Another caution for using a Kelly/Ghillie kettle: Do NOT ever put it on the fire without water inside, or else the pot will melt / rupture inside. The water is necessary to cool the metal.

I’ve had propane stoves, alcohol stoves, white gas stoves and a Kelley kettle. I have ran out of fuel so many times I can’t count. But I have never ran out of fuel for the Kelley kettle. I can always count on the Kelley kettle.

I love the Kelly Kettle. I think they recommend that you take the bung off completely when you're heating water

A little kelly kettle tip: the base does get very hot, so to stop it scorching whatever its sitting on, use a plumbers soldering mat underneath.

Since I got a Kelly/Ghillie kettle around thirty years ago, I’ve never gone without it. Yes it’s bulky, but it’s lightweight and practical. I also have pockets full of twigs and moss in most of my jackets as I’m always picking up fuel for it so it can dry off !

I am about to get my first Kelly Kettle and I am very encouraged to gather my twigs instead of propane and butane cartridges

You can put a pinch of salt in the Trangia and will get a colored flame...you can also use a bit of paper towel twisted as a wick to lite a trangia in the cold. Thank you for your videos.

I think you capture something really important with that Kelly kettle--how much *fun* it is to build a little fire and feed twigs into it. It touches something primal.

Nick , I really like the fact that you leave the good parts and mistakes in your films. It gives a far more real to life / realistic presentation , of the 4 options in this càse. Thanks for your openness and honesty.

I have been using a Trangia for years and my fuel of choice is Methylated Spirit. Like LMazcraz said in his comment: the gel inhibited it's ability to vaporize the alcohol. Meths burns really hot and fully utilises the jets of the Trangia. I use the hiking kettle for boiling water myself. Great vids mate, keep up the good work....

The trangia loves meth sprits as the double wall is filled with a cloth based material so soaks it up and I brew up in mine in less then 10 mins with set up. Cracking Swedish stoves👍🏽

The Kelly Kettle comes in three sizes, makes it easy to find a size to fit your individual needs.

I believe using the gel in the trangia inhibited it’s ability to vaporize the alcohol. It looked as if the flame was coming from the top of the unit as opposed to the jet holes. I’ve seen where Heet works best. It offers a nice, hot, blue flame. In the end, all of the secondary ingredients in the gel, like aloe, won’t vaporize and burn off. They might just clog the wicking material.

Great vid as always. I love the trangia. When camping, even for 2 weeks this is all I use for all our hot water and food. Love sitting outside the tent early in the morning and boiling some water for a coffee in total silence, just listening to nature around.

From a US Marine to a Royal Marine, you didn't have pictures or crayons for the trangia. LOL!! Semper Fi sir!

Kelly Kettle lighting tip - tinder at the air inlet with kindling next to and over the tinder. Light through the air inlet with the kettle in place. Slightly fiddly, but the fire catches more quickly.

Kelly kettle system is far out the most versatile option. And no need to bring your fuel! Only downside is controling the power. This thing really goes to work. For medium heat coocking I use the hobo stove. Keep up this great content! Greetings from a Dutch guy.

Loved this video.My mate and I both in our 60s had great fun playing with my new twig stove ,last weekend. We were both impressed with how little fuel it took to boil a 2ltr. kettle. Something very satisfying in that cup of tea boiled with just a few twigs and leaves!!!!

In fairness to the Trangia stove, if you use bio ethanol (for which it was designed), then, when warmed sufficiently, the holes around the edge of the burner will light (bloom) and give you a much hotter flame. Hand gel will, I think, be too thick to flow through the holes into the outer chamber, and so light the holes. The other point is the height of the pot above the stove: your example looked much too low, stifling the flame further. While one may argue that it should be more versatile, consider that the MSR gas stove has legs to position the pot at exactly the right level. Great video, as ever. Love the simplicity of the big kettle and the versatility of the Kelly Kettle.

Could use 3 tent pegs for raising kettle above the trangia and a oven foil dish cut out into a wind guard to optimise the heating.

