Great take. Because I considered refuelling my gas canisters myself, I started diligently weighing them new, and then weighing them each time I used them. I was shocked to realise how few grammes of fuel I used during a camp. If you are going out for 3-4 days, boiling a bit of water and heating some noodles, your gas cannisters are going to last you ALL YEAR. A BRS 3000T and the smallest cannister you can find will easily see your right for multiple camps. Whilst I appreciate that some people might get units that are DOA (as did I when I bought my first Firemaple and one arm was bent) if you get sent a good unit it will stay good. Just remember its a tiny, fragile, light-weight camping stove, so treat it like its a little friend. Be gentle when you are assembling it, its mechanical integrity comes into play ONCE its fully assembled. DONT treat it like its a hob. If you take 2 litres of water in pan and slam it down on this thing, you will bend both IT, and probably deform the gas cannister underneath it. Do what THIS guy does... respect it, know its limitations and use a windbreak if required. The best compliment I can give the BRS 3000T is this: If I ever found the right sized capsule for it, I would wear it around my neck
My last cook kit change was 3 years ago and I don't expect to make another one any time soon. I use a Toaks 750ml pot (same footprint as the 600 only taller). Inside I nest a Toaks 450 cup in a diy cozy. In that I have my alcohol stove, mini bic, 1oz fuel bottle, and a bandana. I love that setup. I keep my bigger fuel bottle in my pack's side pocket. I squeeze 1oz of fuel into my little bottle after cooking and I'm ready to go for next time. If temps are freezing or lower, I keep that little bottle on me at night so the fuel performs better in the morning.
I have been backpacking for over forty years and that is the exact same set up I use. I carry two of those little stoves because I have heard some bad stories about them and they weigh nothing. I have never had any issues. I own at least six other stoves but for the weight you can’t beat it and the pot is great too. The spoon is a no brainer. I hike mostly in the Whites. Take care
The beauty of this video is that he doesn't give a hoot what you like or dislike. There are dozens of stoves out there, alcohol, Sterno, liquid fuel and cartridge like this one. Some people swear by MSR stoves or like me I swear at it. I have the MSR, GXK, Whisperlite, Jetboil Flash, Soto Amicus and Jetboil Minimo. and the original MSR PocketRocket. I switched from liquid fuel to cartridge as I got fed up with flareups. I also had the first generation Optimus SVEA which was a PIA to light.
Amen Chris! I've had all sorts of stoves including jetboils and other expensive options. I have gone back to a very similar set-up to you; Robens Fire Midge, a Kelly Kettle single skin pot/mug, titanium spoon and a fits in the pot gas can. Tiny, light and fuss-free👊🏼
My cook kit is pretty much same as yours- just a good no nonsense, no frills super light and compact setup. With mine, a tiny REI microfiber towel gets wrapped around the canister before nesting it in the Toaks. This is the same towel I'd use to dry the cook kit out and/or wipe a wet tent inside. Then the BRS stove and a mini bic lighter get wrapped up in the remainder of the mini towel, covered with the lid and put in the stuff sack. Doesn't rattle around, your whole kit including stove & spark is together in one container and the fragile BRS arms are protected from bending.
Most diplomatic review of all time 😆 not gonna recommend it, not gonna not recommend it. I love your channel!! I agree, find what works and use it 'til it doesn't. Great video. Thanks!
Thanks Norma. I have a really difficult time straight up recommending things to people. Everyone always so picky and prefers this or that or blah blah blah. Like my Zpacks Solplex, I love that tent and how it works but I feel like the average person would think it was tent made for ants haha
I have the Lixada version of that BRS stove. It cost me 11.99 on Amazon in 2017, its identical to the BRS. Mine has been faultless since 2017 and I have no reason to believe it won't be for a long time to come. A great buy.
Subbed right away because of your slogan. I am Chris. I go outdoors! 😬. But also appreciate your good gear choice and approach to not fixing what isn’t broken.
Those Bic lighters are amazing. I found three lighters buried in a box of bits and pieces recently that would be about twenty-years-old at least, from when I was a smoker. Each still had fuel and they all still worked. Why muck around with steels and flints, or matches, etc. when the reliability of these amazing little lighters is so good. As a safety precaution, I would still keep a tiny Ferro rod, as nothing is certain or guaranteed.
They really are solid. I actually typically keep an extra in a ziplock in my first aid kit, at least on long distance hikes. Good to have a back up for sure!
Because its good practice to get accustomed to techniques you can replicate and improvise, in the field. Other reasons are that a wet ferro rod works in high wind, just like it does dry, in dead calm. For me, the matches and lighter are the backup, in case Im having extra trouble with something taking a spark.
I concur that hikers should just stick with what works best for them. We have the 300 ml version of the cook pot used for just boiling water. We soak all our meals in quart sized freezer bags, which help reduce the pack weight. Original food packages are heavy, especial the Skartist brand. Toaks 600 ml would be ideal for tea + soaking meals, but the MSR pocket rocket boils water very quick. We don't need a lot of hot water, except the Idahoan takes the most water. I also hate washing up on the trail, so we only use the Toaks cookpot to boil water. Happy trails! 🌺
Ya those tuna packets are some thick foil. Glad the small cook pot is working for ya. The especially quick clean up of cooking in individual bags is really hard to beat
I have a kit for years, when MSR came out with the pocket rocket. That stove and their titanium kettle, a fuel canister and an MSR titanium tool spoon. Works fine, never let me down.
I'm with you.....I wouldn't give up my 2.9 ounce cook kit for anything. It just works! I've been using the 700ml Heineken keg can pot for over a decade. At 0.7 ounces it simply can't be beat. Everyone said it would get crushed in my pack and wouldn't last. Nope.
