Hi Mark. Excellent review. I've had this pot for about a decade cooking buckwheat, meat, veggies. Pro tip --> toss a small stainless washer in and it will rattle when water is close to boiling out.

That's a n awesome tip!

Mark as always great video. I have had this same rice cooker for quite awhile. I've dry bake by using a silicone muffin pan. Also fyi I've bought a vegetable grill sheet " silicone " like what you see advertised on television,, so that while grill on you BBQ cooker at home in order too not allow VEGGIES like green oinion or asparagus too fall into the fiery briquettes below. Putting this mat on top of you diy dollar store spacer plate makes the best nonstick fish/ frog oven grill. I've used both small stones as well as small amount of water to bake fish and frog. Also one more tip..I use also the firebox Nano for this setup. If you raise up the Nano's grate and set your Trangia on the ground it will give you a much more controllable heat. I use a micro thermometer in order to check if I need to open or shut the the Trangia adjustable lid for accurate temperature cook. I hope these? Hacks? Helps you use your Keith ((rice cooker))! As you have always helped me too understand outside the box of understanding.

You have the best thrift stores. Many years ago I went to a nutritionist who taught me how to control my blood sugar by reading carb counts. The first time I read how many carbs were in 1/4 cup of rice I quit eating rice. I don't understand how Asians stay thin eating loads of rice. 1/4 cup is more than 3 servings of carbs, and I would still be left hungry. I don't know if I will buy one of these, but I don't think the price is outrageous either for all the tech put into it. It's well thought out.

I'm also a happy user of Keith Multifunctional Titanium Cooker. I also use it for baking, like you demonstrated.

Looked at purchasing one of these a few times but as I mainly use gas I’m able to simmer my rice and burning is less of an issue. I use the volume 2/1 method,water to rice and on low heat coat the rice in a tiny bit of oil and cook in a skillet with a lid until all the water is absorbed, makes perfect rice. This isn’t a cheap item in the UK either.

When using an ordinary pot, I boil water, add salt, add rice. Let it SOAK for 10+ min. and the rice will absorb the water. Reheat to steam and you're done. No burned rice on the bottom and perfectly fluffy and less fuel used. P.S. I also add Chinese pork sausage to my rice because that's the way I rock! 😎😍😎

@@MarkYoungBushcraft It's titanium, so I doubt you'd get residual flavors afterwards. Lonewolf902 posted his preferred method of cleaning scorched food from titanium ware via putting it in the fire (demonstrated no warping, etc.) - ymmv but I've done similar with my MSR stainless cook & stow pots without issue. I'll have to test wood chip smoking in a spare titanium vessel and if it works, maybe I'll try smoking fish in the Keith Multicooker. Here's Lonewolf902's link: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJqrldqfn8yudqQ.html

Just off the top of my head, here's a list of possible other uses for the device: 1. Cook fish 2. Egg mixtures like quiche 3. Dumplings/pot pies 4. Dehydrated meals (ref "Backpack Gourmet" by Yaffe) 5. Wood pegs for straightening, wood bark (e.g. cedar strips) for weaving baskets, chair seats etc. 6. Medicinal ingredients like Arnica for making salves. 7. Lentils, sprouts, barley etc. 8. Anything foraged in the wild that you want to sterilize.

Good info, Mark. I have my doubts about cooking meatloaf with inner pot, though. Baking it just like muffin without the inner pot might work better. With the inner pot cooking it vertically would cook the meat throughly but I don't think you would get the brown crust on top as you did end up with the sloppy mess. Let us know how it turn out. Expensive as hell but a good gear. Thanks, Mark.

Looks fun, I like the concept, but while hiking I lean more towards minimal gear, and this thing is way to complex when I can simply cook 1 cup of rice in a 550ml toaks cup on an alcohol burner in 15 minutes for about 2ounces of weight, with maximum versatility

Thinking aloud; I wonder if resting a large coin over the lid hole would increase the pressure enough inside the pot to cook at altitude. The coin should not block the hole just create sea-level pressure so water boils at 100°C, not below. May be very valuable to those in the high mountains.

Seems like it might be possible to cook a chicken thigh like you would using a can cooker. The meat would be suspended above the liquid and during the time of boiling the steam would cook the chicken. Then if you wanted to have the skin browned you could always place in fry pan or debone and make chicken soup. Just a thought.

Seems to me that Keith is pushing the envelope in titanium gear price to see what the market will stand. So much can be done with so much less expensive gear. Especially when modifications and additional parts are added to the original gear. Which, it seems, is what you have done here anyway. Still a good review Mark.

Different rices take different ratios of water. So there’s no way using a fixed rice to water ratio via the built-in measurements in this pot will result in optimal cooked rice across all types - you might end up with a soggy, sticky rice. That said, does the double-wall nature increase or decrease the amount of water one would typically use, or can you comfortably just continue to use the same rice to water ratios you’ve used with a conventional pot setup?