The Trangia is my stove of choice. Works really well when you use the correct fuel. I made my own wind shield out of aluminium beer cans. Works well even in wind. Takes a bit longer than my gas stove but I'm camping, not racing.

I am a great advocate for Trangia type stoves. I have been using my Crusader MKII cook system for about two years and it is the one I always have with me at all times. Use these little stoves correctly, they will serve you well.

Really enjoying your vids. Nice work! Top tip for the Stanley nesting pots is to cut off the melty plastic tab and replace with a split ring/key ring - which you can slightly undo when you use the pot and it stands off the lid for easy removal when hot. Keep the content coming buddy - very watchable.

I love the Kelly kettle, used mine loads. Also like the trangia, use the triangle with a wire frame cut from a coat hanger to hold the crusader mug etc. The trangia 27 kettle is great for when it's just me as it does not hold very much, about half a litre. Never thought of using hand gel in the trangia burner, used meths and bio ethanol as well as bcb Dragon gel, have to try that. Thanks for another great video.

I live in Norway and have found the tangos to be a very good choice in the winter as the canisters don't tend to like sub zero temps and occasionally dry sticks can be hard to find... Love the videos 😁

That Kelly Kettle is amazing! I’ve never seen anything like that. Great helpful tips on how to operate it as well. Enjoyed this video thanks!

My favorites , I've been using the Expedition Research kettle when backpacking. Last year switched to the Keith Titanium Kettle , packs even smaller and lighter with a larger volume. It's used with a Evernew titanium Appalachia set or a Firebox Nano Gen 2 ( titanium ) wood burning stove and a Evernew titanium alcohol stove as a auxiliary heat source. My alcohol stoves ( Including my Trangia's ) I only use Denatured Alcohol or a " Food Grade " ( Everclear ) 190 proof alcohol in them.

Really enjoy the full trangia which gives wind protection, also the gas adaptor makes it cleaner (though a bit noisy). My favourite quiet burn option is a woodgas stove, I use wood pellet cat litter when there isn't any dry wood available and start it with a cotton wool bud smeared in vaseline. If I'm out for a few days I go with a wisperlite with coleman fuel, heavy but maybe lighter than a weeks worth of alcohol that has a lower calorific value. An inverted cone made from one of those disposable aluminium turkey dish makes great insulation and saves the need to carry so much fuel too. Thanks for the channel.

I have the Stanley and use two type of fuel wood in an Ikea cutlery holder (Hobo stove) with a cut out at the bottom and two tent pegs to adjust the height, an gas bottle sits in side nicely also means it has a bit more protection, it is a bit big but never had a problem if I ever run out of gas, I have use the small kettle on it too, thanks for still showing the problems and not just showing the result, great videos Have even shared the link to your page on are scout Facebook page.

I just received my Ghillie and is highly impressed with this kettle. I tested it and it boiled 1,4 liter of water in just over 5 minutes! I used way too much wood and wasted about 60% of it. I guess I'll get to know my kettle as time goes by but for now, I am very happy with my purcahse.

Hi Nick. Great vid. I have a alpine kettle like that which I use in conjunction with a petrol Coleman’s sportster stove. It boils in around a minute and a half. Quicker than a jet boil in fact. Stay well.

Used trangia’s for years ( I have 27 set that’s 20 yrs old ! , couple of tips that might help , stick the burner in a pocket to warm up the brass , if the lid has a tight seal leave a tiny little amount of fuel in it as it keeps the wicking material moist ,lights easier and “blooms” quicker , another thing is the flame needs a “sweet” spot , about 25 mm ( 1 inch ) to get a hot enough flame . All the best mate

Another good tip is get the Trangia and throw it in the bin. Slow, bulky, heavy, expensive, and poor quality issues.