@@tatecorbridge914 I used paint thinner to remove all the paint and everything from the inside and outside of the beer can. Then I washed it several times and put it in the oven to make sure everything was "baked" off of it. And then I repeated the process. I neglected to mention that I only use it for boiling water, not actual cooking.
Hi. I’ve been using a Coleman’s dual fuel sportster stove since 1996,and I thought that this year,I would jump on the ‘light’ stove bandwagon. Great review of your cook set. I will go along the same route as you!
I have been backpacking for decades. About ten years ago I got really into it and started upgrading my gear. I own two of these stoves, the weigh nothing under an oz and cost almost nothing, about 17 dollars of less. My old pack in the 90s was in the 40 lbs my new set up about 15 to 20. I am doing more miles and feeling better than I did thirty years ago. I used to own the same stove you have. Very nice but really heavy. Good luck take care
Ive got the same kit except i have a long handle toaks spork and the 700ml toaks cup. Been using it for 3+ years 👍. I usually just boil water in the toaks and let the water sit in the knorr bag and place it inside of an insulated bag until the pasta cooks. Keeps the toaks cup from getting messy.
I have had my Chinese knockoff of the brs and it’s awesome. It even has its own igniter so it’s awesome. Tho I still bring a lighter. It boils water great. My Primus pot and lid are awesome and light. Silicone coated grips. No stick. Not Teflon but for some reason nothing sticks to it. The lid is a super shallow fry pan that I use on occasion for no lid purposes like frying up an egg. Got it on clearance at my local camping store. I’ve fried bacon in the pot. Lol. It cleans up beautifully. I bring it car camping cuz it’s my fav pot. My spoon is the long handled silicone spoon. It scrapes out the pot or mountain house bag really well. I like to bring one mountain house meal then cook all my lunches and dinners in that bag for the rest of the time by rinsing/wiping it out. The shape, material and ziplock make them great meal prep bags. Appreciate your viewpoints. Thanks for sharing your cook system.
Hey Chris, thanks for the review! TOAKS is right next to my home town of Westlake Village! Not everyone knows but TOAKS stands for Thousand Oaks, ( CALIFORNIA). Have basically the same set up but like The Evernew Pot better, as more surface and heats up quicker. Have had two versions of the TOAKS pots and good stuff!! Keep these videos coming: I don’t know 🤷♂️ if anyone has said this before, but I get really excited when I get a notification that you’re posted a new video!! It’s like coming home to a familiar face. Truly!! Your manner makes us feel good, and I’m obviously not the only one!!
I also have the exact same setup as you yet switched back to my old but reliable Jetboil. Wind was number one. I even made a nice windblock/skirt that fits inside the cooking cup for the BRS setup but it just doesn't work to my liking. The BRS with the wind skirt wastes fuel. Wasting fuel means having to carry more. I know my Jetboil setup weighs 8 oz more than my BRS setup but the time, the difficulty with wind, the stability, and the efficiency with fuel has put me back to my Jetboil. I did 300 miles on the AZT, many miles and overnights in the Colorado mtn's, and multiday motorcycle rides.
I have the same exact setup with the Toaks 750. I pour the hot water in Knorr Pasta bag and set it back in pot. Roll bag down, wait a few.....Works great. No cleanup
You ever mess up on the water amount? I feel like everyone I see pour water in ends up eating like a knorrs pasta soup haha. I have considered messing around with the pour in in my kitchen to find the perfect amount of water to add
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors Yea...Been a long time since I actually read the directions but I think it says something like a cup and a half of water. But thats simmering on a stovetop. I always eyeball somewhere between half and 3/4 cup. You can always add a bit more later. Works great. Tuna and the new Chick packets add some additional moisture. Parmesan Knorr, Sesame Ginger Chicken, and some crushed goldfish or doritos has been my goto lately. I had that three nights in a row last week on the AT. Oh, if you havent tried Cookie Butter. Get Some.🤙🤙🤙
I was looking at the Toaks 750; does it fit both a 4oz fuel can AND some sort of stove in it? Would it fit any stove larger than that BRS3000 or whatever is so popular?
@@ccoleman2002 Small canister and the Brs stove fit no problem. Room to spare. I have an old snowpeak gigapower that we use for family trips occasionally. I think it would fit, without the plastic case that comes with it. No need for that anyway. I'll check tomorrow and let you know if the Snow peak giga fits. Hope that helps.
I have about the same set up, Non polished spoon, and the 800ml Pot with the same handles and lines etched in. Also no longer making lol. Love the Ch. Keep Putting Stuff Together and Happy Hiking
Its unfortunate they dont make these style pots anymore. They seem to work really well. I have seen a few with the fold out arms but they are no longer covered in that rubber
I've seen those things, look pretty cool. I very rarely go hot coffee in the morning. Usually just shake up some instant with cold water and call it a day... or morning
Great video Chris, we are going to the Swiss alps next summer on a backpacking trip we will be taking literally the same cook set as yours, thanks for sharing 👍
i got the Etek city super cheap one from amazon used it a few times no issues yet, though mine only has to last as long as the fuel can as it is part of an emergency bug out bag i hope to never need. i still break it out and use it to maintain the skill of cooking that way a few times a month. primary stove is a multi-fuel stove though it wont boil water fast like these little rocket butane stoves.
Quick suggestion.i have the same pot. I spray painted the bottom with black high temp barbeque paint. It cuts your boil time significantly. Do the bottom and sides. Enjoy. JB
On the basis of this entertaining video I decided to buy a Toaks (rather than MSR) pot and/or cup (but who are they I wanted to know ?)... they research and make all their own gear, so that seemed okay until I researched a little further. A helluva lot more money for a Toaks than a Lixada, and delivery end of August early September direct from the Chinese factory whereas the Lixada will arrive next week through Amazon France 12 euros cheaper and no import tax! And they are made to the same specifications in the same factory. Go figure as the Americans might say. thanks for the good video.
