  Sarah &amp; Josh - I have the same size Trangia which I have carried hiking for over 40 years. I use metholated spirits (alcohol) exclusively. Fabulous stoves / cooksets. The original meth / alcohol burner will boil water, cook pancakes and everything in between. I purchased the kettle in which I keep the burner, handle, matches, scourer and washing detergent. I dilute the metho with water between 10 and 20% - this helps reduce carbon on the pans, allows me to manipulate burning temps to tweak such for specific purposes eg: a little less heat for pancakes even when using the simmer cap. <br><br>Hiking: One carries the cooker and fuel - One carries the tent.<br><br>If the alcohol burner is left (ignored) long-term and the metho dries leaving crud deposits behind - soak for a few days in vinegar to clean everything up nicely 🙂<br><br>The only issue I have ever had was waking up one morning, at a few too many degrees below freezing, to find the metho (alcohol) would not ignite. Solution: use gas - or - stowe your metho cannister in the end of your sleeping bag with your boots - coz&apos; ya&apos; dont wanna&apos; be gettin&apos; up on a cold morning to find your boots frozen. There are some things you only do once &nbsp;😉😉

  Thanks guys, that was a great video, and helped me immensely. It&apos;s hard to visualise how new gear fits into your own set up, however the way you filmed and talked about the stove was relatable and clear, showing real-world use with great close-ups to see how well it works.

  Awesome video, from someone who has never used a Trangia, but has been considering one for longer cycling trips.

  I recently purchased the 27 version with kettle and hard anodized pots and fry pan for bike touring (# philosophy of use). &nbsp;Love it to death. &nbsp;You two really nailed the pros and cons of the storm cooker. &nbsp;My main reason for buying mine was so that I could SAFELY cook within the confines of my tent vestibule. &nbsp;Sadly, everything here in Canada costs significantly more than in other parts of the world (weak CAD? perhaps). &nbsp;Love your channel - new subscriber. &nbsp;Cheers from Montreal QC (Canada)

  If you rub fairy liquid on the underside of your pans before you cook , the soot just rinses off after 👍

  I had one as a birthday present back in the 80’s. It here were only four variations in those days -25, 27 and both of these with K -kettle. I had the kettle which gives you a very cute but completely unnecessary kettle. Over 30 years later it is still going very strong. We don’t use it much now as it’s only a single person stove realistically. It didn’t have a hole for the gas in those days and the top half of the windshield didn’t fix on. This does make it easier to take the top off when warm. We are considering going back to a larger trangia now there are just the two of us as the kids don’t come on tours anymore and we don’t need the large pan set we used to use.
