Ranked #302 - Canister Stoves
April 5, 2010
I love my jetboil pcs.
Went to yosemite with me and on several multiday outings. I really enjoy the speed with which I can set up, cook, eat, clean, and stow this cookset.
The efficiency of the burner is a huge plus. I find myself using much less gas than my companions even at high altitude. The canisters are a bit bulky when empty and packing out, but I can live with the minor inconvenience.
The french press kit is is a huge hit in the morning, both for coffee and loose tea.
I do pack a small piece of blue foam pad with a reflective surface attached to it for cooking in cold weather just to keep the canister from freezing up.
Pick one up. You won't regret it when you're sipping hot fresh coffee before your campmates are.