I personally use toaks 750ml pot and rocket pocket 2. I like to keep things really light, but at the same time I don't worry about it too much. If some item is significantly better/useful with some more weight, within reason, I'm going to get that. In there I have fuel canister, collapsing mug, lighter and spark wheel. There's still some space so I might throw stuff other stuff in there too, like for example something like tea or coffee.
Many people like those but, I've been using my jetboil for a long time now, and I'll keep using it, personal preference comes into play in many avenues. Cheers
I know a few people that go the jetboil route and love them. One of which will time how quick his water boils to let me know 😂I am firm believer in rock whatever works best for you!
Really great points! Go with what works. I like your no nonsense mentality. My luck had had me go through a few iterations of most of my gear but I’ve narrowed things down now. Didn’t know you had a channel but I can tell ya I’m looking forward to watching your videos brother! Thanks for sharing your opinions. Be well Craig
Thanks Craig! Ive gone through iterations on all my gear as well. I owned a snow peak pot before this. Didnt really care for it as I expereinced it burning food a lot. But then got this pot and its just been great since. I've tried probably 10 different shelter options and keep coming back to the Zpacks Solplex. When you find something that works for you its hard to justify changing it!
ChrisGoesOutdoors I hear that. Still have a snowpeak but have same issues. And a Vargo Bot. I like it a lot but want something a bit smaller. The Toaks 550 is looking good. I’ve yet to get a ground option as I’m a hammocker but want a ground option that’s UL to go with my setup that I dare say is almost UL. As soon as my Curve comes in and I can retire my 4lb fjallraven. Lol Be well brother Craig
Ultralight is awesome for sure, but another thing that is awesome that almost nobody is talking about is weighted vests..! A couple of weeks ago i bought a 20kg vest, and have been using it regularly since i got it. Last time i had gotten pretty used to this weight, so i added 5 extra kg, and hiked up a local mountain. This should be close to 40% of my body weight, which allows me to get a really nice workout from a relatively short hike - and this makes it a LOT easier to go out and get a decent workout several times per week. A year from now, even a 20kg backpack should feel more or less "comfortable" 😎
Precisely! Packs aren’t too heavy, we’re just too weak. I do it with other hobbies like photography/videography gear, drawing/painting stuff and telescopes. I live in a nice valley so I can just hike from home with anything but I have driven to places and hiked from the safest place to mountaintops, sightseeing spots etc. Everything is heavy but it’s essentially weight/resistance training
@@Fleischnaka horrible is beyond an overstatement imho. It could be seen as shaming, I do see your point. But honestly, it’s simply true. The majority of western population is sedentary, and there’s not way around it. With the modern world and all its commodities, it was bound to happen since we are preconditioned to save energy, and most people can’t stay away from things they know aren’t healthy - and lack of exercise is no different. There’s an exercise revolution going on with the gym culture, but even that is vanity driven, and often leads to substance abuse. The human body is incredible and capable of so so much. Far more than people in our society know. It is to me very sad, that being which are capable of walking/run across a country, or bicycling around the whole world (literally), and yet we complain if we have walk mile to a bus stop.
@@Fleischnaka He wasn’t shaming anyone and if the hurts your feelings maybe you should take a look at why that offends you and do something about it instead of playing the victim and projecting your negativity on someone else, js
I don't understand folks' reluctance to use the Metric System.... we're already using it in laboratories for sure and personally when talking electricity, and other stuff without even realizing it. It's so damned easy to learn !
That's very refreshing to hear someone sticking with their cook kit, a lot of videos have become as bad as marketing that we need the latest and lightest new stove or pot out there. I'm personally still using the same cook system I've had for 4 years now, I do have a spare stove from previous trips but like yourself, what I have just works and works well so there's no point in buying a replacement.
Mine started to glow red and bend/melt with a pot of water in a Stanley pot. Wasnt even on high. Did buy on Amazon but it seems like the real thing... Was next to water and it may have been windy blowing the flame into the arm. At least thats what I think happened.
This kit is very popular on amazon, and i will get it myself soon to test it out. I want to test the BRS burner during winter and see how it holds up. I plan on using "Winter Gas" and just keep it warm before use.
As long as the gas stays warm should be good. I actually picked up a jetboil on the very cheap I may try to use this winter and just keep the gas in my jacket near the end of the day. I think it will work out fine
Nice kit man simple mine just a little heavier than yours but almost the same lol I use the evernew 600 the short wide version. mini Bic. Soto windmaster same spoon as u and a light load towl all 6.7oz I wrap the stove in the towel so it mulit use keeps stove from rattling round and clean the pot
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors ya it does heck anything in the pack rattling or squeaking will drive ya crazy lol and u keep teasing everyone bout a big trip we all know u got something planned can't wait till we find out what n where . I'm thinking sobo at or the CT
Just waiting to make sure all my ducks are in a row. Don't want to say anything beforehand. Im going hiking one way or the other. Just waiting on one thing for the final word on where
Ya it really is, the handles on this one are great. I really dont like the metal small fold in handles they have on the newer ones. They are pretty floppy
Good review Chris I'm glad I found your channel. Not sure you'd remember me I thu-hiked the A.T in 2017. We met and chatted at the yellow deli hiker hostel (Vermont) while we both took a zero day. Glad your still getting out and hiking new England. : question. Are you planning another long hike in the future?..... Rock on bro
Brad were you the guy I talked to in the room who was kind of nursing some sort of injury? I remember most of the people who were staying while I was there, at least in the room to the left when you walk in haha. Always planning for another long hike. See where this summer takes me!
haha right on that's me bottom bunk in the corner, and yup gotta love summer and hiking season . I hiked the CDT last year and I'm hiking the JMT in Aug, ( less of a commitment) this year. Was wondering if you hiked out West and if so had any good advice.
