Thank you! The red will be a handsome edition to your arsenal. And I will be using this a lot more. Though I think pairing it with the triangle. Maybe. Not decided. I would have reviewed it sooner but I ordered the wrong sodding thing from Trangia and then life got busy.

Can’t wait to see you use it with one of your recipes. 👍

Just ordered a micro to add to my Trangia kit. I’m still reeling at the idea of cold soak pasta, and so your recent videos have got me fired up again to cook real food outdoors again. Thanks for the inspiration Thom 👍 Cheers Pete

Great review - thanks! And I agree that it’s a really handy piece of equipment. I intended to use mine mostly for water, tea and coffee, but nice to see that you can actually cook on it, as well. And with the modularity of all Trangia products, it’s good to be able to use it with Esbit tabs, gel, spirit or gas (on the Triangle, where it actually fits perfectly). And now Trangia actually has several light and small-sized options for those who want to just boil water or cook the most basic stuff: Micro, Mini, small mess tin + triangle and kettle + triangle. All good options. And if you store it in a small storage bag, which I always do, then bringing the mini’s frying pan is really practical and doesn’t take too much space.

Looks good! I like the micro I just don’t know if I’d ever rather take the micro instead of the mini if I’m going small. What I’d really love to see is trangia make is a slightly smaller kettle that I could fit inside the mini if you take out the burner stand. That way you could have a pot, small kettle, and small fry pan and just use the triangle as the stove stand. Still a great addition to the trangia lineup though 👍

I agree. I think if they added a pan I would take it. That said. The mini is ready to go! And when paired with a small pot gripper like one from msr it’s perfect. A mini kettle or second smaller pot would be great to make the mini that little bit extra.

Great vid thank you Having a permanent handle is great, for the reasons you mention with the mini. I heard the more substantial handle of the larger set will grip in the mini, thats something im gonna look into.

Nice review! And was just served your video thanks to a shared interest in these Trangias. Looking forward to trying some of your recipes. If Trangia would just make a thin windscreen that could wrap up and stow away inside the micro pot! Easy enough to make from a large soda or beer can, though. Ah well. Then we’d run out of complaints for Trangia. I could recommend some titanium pans from Toaks or Evernew, but trying to cook in Ti pans is such a horrible experience.

I have a video on Ti pans that might help. And thanks for coming over and taking a look at the channel. I really appreciate it. A trangia windshield would be amazing. I wonder why they haven’t done that yet. Especially as it’s the windshield on their larger models that makes them so incredible.

Just got the micro myself. Not used it yet but love it’s compactness and will complement the mini. About a possible frying pan. After watching your vid I’ve just gone through my gear and found that the lid of a Snowpeak pot works well. It’ll need a strap etc as it doesn’t have the ‘click’ factor. The pot size for the Snowpeak is their 32oz. I got mine from Wildbounds, I think.

That set-up is similar to the Evernew Appalachian Set with a few significant differences. The Evernew set is titanium and weighs 200 Grams. The burner stand can take Esbit tablets, twigs, or the spirit burner. It is really efficient in it's use of fuel and a bit better wind protected. 500ml pot is rimmed to fit the stand. If I had your Trangia set I wouldn't switch, but I do have the Evernew and won't switch.

It pokes out of the top unfortunately. And I agree about the kettle. Though I always envisioned it being a tiny kettle into the mini pot. Maybe your idea makes more sense! Hello from Cornwall.

I have two 27s and a Mini. I am quite interested in this pan which can be bought separately so that the burner and stand from the Mini can become a Micro. However, the stand borders on dangerous in the wrong conditions. I've had a run away "jet engine" with flames to waist height. Once you start to carry a separate windshield, you may as well carry a 27 and just leave out the bits you don't think you'll use.

@OffTheBeatenPot

I hear what you saying. I’ve not had it quite severe but it can flare up. I would disagree with you in the wind shield. Mine folds up so small that it’s no inconvenience whatsoever to use. And it does make a difference to the small flame thrower effect. But as you already own an arsenal of Trangia stoves. I understand why you may not want to get one. I ordered the pot only. But beware. There are two pots. One with a handle. One without. I ordered incorrectly the first time

@mikefule330

I'll add to my own comment, this video just inspired me to get my Mini out and boil up some water on the patio. (I use my 27 several times a year for cooking on my dinghy.) Even with barely any perceptible wind, I had to watch the flames. However, once the water was more or less boiling, I experimented a bit more with the simmer ring. On the Min (and therefore on the Micro) with no windshield, the trick appears to be be "brutal" use of the simmer ring. The lack of a windshield increases the flames, the simmer ring reduces them, and there is a sweet spot somewhere in the middle where you get to make your coffee AND keep your eyebrows.

@OffTheBeatenPot

@mikefule330 exactly that. And you’ve nicely illustrated the point that it’s important to try things out at home first.

I like mine. I managed to get into it a remote feed alcohol stove with simmer ring from Batchstovez. One 2 ounce bottle of fuel for the remote feed, and two 1/2oz bottles of alcohol. One 5ml bottle of dish soap An Aluminium windscreen I cut out of a msr windscreen so like the super heavy duty foil. And 1/4 a bandana An atleast by feel. Feels around the same weight as it originally was but has the ability to have 3oz of fuel an soap in it an the bandanna. Probably still has just enough room for a mini bic lighter

Great review, love your videos. Compared to the mini I'm not sure why they've made the micro. If they made one smaller than the micro it would just be good for boiling an egg it would be that small !. Why did they bother making one so small (the micro) unless it's for the tiny amount of people where the difference between the mini and the micro is that huge they would go for the micro ?? 🙂

I think it’s just to ‘compete’ with jetboil tho stoves. Same capacity but with a silent burner. For those not in a hurry. But as you know I’m not one for ripping open packets to reheat so I wanted to test it. Personally I like it. Though I feel a more robust pit grip with the mini might have been the way. I’ll be using mine a lot more. Mostly because I need to eat less!

Thanks for your video. Honestly I don't like the micro at all. It is basically a cup with a lid. I never liked those small cooking pots. For me, it is just too small. You could compare it with any of these titanium cups. I am a bit disapointed, that trangia did not build a nice kit that includes a propper windscreen. Here in Germany we have a few and I even built my own once. Just a foldable windscreen that doubles as a stand. I mean they know how to built good stuff. I love my 27 doussal set, but the micro looks like a toy they needed to get on the market to compete in the ultralight segment. And I have another question. Do you think of a frying pan, matching the diameter of the micro? I can not imagine to fit more that half an egg inside. But I honestly never use the pan on my 27 either so I am not the right person to just. I am just curious.

@OffTheBeatenPot

All great points. I love this set. But I do wish, as you say, there was innovation in the pot stand. The triangle is a reasonable stand. But I also like it to fit inside the pot. Although a pan for this would be tiny. I think it would be welcome for frying a few things up.

Mmmm

No doubt the Vargo windshield will fit inside the pot on top of the burner.
