Finally worked out how to upload a picture in a thread.

This was the glowing embers from my cooking on the Lixada stove cooked. I did Haggis and mash with a caramelised onion gravy it was wonderful.

I've found with the heat logs you get a wonderful cooking heat for about an hour and they fit nicely in the Lixada, they're a pain to get started from cold though so if you pour a little bit of meths on the "cut" end of the log it expands and you can light it from there. I've taken to taking these for overnighters as where I go there is little dead wood and at this time of year it's drenched. (4 logs fill 1/3rd of a rocket pouch.)

Let’s see some of those cook sets in use.

My Stanley cook set on an old Natit (Esbit) burner making an evening cuppa.
I like the modified handle. How have you hinged the handle to the jubilee clip? Does the tube attached to the jubilee clip have a shoulder on it to prevent it from coming loose? I recently added a wire handle to my Zebra pot using copper ferrules.

I’m using the female ends of Chicago screws. So, yes they have a lip that rests under the holes I drilled in the hose clamp. Then just used coat hanger wire to make the bale.

And afterwards you can try this.


Because I am outstanding lazy I usually use instant coffee, but I own the GSI mesh coffee filter UL and used it on several tours with colleagues and it works fine.

It fits under a lot of usual gas cartoushes.

yeah I use instant as well As I am Lazy, but I do love real coffee, and short of taking a French press everywhere or spending more than I feel comfortable with I haven’t found a good way to make a decent drip coffee in the woods yet!

I used it only with ROUND mugs though and as I am currently not able to reach it, I unfortunately can't tell you if it clips well on a kidney shaped mug.