No way man! haha small world. I often tell people how much I can recall about my time on the trail. Like its mind blowing. Congrats on the CDT. Havent been out west but definitely interested in getting out there. Enjoy the JMT too. Looks AMAZING
Great video Chris! You and Justin Outdoors came out with nearly the exact same video on the same day! Lol. His is the 750ml though. As a Canadian I need a better winter set up! What do you use?!
I have an actual winter gear video where I talk about it but its essentially just a larger aluminium no name pot I picked up from Amazon. has a smaller aluminium pot/lid and I use the MSR whisperlite white gas stove. Have never had an issue with that setup yet but have significantly less usage on it
@@fonimer well if you're experienced enough, your gear will not get too dirty or worn for a while. I've used the same tent for 2 years and it looks pretty new, because i clean it and set it up in good locations with a footprint.
Touchy subject for me. I've incorporated old school cooking with modern day cooking. I find my aluminum pot from my '70's boyscout mess kit to be better than anything new. Mini stoves are also an issue. Pocket rocket, pocket rocket 2 (which I now use), jet boil mini mo, that burnt the black plastic once. At the end of the day, you're out in the woods and you're happy to be able to boil water and heat your food before hitting the sack, literally. As a kid I used to get a can of sardines with tomato and put that on the fire. Delicious. Cooking kits, for me, are normally over thought.
I have not been able to replace my Snow Peaks 700 or 750 pot... whichever it is. I thought about it several times but perfect size for food and coffee. I did switch my brs stove solely based on a hilarious video for the Soto Windmaster but glad I got it because it is the sweetest stove ever and so quiet. Lemme find the vid..
I had one of the snow peak pots before I snagged a toaks. I think it was a 750ml one. Whenever I cooked in it it seemed to always burn whatever was at the bottom. I think it was just a super thin, albeit lighter, titanium they used. Any issues with burning for you?
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors luckily I haven't had burning issues. I've cooked, cleaned it out and go right to coffee. Mine must have been made on a Tuesday or Wednesday, lol
I used the 3,000 as well my only complaint with it is when you try to connect it to the propane it wants to leak right away and make your hands cold LOL. Maybe mine has defected but it still works
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors I'm glad I'm not the only one I have three of them and all of them do the same thing, LOL. But for $13 it works just as good as my pocket rocket. . And then if one of the kids lose them It doesn't break my heart.
I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time and I can't find the answer. On the one hand, I keep reading/hearing that the cartridge should not be exposed to high temperatures. On the other hand, the burner (especially the one screwed onto the cartridge) heats up to very high temperatures and is in direct contact with the cartridge. The problem especially concerns small burners from China, such as the BSR3000. I always have concerns and fear in the back of my mind. Please explain.
I think it weighs close to 8oz when full but dontn quote me on that. I have used it a lot sometimes for lunch and dinner occasionally breakfast and can usually get 2-3 weeks on trail pretty easy. The can I got on the CT I replaced about 2.5 weeks in but it still had a decent amount of fuel left in it. Just wanted to make sure I didnt run out for the latter part of the trail
New to hiking would like to know about the little stove if you don't use all the fuel in the little can how do you remove the burner so you can pack it back in your bag
You can close off the fuel from coming out of the canister on the actual stove. And the stove just twists on or off the canister. When the stove is not connected the canister is self sealing until you use it again. Always helps to wait a couple minutes after your done cooking before removing the stove tho since the metal gets kind of hot. Hope that helps!
I used the smaller (200g?) on the Colorado Trail for 3 weeks or so cooking 1 to 2 times a day. By cooking, usually boiling water. I still had fuel left when I replaced the can but was walking by an outfitter in the town at the time and picked up a new one that last the rest of the trail. Think I could have made the rest of trail with the first can but didnt really seem worth testing that theory for $5 haha
Only 1 at a time. They were typically lasting me at least 2 weeks. Sometimes closer to 3 or more as I started to not use the cans for lunches at the latter half of the trail. Getting a new can was extremely easy, either an outfitter in a town, walmart, or even many grocery stores or hostels would have them available to purchase. Could also typically find cans with a decent amount of gas left in hiker boxes pretty easy too

Did you ever toss together a wind block on this kit while on trail?
@@jeremyrobbins9064 nah, if theres ever wind I would just move the stove somewhere less windy, or use my backpack / food bag to block as much as they could

Be gentle when you are assembling it, its mechanical integrity comes into play ONCE its fully assembled.
DONT treat it like its a hob. If you take 2 litres of water in pan and slam it down on this thing, you will bend both IT, and probably deform the gas cannister underneath it.
Do what THIS guy does... respect it, know its limitations and use a windbreak if required.
The best compliment I can give the BRS 3000T is this: If I ever found the right sized capsule for it, I would wear it around my neck
Man I know this video is old but this is the system I was looking for without spending a ton of money.
My last cook kit change was 3 years ago and I don't expect to make another one any time soon. I use a Toaks 750ml pot (same footprint as the 600 only taller). Inside I nest a Toaks 450 cup in a diy cozy. In that I have my alcohol stove, mini bic, 1oz fuel bottle, and a bandana. I love that setup. I keep my bigger fuel bottle in my pack's side pocket.

Dude, love the straight forward simple approach. That's real world
Even if the lighter runs out of fuel you can still use it to spark the stove.
I cut down an empty bic and only use it to spark. Insanely reliable and weighs practically nothing
I have seen this in a vlog and it's brilliant!
I was gonna say-- absolutely brilliant!!
I've used a kitchen stove to fire up Jeffrey's.