I'm a big fan of the Kelly Kettle, for making a cuppa on a coastal lunch stop while out on the Irish Atlantic Coast Sea Kayaking. Works very well in the wind and can get water boiling in minutes. . . . . .its great to carry Sea Kayaking for emergencies too when boiling water might be needed fast with hypothermia etc etc The Trangia Spirit burner is slower than most options, however, if you use it with a pot/ kettle with a diffuser ring underneath its significantly faster. It is a much more viable option then. There is something to be said for using a Traniga spirit burner with a more eco friendly fuel like bio ethanol, instead of using butane/ iso butane gas cannisters. Great video, thanks

Had a Kelly kettle for some years. After the 100th set of toasted fingers, it got repurposed into a target….. 🎯 Informative vid (hand gel tip was genius) thx 👍

Hi Nick, great video. I'm a proud owner of some Gillie Kettles. I even have an Mkettle to play with. Using the cork on the Kelly definitely not advisable but they have the whistle cap now just like my Ghlllies. Also another tangia user. A fantastic piece of kit. I'm also another one having a military past. And still in the TA. I always use my crusader for making brews and cooking in. And like you I think it is one of my favourite bits of kit, so much so I brought one for my daughter to use in the Army Cadets

In my never ending quest for the perfect kettle, I’ve accumulated a crate full. I like the GSI stainless so much I bought two of them.

I have been using trangia for 30 plus years, and always use metholated spirit, it has a higher burn temp than all the gel types I've tried.. I love the kelly kettles, but as you say, better for a larger group but love its multi tasking ability.. just a mention, Go outdoors do a small kettle that fits inside the pans of the trangia set which was a nice surprise!

Great video Nick. I have had a trangia 27 set for the last 32 years. ( The set has 2 pots a kettle, a frying pan a handle the burner and a wind shield for the burner) (Look them up on amazon or on Black's website) I still take it camping with me. I have had to replace the burner about 10 years ago. I use methylated spirits which I buy in a 5 liter container from a local veterinary supplier I then full up my 300ml trangia fuel bottle and carry my fuel that way. It lasts for days of camping and hiking. I have a kelly kettle which I use also. I onky have it about 2 years but I love it. You should have a look at the hobo stove attachment for it as a means of cooking with pots on the kelly kettle. I find it works well but you do need to put some stouter bits of wood in the fire pan to make a mini Swedish fire log in it, to keep it lighting without the draughting effect of the kettle itself! I only recently discovered your channel but love getting different ideas on bushcraft, camping, etc. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Keep up the good work.

Love this! Not much better than a simple mug!

Had a quiet chortle to myself, good video well in there. To date I've watched a few of your vids namely forest bathing... Building resilience... I'm sure you get the drift by know. Did do some good. Although not military, my industry mirrors a lot of the attitudes mentioned. Work in progress lets say. Power to yer elbow.

Hi Nick, The trangia stove is a great option. A cheaper fuel option you might consider is denatured ethanol. In Portugal it costs about €3/Lt. When using denatured ethanol, once you Have litten the stove, let the flame heat the stove so the fuel starts to vaporize. The flame will then start to come out from the jet holes. The kettle must bem placed around 2,5cm above the top of the stove, using a stand /wind shield of your preference. Works every time and it boils 1/2Lt of water in under 8 min. Have a go and tell us how it went. Cheers

Mk 1 stir stick hahahahah, Kelly Kettle is my go to winter kit, I have found that you need to be ready to pour your water and refill fast to get your meals ready. Yes the feeding of the Kettle is inner child even at 63..Good work like the camp cover, Try to bring the sides lower and build a center fire and watch the chute fill up and look like a big mushroom. A friend says he measures his fun by how many campfires he has built. Like your videos.

Thanks for showing us, Take care.

The Kelly Kettle has had a whistler plug for years now. Face to the wind, feed from the top and it's faster than high-tech gas options.

Love the Kelly Kettle, I got one last year. The new ones have a wistling stopper (you can get these seperate). On hikes ik Lways use a pop can stove with bio ethanol, its quite cheap at discound stores (under 2€ a liter). This dous however need a heat reflector this will also serve as windscreen, but also on the rare windles day's the refector makes a big difference.

