Last week I was to my local Army/Navy store to check if they had any end-of-summer sales going in in the camping area. No such luck but I did find an Outback Australia Anodised Aluminum Tea Kettle for .99. Now I've wanted a kettle for awhile because most of the food I use while camping is dehydrated stuff or things like my favorite breakfast, oatmeal. But I could never bring myself to pay the prices for a titanium one. I do have a couple of pieces of titanium gear, a spork and a Esbit stove but other than that I leave that gear to the "Gramweinies". The kettle holds a little more than three cups of water and weighs 146 grams or 5.1 ounces or .32 Pounds. I have a configuration I want to try that nests together pretty good although it does weigh a bit. It includes the kettle, the Trangia Mini stand along with the small burner (holding 2 fluid ounces of denatured alcohol - SLX) and a collapsible bowl. This gear together weighs: 424 grams or 5.1 ounces or .934 pounds. Again, not "Gramweinie" stuff. Todays two-part test is done using the Westwind pot stand and the Trangia Mini potstand.