@@GTFBITK I don’t think Chris is doin utube anymore. Which is a bummer.

Ya those tuna packets are some thick foil. Glad the small cook pot is working for ya. The especially quick clean up of cooking in individual bags is really hard to beat
Are you talking about the original pocket rocket?
@@jshepard152 MSR Pocket Rocket 2 🌺
I have a kit for years, when MSR came out with the pocket rocket. That stove and their titanium kettle, a fuel canister and an MSR titanium tool spoon. Works fine, never let me down.
That first sentence makes my brain itch.
I like a man who finds a system that works for him and just sticks with it.
I'm with you.....I wouldn't give up my 2.9 ounce cook kit for anything. It just works! I've been using the 700ml Heineken keg can pot for over a decade. At 0.7 ounces it simply can't be beat. Everyone said it would get crushed in my pack and wouldn't last. Nope.
I assume you mean you’re using the bottom of a beer can? How did you deal with the plastic lining in the can?
@@tatecorbridge914 I used paint thinner to remove all the paint and everything from the inside and outside of the beer can. Then I washed it several times and put it in the oven to make sure everything was "baked" off of it. And then I repeated the process. I neglected to mention that I only use it for boiling water, not actual cooking.
Hi. I’ve been using a Coleman’s dual fuel sportster stove since 1996,and I thought that this year,I would jump on the ‘light’ stove bandwagon. Great review of your cook set.
I will go along the same route as you!
I have been backpacking for decades. About ten years ago I got really into it and started upgrading my gear. I own two of these stoves, the weigh nothing under an oz and cost almost nothing, about 17 dollars of less. My old pack in the 90s was in the 40 lbs my new set up about 15 to 20. I am doing more miles and feeling better than I did thirty years ago. I used to own the same stove you have. Very nice but really heavy. Good luck take care
Cool feature I just got from you about the lid having the little slot to keep the triangle nubblet up! Great
Ive got the same kit except i have a long handle toaks spork and the 700ml toaks cup. Been using it for 3+ years 👍. I usually just boil water in the toaks and let the water sit in the knorr bag and place it inside of an insulated bag until the pasta cooks. Keeps the toaks cup from getting messy.
I have this exact same cook kit, down to the mini Bic. This was my first kit, my go to when I go solo. Awesome!
Same here - been using it for over a year and converting my Boy Scouts to this and away from the heavier BSR and JetBoil options.
This is the first of your videos I've seen and subscribed under a minute like the no nonsense approach
I have had my Chinese knockoff of the brs and it’s awesome. It even has its own igniter so it’s awesome. Tho I still bring a lighter. It boils water great. My Primus pot and lid are awesome and light. Silicone coated grips. No stick. Not Teflon but for some reason nothing sticks to it. The lid is a super shallow fry pan that I use on occasion for no lid purposes like frying up an egg. Got it on clearance at my local camping store. I’ve fried bacon in the pot. Lol. It cleans up beautifully. I bring it car camping cuz it’s my fav pot. My spoon is the long handled silicone spoon. It scrapes out the pot or mountain house bag really well. I like to bring one mountain house meal then cook all my lunches and dinners in that bag for the rest of the time by rinsing/wiping it out. The shape, material and ziplock make them great meal prep bags. Appreciate your viewpoints. Thanks for sharing your cook system.
Hey Chris, thanks for the review! TOAKS is right next to my home town of Westlake Village! Not everyone knows but TOAKS stands for Thousand Oaks, ( CALIFORNIA). Have basically the same set up but like The Evernew Pot better, as more surface and heats up quicker. Have had two versions of the TOAKS pots and good stuff!! Keep these videos coming: I don’t know 🤷♂️ if anyone has said this before, but I get really excited when I get a notification that you’re posted a new video!! It’s like coming home to a familiar face. Truly!! Your manner makes us feel good, and I’m obviously not the only one!!
Had no idea about Toaks. Good to hear the backstory! Appreciate the continued support and the kind words. Always feels good to read stuff like this
Never knew, thousand oaks. I'm from California hahah
I also have the exact same setup as you yet switched back to my old but reliable Jetboil. Wind was number one. I even made a nice windblock/skirt that fits inside the cooking cup for the BRS setup but it just doesn't work to my liking. The BRS with the wind skirt wastes fuel. Wasting fuel means having to carry more. I know my Jetboil setup weighs 8 oz more than my BRS setup but the time, the difficulty with wind, the stability, and the efficiency with fuel has put me back to my Jetboil. I did 300 miles on the AZT, many miles and overnights in the Colorado mtn's, and multiday motorcycle rides.
I have the same exact setup with the Toaks 750. I pour the hot water in Knorr Pasta bag and set it back in pot. Roll bag down, wait a few.....Works great. No cleanup
You ever mess up on the water amount? I feel like everyone I see pour water in ends up eating like a knorrs pasta soup haha. I have considered messing around with the pour in in my kitchen to find the perfect amount of water to add
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors Yea...Been a long time since I actually read the directions but I think it says something like a cup and a half of water. But thats simmering on a stovetop. I always eyeball somewhere between half and 3/4 cup. You can always add a bit more later. Works great. Tuna and the new Chick packets add some additional moisture. Parmesan Knorr, Sesame Ginger Chicken, and some crushed goldfish or doritos has been my goto lately. I had that three nights in a row last week on the AT. Oh, if you havent tried Cookie Butter. Get Some.🤙🤙🤙
I was looking at the Toaks 750; does it fit both a 4oz fuel can AND some sort of stove in it? Would it fit any stove larger than that BRS3000 or whatever is so popular?
@@ccoleman2002 Small canister and the Brs stove fit no problem. Room to spare. I have an old snowpeak gigapower that we use for family trips occasionally. I think it would fit, without the plastic case that comes with it. No need for that anyway. I'll check tomorrow and let you know if the Snow peak giga fits. Hope that helps.
