Thanks for this, this is the only review I could find for the evernew pots that covered specifically what sized isorpo cans would fit in what. Very useful as I was about to buy one that wasn't large enough!
Gotta be a certain age to remember the end song Bob! Lol. Great video Sir and very helpful. I've always used my trusty Trangia but have taken a liking to the lightweight bug recently so am watching your videos excitedly!
omg. the drum solo was unexpected but very much appreciated. lol good review i just bought the 750ml stacking set with a caldera cone recently im very excited to get the package
A good review. I bought the solo set after watching it. It is used often and very good but after a while the lid not sitting 'securely' really gets infuriating.
I have used the Evernew 900ml flat pan for years as my solo set, and I use a larger MSR for hikes with my spouse. I lost one of the handles somewhere, and being a mini-hoarder, I noticed one day I had some aluminim grounding wire that is the same guage as the original handles. So I shaped it to be the same shape as the original handle, then covered it with red heat shrink to insulate it, and have used it once and my new two-tone handle seems to work as good as the original. Even with the 900ml flat, I don't like the way the flame from the DX Pot stand licks around the edges as I think there is significant heat loss from a flame profile like that, so I assume the taller pots would be a problem in that regard as well.
These look great thanks for the upload, and I wonder if you or anyone here can show a pan which has been used several times and how easy or not they are when it comes to sticking, AND, can anyone show these getting washed in camp or when at home? Take care mrbluenun
ive heard that they are thinner because these evernew pots are cold-pressed, and can therefore be made thinner and more durable, also lighter. i heard this from the guys at prolitegear (i dont know them at all). i finally got a hold of someone at evernew and someone reluctantly admitted this. why this isnt a huge marketing push for them is beyond me. cheers.
I know this great review was a long time ago but please can you tell me where in the UK I can find these. Unfortunately, with the opening of mundane high street outdoors stores, Blacks and Millets. Where have all the specialist trekking/camping stores gone? Any assistance welcome. Many thanks, Andrew.
Great ending! ahahahahah I just got a new Pot and pan combo, super stoked on how the pan cooked eggs! However, I tried rice in the pot and was alarmed at how it burnt the rice and stuck to the pan. I guess the titanium is just too thing for heat transferring heat. However, for regular soup and other cooking. Thank you for the great review but you forgot the alcohol set! ahhahhaha
Actually Titanium is a very poor conductor, therefore heat applied to it transfers directly through it, which creates hot spots and potential of burning food. Aluminium and cast pans distributes the heat making them more suitable for 'cooking'. This is why Titanium pans are good for rapidly boiling water. If you decide to cook in them you need to keep stirring and keep the heat low.
@TheOutdoorsStation HAHAHAHAHA! I did not expect that at the end. Very professional review, thank you. I was wondering would 640ml pot and pot from solo set accept wide mouth Nalgene bottle? Thanks.
does anyone here in 2020 still using the nonstick version of evernew pot and able to confirm how you doing with the pot and the coating itself? is the coating worn off already? and also how do you treat the coating surface when you're planning to stack other smaller pot to be put inside? do you cover the outside of the small pot with something to avoid the smaller pot scratch the coating of the bigger pot? is it recommended or just stack it like default without any cover?
Will one of the pot 750ml or 900ml with fry pan fit the little evernew woodstove and a 110 gas cannister? That would be a great combo. You could cook something and fry at the same time.
I see that these pans come in a regular and a non-stick coating. Does the non stick coating wear off over time? How durable is it? Do I need the non stick? What do you recommend? I'm concerned that if I get non stick that it will wear off etc. Thank you!