Last year was my 'water kettle' year ... for some reason I bought: - GSI stainless ketalist (1L) - kelly kettle trekker (6dl), with hobo & cross stand - eagle products kettle (1.5L) the kelly kettle is by far the most voluminous and cooks the smallest amount of water. But, to be fair, it includes the stove. The GSI and the Eagle Products kettle (thats the one with the copper bottom) however are large enough to hold a gas cartridge and stove. To my amazement I usually wind up bringing my Solo Stove and Pot (0.9L) on hikes... it is as versatile as the kelly kettle, but much more compact.

Just stumbled across your channel recently and the content is absolutely fantastic. Keep up the good work I'm sure you will get many more subscribers.

Good vid. Personally my kit is classic hexi block. Packs into a Alli pot that has a plate/bowl as a carry lid, no idea of the brand but really cheap. 2 hexi blocks and 1 1/2 LTRs boiling in minutes. I never use a kettle when on my own or with just one other person as one pot does me/us well. Enjoying your take on things, crack on.

Love my Kelly! I jus got it and it’s going to do me just fine..

As I hiker, I’ve always felt that trangia is bulky item in the backpack. I’ve always gone with a smaller option of ultra lite gas’s stove made by Vango. At 73g it fits in the palm of my hand. It uses a 100g gas cylinder, which is interchangeable with any manufacturers cylinder that has a thread. In turn, all fitted into the billy with the plastic support legs for the cylinder to make everything stable. The Billy can 10cm, weight 550g which has doubled as a kettle. As my tent boasts vestibules on both side of the tent, it shuts out any interference from the wind.

Thanks for sharing, very unique kettles and light weight 😀

Great video man. I love my kelly kettle - it doubles up as a water bottle and has never failed me. Also the term 'pooch' is scots for a pouch. I've been told it's used a lot in the Navy - don't know why, probably just some weird nautical tradition.

Love watching your videos x

Humble trangia known and loved worldwide :) i use a stainless steel gsi kettle like that. Its extremely black from melting snow over the fire, its a great piece.

I've done the Hexy cooker and mess tin, I've done the crusader cup and base with hexy. I've done the pocket rocket with crusader mess tin, I've tried them all. And then I found the Jet Boil and my world was happiness and contentment. The ultimate (IMHO) compact water boiling system that does the job in minutes, be it making a brew or cooking a boil in the bag (and making a brew)!

Another great informative video 👍

Here in Brazil we have the option of pure alcohol gel, without additives, without aloe, used both for cleaning and for lighting barbecue grills and fire pits, sold in bottles of 500 ml or 1 liter. The hands sanitizer is graduate at 40°GL, and the standart alcohol gel sold here is at 70°, and sometimes we found ones at 92°GL. Burn strong and easy on spirit burners

I have the trangia stove as a backup to my optimus stoves (hiker 111 and optimus). Both stoves need priming and for that I use alcohol. But since the optimus stoves are so reliable I haven't used the Trangia for that purpose yet. Nice vid. And so you have a new subscriber.

I love Kelly, think the newer ones have a whistle in the bung so might be even harder to blow it up these days. Can use the chain through the handle to remove and also pour. For meths, pop into Home bargains, about £1.70 for 500ml. Love the Mk2 Crusader, the firedragon cubes are great fun. Recently discovered the mini cubes too, just bit enough for a cuppa :)

That camp looks amazing!!! I have camp envy. LOL.

My cooking/ brewkit options in no particular order. 1) Gas Stove combo. Have a setup from decathlon, cooking pot, gas stove . Tend to use it more if I'm just after a brew and and instant heat and eat . Simple, and lightweight . 2) BCB firedragon gel and stove. Again more for a brew only . Very lightweight, reliable and I have a small cup to go with and dirt cheap. 3) Trangia 27 with kettle. Mine is about 20 years old. Use it more for real food or in winter . Love it to bits nothing to go wrong . I used to own a Swedish army trangia mess kit, which is just an incredible bit of gear . Sadly it disappeared following a house move , the 27 is a substitute really . I could really do with a smaller cooker to go with the burner , something like the triangle or a crusader 2 , or something similar to the speedster stove setups . Kelly kettle is another thing on my wants list. It'll fit nicely in a rocket pouch on my big Bergen or take up half the yoke setup . But then I also want a firebox style stove as well,

A vargo converter burner as opposed to the Trangia is perfect for the bcb mk1 stove, lower profile and easy to put out makes it ideal

re: Trangia & handsanitizer gel - the Mythbusters (TV) famously say: "Failure is Always an Option!" Actually, I agree with their point that failures are wonderful teaching points!