Checked the snowpeak. Fits no problem. Hit me up on instagram and I'll send you a few pics if you like.🤙
I've been using the exact same setup for several years now. Can't beat it.
Giving this setup to my neice for her 18th. I totally agree: if it works, then call it GOOD. 👍👍
I took the handles off. They get in the way of my insulated sleeve. I use a pot lifter, but I carry a 450 plus 1100. Replaced lid, too.
I have about the same set up, Non polished spoon, and the 800ml Pot with the same handles and lines etched in. Also no longer making lol. Love the Ch. Keep Putting Stuff Together and Happy Hiking
Its unfortunate they dont make these style pots anymore. They seem to work really well. I have seen a few with the fold out arms but they are no longer covered in that rubber
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors I don't know if you drink hot drinks on trail but the " Hot Lips " Silicon Lip Protector works wonders.. 2 grams or something
I've seen those things, look pretty cool. I very rarely go hot coffee in the morning. Usually just shake up some instant with cold water and call it a day... or morning
This is my first video of yours that I’ve seen and I loved it. I hit Subscribe after under a minute.
Great video Chris, we are going to the Swiss alps next summer on a backpacking trip we will be taking literally the same cook set as yours, thanks for sharing 👍
i got the Etek city super cheap one from amazon used it a few times no issues yet, though mine only has to last as long as the fuel can as it is part of an emergency bug out bag i hope to never need. i still break it out and use it to maintain the skill of cooking that way a few times a month. primary stove is a multi-fuel stove though it wont boil water fast like these little rocket butane stoves.
Quick suggestion.i have the same pot. I spray painted the bottom with black high temp barbeque paint. It cuts your boil time significantly. Do the bottom and sides. Enjoy. JB
I use the EXACT same setup. Love it. Super light and serves its purpose.
I have that exact same setup, except I use a Toaks spork (which is amazing!!). I've had the stove for maybe 6-7 years still works great
That's absolutely great that you found the cook system that works for you. 👍
On the basis of this entertaining video I decided to buy a Toaks (rather than MSR) pot and/or cup (but who are they I wanted to know ?)... they research and make all their own gear, so that seemed okay until I researched a little further. A helluva lot more money for a Toaks than a Lixada, and delivery end of August early September direct from the Chinese factory whereas the Lixada will arrive next week through Amazon France 12 euros cheaper and no import tax! And they are made to the same specifications in the same factory. Go figure as the Americans might say. thanks for the good video.
I personally use toaks 750ml pot and rocket pocket 2. I like to keep things really light, but at the same time I don't worry about it too much. If some item is significantly better/useful with some more weight, within reason, I'm going to get that. In there I have fuel canister, collapsing mug, lighter and spark wheel. There's still some space so I might throw stuff other stuff in there too, like for example something like tea or coffee.
Can you fit a 8oz cannister or only the 4oz?
That was way better info than like the last 3 reviews I watched
Many people like those but, I've been using my jetboil for a long time now, and I'll keep using it, personal preference comes into play in many avenues. Cheers
I know a few people that go the jetboil route and love them. One of which will time how quick his water boils to let me know 😂I am firm believer in rock whatever works best for you!
I have the same kit all but the pot mine is the 550, wish they still made the one like you have love the handle’s on yours. Thanks for the videos
ya its unfortunate they dont make them with these handles anymore. I dont care too much for those smaller floppy handles
Really great points! Go with what works.
I like your no nonsense mentality. My luck had had me go through a few iterations of most of my gear but I’ve narrowed things down now.
Didn’t know you had a channel but I can tell ya I’m looking forward to watching your videos brother!
Thanks for sharing your opinions.
Be well
Craig
Thanks Craig! Ive gone through iterations on all my gear as well. I owned a snow peak pot before this. Didnt really care for it as I expereinced it burning food a lot. But then got this pot and its just been great since. I've tried probably 10 different shelter options and keep coming back to the Zpacks Solplex. When you find something that works for you its hard to justify changing it!
ChrisGoesOutdoors I hear that. Still have a snowpeak but have same issues. And a Vargo Bot. I like it a lot but want something a bit smaller. The Toaks 550 is looking good.
I’ve yet to get a ground option as I’m a hammocker but want a ground option that’s UL to go with my setup that I dare say is almost UL. As soon as my Curve comes in and I can retire my 4lb fjallraven. Lol
Be well brother
Craig
Nice to see a happy camper.
Thank's for a great review! The Toaks 750 ml up on my wishlist. Keep up the good work and safe hiking!
I’ve got pretty much the exact same set up and love it - no complaints what so ever.
Ditto.
Sometimes my alcohol stove seems outdated ... but I have attachment issues.
Ultralight is awesome for sure, but another thing that is awesome that almost nobody is talking about is weighted vests..! A couple of weeks ago i bought a 20kg vest, and have been using it regularly since i got it. Last time i had gotten pretty used to this weight, so i added 5 extra kg, and hiked up a local mountain. This should be close to 40% of my body weight, which allows me to get a really nice workout from a relatively short hike - and this makes it a LOT easier to go out and get a decent workout several times per week. A year from now, even a 20kg backpack should feel more or less "comfortable" 😎
Precisely! Packs aren’t too heavy, we’re just too weak. I do it with other hobbies like photography/videography gear, drawing/painting stuff and telescopes. I live in a nice valley so I can just hike from home with anything but I have driven to places and hiked from the safest place to mountaintops, sightseeing spots etc. Everything is heavy but it’s essentially weight/resistance training
@@pedro_claro we are too weak, what a horrible way to shame people.
