Whisper Sweet Kettle Talk to Me

[mewolf1]

Putting soap on the pot or kettle BEFORE you use it makes soot clean-up easier. The blackness never bothered me though, kind of a badge of useage

I've heard of that before, though always thought the soap would burn or melt off.

My only gripe the carbon build up is if there is no bag for the pot/pan/etc, then your stuff gets all sooty. I guess just reduce how much fat wood you use and keep the fire nice and hot.

[/IMG]I have a Tatonka 1.5 liter tea kettle. Has a nice screen filter that slips into the top. Stainless steel, wide bottom and light weight. I am really liking this kettle over the GSI because of the durability of stainless vs aluminum and the screen for loose tea.

My Primus LiTech 1.5L kettle arrived today. I think it's going to pair nicely with my Emberlit stove.

Tatonka makes some very nice stuff! It can be very difficult (or pricing with overseas shipping) to get here in the US though Lucky you though!!

I had the small primus years ago but gave it away, i don't remeber why. About a year ago I bought the GSI aluminum kettle and I like it better so I won't be giving it away!

My trangia fits inside the plastic cups that came with the GSI kettle. This way the trangia doesn't scratch the inside of the kettle. I only use it with a fuel stoves so can't comment on cleaning off wood fire residue.

It's just right for 2 people imo.

I'm still looking for a better stove stand. I might try the Emberlit next.
