Hey Solo Over 50!! Thank you for watching. I have great working relations with many companies and they are kind enough to send me products to test out and make videos for the viewers of RU-vid to learn from. Thanks again for watching and Happy Trails!!
I honestly wouldn't want any plastics near an open flame. Most plastics, even food grade, leech at about 80C, and since water is going to boil at 100C, then I wouldn't want any plastic unless I'm on a mountain top. Looks cool though!
I wish I had a solid answer on that but it depends on the stove you are using and the BTU output of that stove. Its within seconds of other pots that I use on the same stove.
Would it be good just for cooking Ramen for one person while backpacking? I want something I can cook in my tent in the wintertime without worrying about it boiling over and my titanium pot is too shallow for doing that. Was thinking of getting this or the 2.8 L X-pot cant decide which would be easier to eat out of.
+Bluedotism Thank you for your question. I would use it for Ramen noodles. Its a good size but you might find the shape of the kettle to be a little harder to eat out of than the larger pot. The kettle is narrower at the top than it is at the bottom so you will have a bit of an angle to get to the corners. On the other hand it will help keep the liquid from sloshing out of it better than the larger pot. As you can see in the video I cooked a Lipton/Knorr noodle meal in the pot and had no complaints. If I were using it more for boiling water I would go with the kettle. If I were cooking actual food in the pot I would lean more towards the larger pot. Hope that helps. HAPPY TRAILS!!
+JourneyToSelf-Sufficiency I have many stoves that I use but while I was testing the X Pot/ Kettle I was using the Olicamp ION. I will have a review on the stove soon. Nice little stove and well worth checking out.
Have you tested this on a Coleman stove???, I'm interested in getting this kettle cause of the collapsible and the space saver, but I would be using it on a Coleman stove
A light aluminum pot would be superior in my opinion. I never trust a seam where metal meets silicone. Aluminum pot never leaks. Put your food into your pot inside your pack. I just don't get this sort of "improvement."