@@Fleischnaka horrible is beyond an overstatement imho. It could be seen as shaming, I do see your point. But honestly, it’s simply true. The majority of western population is sedentary, and there’s not way around it. With the modern world and all its commodities, it was bound to happen since we are preconditioned to save energy, and most people can’t stay away from things they know aren’t healthy - and lack of exercise is no different. There’s an exercise revolution going on with the gym culture, but even that is vanity driven, and often leads to substance abuse.
The human body is incredible and capable of so so much. Far more than people in our society know. It is to me very sad, that being which are capable of walking/run across a country, or bicycling around the whole world (literally), and yet we complain if we have walk mile to a bus stop.
@@Fleischnaka He wasn’t shaming anyone and if the hurts your feelings maybe you should take a look at why that offends you and do something about it instead of playing the victim and projecting your negativity on someone else, js
Aside from a sea to summit collapsing kettle (that the coffee strainer nests in) we've got the same setup!
I’ve used the BRS to cook for 3 people. Took a couple minutes to boil but cooking 2 meals a day for a week used less than 110 grams of fuel.
it is good to see that u actually use those items ... others have their gear brand new on their vids
Are you kidding? That gear looks like it just came out of the box.
My kit is identical except I have a 550 toaks pot and I use the gossamer gear DCF and insulated cozy sack that fits the stove.
Nice video - I use almost the same setup - I got the Soto Windmarster - it is a little bit heavier - but much better in the wind 😊
I hear great things about the Soto. If the BRS ever dies maybe I will give it a shot. Until then..... Long live the BRS!
Just earned a subscriber. Love that you include grams, milimeters etc. Thanks!
I don't understand folks' reluctance to use the Metric System.... we're already using it in laboratories for sure and personally when talking electricity, and other stuff without even realizing it. It's so damned easy to learn !
That's very refreshing to hear someone sticking with their cook kit, a lot of videos have become as bad as marketing that we need the latest and lightest new stove or pot out there.
I'm personally still using the same cook system I've had for 4 years now, I do have a spare stove from previous trips but like yourself, what I have just works and works well so there's no point in buying a replacement.
Mine started to glow red and bend/melt with a pot of water in a Stanley pot. Wasnt even on high. Did buy on Amazon but it seems like the real thing... Was next to water and it may have been windy blowing the flame into the arm. At least thats what I think happened.
This kit is very popular on amazon, and i will get it myself soon to test it out.
I want to test the BRS burner during winter and see how it holds up.
I plan on using "Winter Gas" and just keep it warm before use.
As long as the gas stays warm should be good. I actually picked up a jetboil on the very cheap I may try to use this winter and just keep the gas in my jacket near the end of the day. I think it will work out fine
Nice kit man simple mine just a little heavier than yours but almost the same lol I use the evernew 600 the short wide version. mini Bic. Soto windmaster same spoon as u and a light load towl all 6.7oz I wrap the stove in the towel so it mulit use keeps stove from rattling round and clean the pot
Nice little kit! Ya anything rattling in the pot becomes REALLY annoying REALLY quick haha. I usually keep that sack out of the pot just in case
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors ya it does heck anything in the pack rattling or squeaking will drive ya crazy lol and u keep teasing everyone bout a big trip we all know u got something planned can't wait till we find out what n where . I'm thinking sobo at or the CT
Just waiting to make sure all my ducks are in a row. Don't want to say anything beforehand. Im going hiking one way or the other. Just waiting on one thing for the final word on where
HA! That’s my exact same kit, even the same color lighter! Shame Toaks doesn’t make that pot anymore. I love the coated handle.
Ya it really is, the handles on this one are great. I really dont like the metal small fold in handles they have on the newer ones. They are pretty floppy
Good review Chris I'm glad I found your channel. Not sure you'd remember me I thu-hiked the A.T in 2017. We met and chatted at the yellow deli hiker hostel (Vermont) while we both took a zero day. Glad your still getting out and hiking new England. : question. Are you planning another long hike in the future?..... Rock on bro
Brad were you the guy I talked to in the room who was kind of nursing some sort of injury? I remember most of the people who were staying while I was there, at least in the room to the left when you walk in haha. Always planning for another long hike. See where this summer takes me!
haha right on that's me bottom bunk in the corner, and yup gotta love summer and hiking season . I hiked the CDT last year and I'm hiking the JMT in Aug, ( less of a commitment) this year. Was wondering if you hiked out West and if so had any good advice.
No way man! haha small world. I often tell people how much I can recall about my time on the trail. Like its mind blowing. Congrats on the CDT. Havent been out west but definitely interested in getting out there. Enjoy the JMT too. Looks AMAZING
Thank you for the heads up.
Great video Chris! You and Justin Outdoors came out with nearly the exact same video on the same day! Lol. His is the 750ml though.
As a Canadian I need a better winter set up! What do you use?!
I have an actual winter gear video where I talk about it but its essentially just a larger aluminium no name pot I picked up from Amazon. has a smaller aluminium pot/lid and I use the MSR whisperlite white gas stove. Have never had an issue with that setup yet but have significantly less usage on it
The information is amazingly significant.
Thanks James!
Thanks for including grams in your weight discussion.
love your set up, i'm just wondering if i need to buy like an extra collapsible mug like for coffee or whatever.
*describes self as “exceptionally lazy”* also: *hikes 2180 miles across the country* 😂😂😂
It’s all relative really 😂
@@fonimer well if you're experienced enough, your gear will not get too dirty or worn for a while. I've used the same tent for 2 years and it looks pretty new, because i clean it and set it up in good locations with a footprint.
@@fonimer Booo! don't be so negative brother.
@@fonimer Boo! You stink!
@@fonimer he literally has videos of him doing it. Why do you have to be so cynical?