That makes me curious, I wonder what the thickness of my Evernew pots are vs some of my other ti pots (MLD & BC). Ti pots are usually thinner than Aluminum pots (which is why they weigh less) but now I'm curious about different ti pot's... Also, the shorter, squat pots are more fuel efficient than the taller skinnier pots simply because the flame is maintained better under the pot rather than licking up the sides and being wasted. And yeah...I ordered the 0.6L (ECA251)...like I needed it... :)
Fantastic review! Thanks. :-) Finally, pots that have metric measurments! :-) These are also the only titanium pots I've found that have insulated handles. The only other pans I've seen with insulated handles are aluminium alloy. I'm not keen on aluminium because it dissipates the heat too quickly, so it uses a lot of fuel to keep the contents hot. Sorry, thumbs down to the ending. I can't stand Phil Collins' songs. That one's especially depressing. :-(
Titanium transfers heat extremely well, but it doesn't defuse it across the pan like iron or aluminum does for example. So titanium is great for boiling water, but if you want to cook food you will burn the part that's right over the heat source. What isn't over the heat source will remain uncooked or under cooked. Snow peak's titanium cup is the perfect use for titanium. You will only boil water in it, and it's lightweight for travel. Titanium pans are a bad idea.
TheOutdoorsStation Or get an aluminum pan: 1. Costs less then expensive titanium 2. No need to keep the heat low if you don't want to 3. No need to keep stirring just to prevent burns. You can stir when you would normally stir at home. 4. Aluminum is still light weight for travel. Titanium for boiling water - Yes Titanium for cooking food - Doesn't make any sense, both economically and in terms of usability. For making tea, coffee... or clear soup, I guess its ok.
Aluminium cooking pans have been linked with Altzimers whereas Titanium is inert. Titanium will also last a lifetime, Aluminium has limited life. Ultimately it is the consumers choice. We have 100's of customers cooking with Titanium pans without issue, maybe your demands from your cook system is suited to a certain diet. Either way, the statement 'not' to use them indicates inexperience before passing judgement.
TheOutdoorsStation From the Alzheimer's association site - Alz.org: "Myth 4: Drinking out of aluminum cans or cooking in aluminum pots and pans can lead to Alzheimer’s disease. Reality: During the 1960s and 1970s, aluminum emerged as a possible suspect in Alzheimer’s. This suspicion led to concern about exposure to aluminum through everyday sources such as pots and pans, beverage cans, antacids and antiperspirants. Since then, studies have failed to confirm any role for aluminum in causing Alzheimer’s. Experts today focus on other areas of research, and few believe that everyday sources of aluminum pose any threat." And I never said - 'not' to use them. I said to use them only for liquids because if you use them for solids, you will burn the part that's over the heat source because of the properties of titanium. And I am speaking from experience, I used a titanium pan and a titanium pot in my hiking trips. Nowadays I use a seasoned aluminum pan, a stainless steel pot and I do still carry my titanium double walled cup for liquids.
I gotta say that titanium does NOT transmit heat as well as aluminum. Thus you get hot spots from your stove flame. I use a 3 cup pot anodized aluminum pot that is WIDER than it is high for maximum efficiency. My little aluminum skillet is ceramic coated W/O the handle B/C I use pot grippers. I place ti pots and skillets in the same category as frameless packs - less functional status symbols. And that also goes for hiking poles that have had the handle straps removed by unwitting gram weenies who think they are there only to keep the poles on. Science wins every time but fashion is a strong motivator.
You are mostly correct in your comment Eric. Titanium is a poor conductor agreed, whereas Aluminium is a good conductor. In practise this means that heat passes through the titanium and doesn't spread much, hence 'hot spots'. Whereas Aluminium 'dissipates' heat wider, spreading out the heat across the surface and therefore makes a better cooking pan. The main reason aluminium has fallen out of favour as a raw cooking surface is health related. Titanium offers similar or lighter weight for similar items, however yes one does need to keep in mind that stirring food is compulsory. As for the the 'trend' well everyone has similar comments about all kinds of outdoor gear and we are all entitled to our opinions.
Shawna C. They are also the heaviest and bulkiest. The point of this video is to show lighter options which may suit your outdoor cooking aspirations and save bulk and weight at the same time.
