The capacity of the stove is 20ml. In my experience it is enough to boil 1l of water without refilling fuel (obviously depending on wind, outside temp, etc.), if you want to be on the safe side and only want to build one stove I would recommend 30ml. You can also add some mesh as a cover for the filling material, again in my experience it doesn't add anything to it.

Hey Stripey! You said the stove was easy to make and you were right! This is excellent and I will be making one as soon as I can. It makes the Trangia look so big and heavy. Very functional, can’t wait to start using it. Thanks Stripey, I was going to buy one, but making your own is far more satisfying. ATB!

Ahhh more quality stripey content!

Hey Stripey. I'd love to see a video on how you dehydrate your food. Your channel is great.

8:13 I love the phrasing here

Thanks so much for doing this video, its going to help me alot 👍👍🙏

Thanks Stripey. Love your channel!

Fantasic demo & information :-) Thank you so much for taking the time to share* Sending well wishes from Scotland*

Great Info! Very Useful!!Thanks

Thanks Stripey, fascinating video. I have a Kojin stove that I use with an Evernew 600 pot and a Caldera Cone Sidewinder set up. The Titanium Sidewinder Cone rolls up and fits in the pot along with everything else. It’s expensive but i like it and

Wow yes ure perfectly correct stripey gas is good but for the meals ure preparing for ure nights out ure little cooker is perfect for heating water for ure tea ure coffee and ure dehydrated meals thanks for video friend

Looks a great little stove personally I prefer gas but for those who like alcohol stoves it's great

Thank you. Great video.

Thanks dude, this is awesome!

Awsum thank u, very interesting

Very helpful, thanks so much for all the info!

Thank you! Nicely done.

Great video Stripey😁..Really enjoyed it ..Great insight into the different types 😁..The first one is so lightweight 😁👌🏻 Cheers Robert

Thanks for idea!

The BRS flame is way to concentrated in one place so it's rubbish for stews, fried eggs and pancakes.. After 20 years of cooking on a Optimus 8R (Hunter) i switched to a Trangia clone. (MilTec) and use it for over 10 years allready. Never felt uncomfy with it and with the simmerring you can slow cook. The Kinjo type is nice for boiling smaller amounts of water for coffee or freezedried meals. Just my 2 cents.

Excellent idea to keep in car incase you run out of or forgot your gas stove.

Love the tutorial and definitely gonna make one myself. Could you please share the windscreen and pod stand that you use with it, Since this design looks like its performance would be hugely affected by any breeze. Thank you!

Like you say, the gas is easier to regulate, heavier yes but honestly, i’m not too bothered. So many people love the alcohol type and thats great but i just don’t feel happy usi g it, so gas for me. Love your videos, keep doing what you do stripey👍👌

Nice Stripey, I know the benefits of the alcohol stoves vs gas, but I prefer the latter now after a bad experience with how long the alcohol (in this case my trangia) took to cook food. I was on the Dungeon hills in Galloway during the winter, with a snow storm squalling from time to time. I really needed to eat before going to sleep but I could see more squalls coming over the hills and my tent was too small for cooking inside. Waiting for the water to boil (10 mins or a bit more) felt like an eternity as I watched the storm coming in - luckily I made it just in time. Since then, I've left the alcohol set ups at home. Likewise though, I've had gas (3 season) freeze on me before, leaving me unable to warm up with hot food. Decided that alcohol was the way forward until the above happened, haha! 4 season gas from then on.

Nice wee video Stripey. I'd end up mucking it up if I attempted to make myself one. 😆Not so much for a man of your talents. 😉 I'll stick to ordering them from Speedsters.

Enjoyed that, was interesting and informative. Have you seenstives made from beer cans, with holes trangia style? But I suppose they'd suffer with the same waiting to bloom problem 🤔also wondered if some of your ceramic wool would solve the spilling issue with the trangia? Look forward to your next video 👍😸

Cheers stripey.. i think u can add the carbon felt stuff to the trangia too to make it safer (if ur old school, or need the trangia to fit ur pot stand etc)... but i shall be knocking up one of these as well... cheers ATB

Excellent Stripey - I need one of those, Bio Ethanol Or Meth Spirits? (just because I have a lot of meth to use up, the purple stuff) Cheers 👍

Interesting setup. Just done a very cold wild camp -10c. Unfortunately, the gas stove failed!!, so I'm looking to try alcohol stove just for boiling water. Watched your other videos and would be interested in buying something simulator with the sane type of windshield if you could point me in the right direction on where to purchase a decent alcohol stove/setup. Thanks!

Hi stripey, Where did you get the ceramic wool? I guess it’s difficult to buy just a wee tiny bit?? Looks great though and I am going to put one of these together. Nice wee video mate! Paul

No mesh like the speedster stoves? I use alcohol, petrol and isobutane stoves but am finding the price of isobutane is going up and is often quite scarce. I can always get meths or bio ethanol though so am using either my speedster or trangia more often now. Last year we did a long walk in France and there were no screw on gas canisters to be had but there was always bio ethanol or camping gaz. In Scotland in May the prices of gas canisters were ridiculous. I have been thinking of making my own like you did. You can get the wadding used in home bio ethanol fireplaces and an old tea strainer makes a good cover to spread the flame a bit. The weight saving is huge as well.

Try paraffin oil in the Kojin stove.

Nice video! Can I place that particular wool into the trangia in order to make it spill proof?

Does the carbon wool one need alcohol poured in it to burn?

👍🏻

Silt question: why not just use the cab without a wick?

what if ceramic wool is applied in a trangia stove?