Touchy subject for me. I've incorporated old school cooking with modern day cooking. I find my aluminum pot from my '70's boyscout mess kit to be better than anything new. Mini stoves are also an issue. Pocket rocket, pocket rocket 2 (which I now use), jet boil mini mo, that burnt the black plastic once. At the end of the day, you're out in the woods and you're happy to be able to boil water and heat your food before hitting the sack, literally. As a kid I used to get a can of sardines with tomato and put that on the fire. Delicious. Cooking kits, for me, are normally over thought.
My pot is different, but I pretty much have exactly the same. The only extra thing I take is a fine sieve for making tea and coffee in.
Hey Chris. I had to watch this without sound as the Mrs. is sleeping. Do you use this same setup in the deep winter temps? Take care man. NQU
I like your reasoning, great logic ! Cheers
Thanks Crag!
Just discovered you. Love the positive vibe. Subscribed
I have not been able to replace my Snow Peaks 700 or 750 pot... whichever it is. I thought about it several times but perfect size for food and coffee. I did switch my brs stove solely based on a hilarious video for the Soto Windmaster but glad I got it because it is the sweetest stove ever and so quiet. Lemme find the vid..
ruclips.net/video/zD_Zs_KdymM/видео.html
I had one of the snow peak pots before I snagged a toaks. I think it was a 750ml one. Whenever I cooked in it it seemed to always burn whatever was at the bottom. I think it was just a super thin, albeit lighter, titanium they used. Any issues with burning for you?
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors luckily I haven't had burning issues. I've cooked, cleaned it out and go right to coffee. Mine must have been made on a Tuesday or Wednesday, lol
mine was definitely made on a Friday, 2 minutes before end of shift
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors knew it. 😂😂
Nice kit Chris good choice on the parts of your kit.
If it's not broken it don't need fixing great video many thanks
5:20 Toaks pot. It looks like they make a 550ml and 650ml size now.
I used the 3,000 as well my only complaint with it is when you try to connect it to the propane it wants to leak right away and make your hands cold LOL. Maybe mine has defected but it still works
Just a little spurt to let you know its there LOL. Mine does the same
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors I'm glad I'm not the only one I have three of them and all of them do the same thing, LOL. But for $13 it works just as good as my pocket rocket. . And then if one of the kids lose them It doesn't break my heart.
Great video and you are expanding my vocabulary. Nublet
nub·let plural -s
noun
1: an object not small enough to be a nub, not large enough to be a nugget
Thank you for including metric!
You probably watched the prepper survivalist videos where it's more about having the latest gear and three ways to light a fire.
I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time and I can't find the answer. On the one hand, I keep reading/hearing that the cartridge should not be exposed to high temperatures. On the other hand, the burner (especially the one screwed onto the cartridge) heats up to very high temperatures and is in direct contact with the cartridge. The problem especially concerns small burners from China, such as the BSR3000. I always have concerns and fear in the back of my mind. Please explain.
Don't forget to add the gas canister weight, as it's not consumable. 3.3oz Can + 5.70oz = 9.0oz ... Light!
Great video. How many ounces does the propane tank in your video have ? And how many times can you use it before you need another tank ? Thanks.
I think it weighs close to 8oz when full but dontn quote me on that. I have used it a lot sometimes for lunch and dinner occasionally breakfast and can usually get 2-3 weeks on trail pretty easy. The can I got on the CT I replaced about 2.5 weeks in but it still had a decent amount of fuel left in it. Just wanted to make sure I didnt run out for the latter part of the trail
No bs... i like it
Love my BRS!
i have basically the same set up except mine is the 650
Thank you!
New to hiking would like to know about the little stove if you don't use all the fuel in the little can how do you remove the burner so you can pack it back in your bag
You can close off the fuel from coming out of the canister on the actual stove. And the stove just twists on or off the canister. When the stove is not connected the canister is self sealing until you use it again. Always helps to wait a couple minutes after your done cooking before removing the stove tho since the metal gets kind of hot. Hope that helps!
almost the same kit I have 20 grams more but also got the 750 ml pot instead it works well for me :D
Can you use toaks on open flame camp fire.
Shouldn't we mention the weight of the fuel canister in our equation?
How many uses do you think or a guesstimate that you can use your gas canister for? One canister can last 5 to 10 days or longer?
im usually good at least two weeks with my usage. Your results may vary though
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors thank you. I’m only going to be in trail for 1 week or less... at a time.
What stove setup do you use for winter? I have the same setup as you but am trying to get out more this winter and am looking for alternatives.
Toaks are now at 650ml (which I have) and I use the bsr ... but cold soak in warmer weather!
Love my BRS stove! I use the same set up, except I also have the cushioned sack the toaks pot came in. I can use it as a cozy for ziploc cooking.
Nice set up.
Thank you just bought both on eBay. We will see how things work out.
Any tips on number/size of MSR fuel canisters? Doing a 330 section of the PCT this summer. Just cooking for myself once a day.
I used the smaller (200g?) on the Colorado Trail for 3 weeks or so cooking 1 to 2 times a day. By cooking, usually boiling water. I still had fuel left when I replaced the can but was walking by an outfitter in the town at the time and picked up a new one that last the rest of the trail. Think I could have made the rest of trail with the first can but didnt really seem worth testing that theory for $5 haha
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors Thanks for responding!
How many cans of fuel did you carry with you at a time and where and when did you replenish your stock when on the Appalachian Trail
Only 1 at a time. They were typically lasting me at least 2 weeks. Sometimes closer to 3 or more as I started to not use the cans for lunches at the latter half of the trail. Getting a new can was extremely easy, either an outfitter in a town, walmart, or even many grocery stores or hostels would have them available to purchase. Could also typically find cans with a decent amount of gas left in hiker boxes pretty easy too
@@ChrisGoesOutdoors Thank you
