Cool setup here

I'll have to try that.
Thank you for the link.

Brilliant ! Is it your setup? I would of thought the larger lap would burn dry or ruin the Ali though with nothing in there...?

I tried this and it's very good, but......see instead of three stones ? if you're going to the bother of lugging the trangia and pots, cut down three wee tins or use the little ones that pate or cat food comes in, and use them to prop the pot upon.
Nice and even and no unexpected bangs
I washed out and dried the little plastic lidded granose pate tins and use them to store stuff in too so no wasted space
One holds the dried fruit and another the sugar and spice for my baking

cheers,
M

I've done this but used SS wire scourers instead of stones... light, small and dual purpose (but no good on non stick pans)

Oh that's a good idea

If I covered my trangia burner, below the threads, and around the base with neoprene would it burn ?

I have touched the base before and it did get a bit hot.

 

[Melonfish]

Nope, i don't see it, no matter how much you bake a trangia it just won't taste any good...





oh.. wait.

 

[mousey]

Nice, I'll have to remeber that one.

I would not try that with my ali set. Tho if you look at what he is using it is a big billy can not part of Trangia set, may be stainless but can not tell

I've learnt my thing for today - after a bit of googling I now know what a Panzerotti is. If I'd had to guess I'd have said a German WW2 tank driving opera singer"

I've used this trick over an open fire a few times. Made lasanga once...

I *think* I got it from the old "Roughting it easy" books.

Guess I must have done something really wrong when I tried it as I managed to melt both Trangia pans!!

Note that they used a pot at the "skillet" level, with the simmering ring on. Was that how you did it as well?
