Me and Stanley are great together lol.love me Stanley.

Martin. As you know I LOVE Stainless Steel.... Old Tech sometimes is the best Tech. Great video as usual. Love the confusion you convey when the timings are done. I'm away out tomorrow to brew a cuppa. looking forward to it. And yes, Stanley is coming with me....

8:19 Per the US manufacturers specs the Jetboil Stash pot and heat exchanger are aluminum. Only the stove head is titanium despite the price.

Hi Martin, I use a Fire Maple heat exchanger (FMC-XK6 Aluminum) pot similar to your one in conjunction with a Pocket Rocket 2. Based on my Scouting days, we used Trangias. Whilst I appreciate they are good in the sense of a complete cook set, I just cannot bring myself to use the burners now. The thoughts of carrying meths and the mess puts me off. What does cause me some little concerns is the risk of contamination from the anodized aluminium but Fire Maple seem a reputable manufacturer. Take care Adrian

Did the pot holders on the stove not line up with the slots on the Fire maple pot? It would have moved the pot base closer to the flame if they had and may have changed the boil time.

It's all about the girth! 😂 Interesting results but ultimately only a minute difference between the fastest and slowest. I noticed your Firemaple has slits in the exchanger ring. Are these for gas stove arms to fit in and bring the stove head closer to the pot base? There's another video: are boil times affected by the distance of a gas stove to the pot base and does it make a difference then if you have an exchanger or not? Also how good are exchangers in windy conditions versus more traditional pots? 👍

Very interesting results. Thank you for doing the test.

I wonder how would it be with lets say soto windmaster or some kind of gas burner to see if its kinda the same hmm

Hi, thanks for sharing. I thought the Heat exchange version pots/ kettles were more FUEL EFFICIENT, and not faster?!

Hi Martin love these test video's 😀 i too am obsessed with stoves keep em coming 👍

Good test! I've got the stanley you have there and people are always surprised how fast I boil water. Was planning to switch to a titanium pot this year to save weight, but now you've got me double thinking that...might just stick with my stanley 🤣.

Fantastic work man, stoves are really important and I understand why you pay so much attention to them.

Cheers for that Martin.like you I thought the Stanley would take longer to boil.mate,I can't justify buying another cooker😅

Very helpful, your video came along, just as I'm looking to purchase a new stove and pots

Hi, what do you think of that larger Stanley pot you used at the end? Looks a bit heavier

Top stuff Martin. You looked genuinely confused by the results! Want to buy my titanium pots? 😅

Maybe a test using the most efficient burner, pot, with caldera cone and also most efficient alcohol fuel....or maybe just use what ya got. Thanks for an enjoyable video.

Hi Martin, really interesting video with very surprising results! 😮 I, like you, believed that heat exchangers were the best and bought the fire maple one because of that! Oh well, still a good pot nonetheless. I also bought the Goshawk stove after watching your first class review of it, love it, so many thanks for that. Mind you wasted quite a while searching for the "Goosehawk stove!" 😉😂

No aluminum for me.

Interesting results! To my mind the heat exchange should also act as a wind defender so like @snowcelt I'd be interested in an outdoor test. Anyway I think you've officially earned #supergeek status now 😂

Martín, thanks for your great videos, please keep on posting. In the 'Ultimate Alcohol Stove Battle' you used a 'BRS Infrared Heating Cover' to give stoves the same space for the test. Does this gizmo help transfer heat to a larger part of a cup / pan and stop burning at the centre? And in a tent heating mode, does it kick out a lot of heat? I want to move to cooking outdoors rather than using dehydrated meals, and the flames from my MSR deluxe are very concentrated, great for heating up water, but could it give better results cooking with the BRS add on?

Are you going to do a review of the Garmin gps67?

👍👍👍 .. a nice comparison 😊. 'Boil Times' .. after 74 Summers, no longer the Alpha / Omega .. 'efficiency' being now more important to me (that's why I like my Trangia and it's adjustable 'snuff ring'). My Pots / Mugs / Cookware are of Stainless Steel and Aluminium. Mainly because some I have had a very long time, are paid for and my pockets are not deep enough for Titanium. 'GearSceptic' on You Tube has done some interesting and 'Myth / Mantra-Busting' Testing on 'Boil Times', 'Efficiency' and more. Well worth a watch. My first ever Alcohol Burner was a 'White Box Stove'. Got it many years ago. Lightweight, does not need a pot stand and it puts out a flame that'll equal that of Krakatoa. Better suited to larger diameter pots though. It's quite a thirsty little beast but still in use .. residing in my Aluminium Trangia-Clone Kettle. Thanks for sharing .. take care ..

hi, I enjoyed the video, i did a recent experiment like this here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fKxdjc2b0aqchYU.html I found what made the biggest difference to the fire maple was the distance away from the flame. i suggest you repeat it with the burner the same distance from the pot base, the heat exchange pot then should be ahead, it was for me.