I generally use my pocket rocket + msr titanium kettle/pan for this stuff but I do like the look of that kelly kettle. I can see it being very accident prone though. Thanks for all the awesome videos you've made on your channel here. :-)

I’d go for the Kelly every time. Yes it’s bigger to transport but if you run out of gas or meths in the out doors you’re suddenly carrying dead weight. A Kelly Trekker ( the little one) can boil 1/2 a litre with just a few sticks.

Love my Kelly Kettle when island hopping in a kayak - absolutely bulletproof in all weathers for prepping water, and maintaining a safe secondary heat source. It is also a very stealthy way to cook and boil water, and incredibly fuel efficient. Also love my various Trangia gear, with some (bought 2nd hand) still going strong after 50+ years ! However you do need to practice using them, and find a ‘proven’ fuel. Some biofuels have found to soot a lot. Great thing with Trangia is widely available, and plenty of options through accessories. Would recommend the Trangia mini kettle, as burner and my diy coathanger stand fit inside it to make a very compact brew kit...

Chris Mahon and Leopard X have valid explanations for the pronunciation of the word "Pouch." It was used when I was in training and accepted. I would say that the PWs pronounced the word as spelt emphasis on the - "ou" sound which is better. Then there is the Scottish influence. It is "Royal" being "Royal;" making a difference!

Ive got a spirit cooking set by Esbit. The burner is very similar to the Trangia one but it has a handle on the regulator so you dont need to improvise. also far easier to put out the flame^^

Great video Nick, i tried hand gel in my trangia and killed it because it ruined the pot by leaving a wierd alien deposit after the burn..i swear by metholated spirit with a tiny bit of water added to the spirit to reduce the sooting, my all time go to was a kelly kettle but i have gone to ghillie kettles now because they are adaptable and repairable.

I loved this this video as I have used all of these methods, and some other tweaks on your 4 methods. With the Trangear I prefer to use a homemade 2 aluminium drinks cans made in to a stove (with the paint removed form the aluminium) as brass on the Trangear absorbs more of the heat generated by the vaporised bio fule, you can pickup aluminium Tran nock off from China that works in much the same way. Also a favourite of mine too is the BCB Crusader MK1 Stainless Steel cup, I just found some one making and selling there own metal lids. Also like the US system because they supplied a metal lid. I think that it is important to mention that out of all of these methods including using a gas canister, the Kelly kettle, is the most dangerous, in my opinion as you can be lead in to a false sense of security with regular use, your tips for use were great, wish I had seen that video before the first time I used one. Well hope that this info is informative. And keep up the good work.

Ghillie kettle for the win every time. I take one evry time I go fishing and it never fails to get someone to stop and ask about it. For the long camp, I take my Samovar but the Ghillie is ready to go at all times.

Nick the Crusader burner is designed to burn fuel gel bud and it works well, not enough gap for the Trangia although you did show it does work, but very slowly. Another great option is the wood Gasifier stove, they are brilliant, only fuel needed is twigs, stainless and packs inside each other, quite small, exceptable weight, worth the small investment of around 20 pound through ebay.

I think maybe the problem with hand sanitiser as a fuel (as opposed to using it as an accelerant to light a fire) is that it generally uses isopropyl alcohol which doesn't burn as hot (or as cleanly) as ethanol. It's also typically only 70% or so alcohol with other stuff added eg water and glycerine to thicken it. B&Q do a 2L bioethanol container (think the brand is Hacienda) which the last time i bought one was £6 for 2L so even cheaper than meths and to my mind it burns cleaner. I have a feeling they may now do a gel version of this too. Good vid.
