fuel choice if I had to choose just one fuel. Hope this helps.
I have several types of cooking stoves including multi fuel burners and a butane stove that will also work with propane and butane is very easy if it’s not too cold outside. After seeing your sausage and eggs 🍳 I will just say I will do my own, lol 😂😆😂😂.
I wouldn't say it is better, just another option. The fuel containers in my opinion are easier to use, but other than that I can't say that one is better than the other.
@@ChefPrepperit's kinda like no one listened to a bloody word you said. Least when humans trash the world to the point of no return it,ll clean up the gene pool immensely. Sorry mate it's so frustrating reading comments like these. They literally have the answer at the tip of their fingers but why research when you can ask questions that were answered three times.😮💨✌️🇦🇺
Thank you for providing the checklist. I am considering getting a butane stove. I do have a camp stove, and a large propane burner, but I think the butane burner is more appropriate for a pot of coffee! I think it will actually be a good compliment to other cooking devices, for multiple reasons.
I do the pour over method of coffee making everyday. Used to use a more expensive brand but, as a strong coffee lover I've switched to Cafe Bustelo 😂 Now the stockpile is huge!! Thanks for your videos. You helped a migraine person So Much because now that I learned about Fire Dragon stoves from you can make coffee anywhere.
I have been using one of my several Coleman more often these days as I have discovered from watching RU-vid presentations that they work very well on modern premium gasoline at 1/3 the cost of Coleman whitegas fuel..
Propane stoves seem to have a larger range of Carbon Monoxide release than the Butane stoves (only my opinion), but there are also many different Propane items made for indoor use. So, just for me, I will use either one, but I make sure to have a Carbon Monoxide Detector in the area and I check it from time to time to make sure it works. To test it I put it near my car exhaust.
Most people do not have solar and most shtf don't last more than a couple of weeks most a couple of hours unless it's financial. In a real shtf those panels are gonna be like kaka to flies. But you can hit your bunker then. Real world problems aye.✌️🇦🇺
G'day mate, I have 2 stoves, here in Australia it's winter time now I've got mine out the front door, I just take the the can and put between my legs or arm-pit to worm up the can if it's cold 🥶 and it works cobber 👍🇦🇺🦘🦘🦘
No offense meant but your carbon monoxide detector looks old. They only last 5 or 6 or 7 years. I recommend you dispose of it and get a new one. (Smoke detectors are only good for around 10 years). Safety 1st.
No . Butane is very exspencive , compared to LPgas . I've been offgrid for 7 years . I have a regular cook stove ,oven . Does not need vented . But you do you .
Your likely using natural gas, lpg is pressurized different making it burn dirtier. Hence everyone not dropping dead or running cm testers every time they cook. All gases all different. Perhaps recheck that one you might be slowly poisoning yourself.😵✌️🇦🇺
