Paul, I have been using a Sterno stove folding aluminum grill for setting pots and frying pans on. Works really well. No worry about tipping over while having a pint. Really just found your channel and enjoy your videos of those beautiful forest.
Good seeing you Paul. I was with you on RUclips when you were hardly able to walkabout. You're doing so much better nowadays. GOOD GOING 👍. I think that 🐛 caterpillar was sharing their log with you, 😆. Even with the heat source he/she was pretty strident about staying there.
Paul, you should try a corned beef hash. One pot cooking at its best, onion, potato, small tin of corned beef, Worcester sauce and a bit of gravy powder.
Watched a few of your videos Paul....you're certainly NOT useless mate. I love your easy calm approach to the use of the gear and cooking etc. I have just bought a Trangia 27 and alcohol and gas burner. Gonna use one for the brew and the other for the cooking. It's mainly for use when I go out on my motorbike for a brew and a fry up really, so I can just stop wherever and whenever I want. Looking forward to it !
Thank you for introducing me to your mini-adventures! Recent health issues have strangled any ideas of strenuous activity here so dreams of attacking any project like the AT, PCT, P45 or even the Pennine Way is just ludicrous. But you've shown me that I can still wander a short distance from the car-park, meet some wildlife, cook a simple meal and return home wearing a big smile on my face! One question remains tho...... does bear-repellant spray work on caterpillars?
I find if you give a Caterpillar a good stiff talking to they just do whatever they want! Bear spray might be the best way! The short walks are just as nice ;)
Hi Scott, I am making videos but my PC keeps blue screening when i render them. I am trying to fix it, hope to have a video up by the end of next week if i get it sorted ;)
This is awesome Paul. I’ve got a trangia and a zebra lunchbox. I use it to make a brew but I was thinking today...could you cook a decent meal on something so small. Off to YT and there you are! Great pro-tips all through this vid - Thanks again! Mark.
Nice vid paul, top piece of kit the trangia triangle, good tip for a small cup, i use my triangle the opposite way up from yours and slide 2 cheap tent pegs through the holes to hold a cup but I will try your way next time, cheers.......johny
Some good tips their paul. Made me hungry watching you cooking again. I think I'm going to watch your videos after I have eaten lol. The hills are a nightmare some times. Always nice to walk down them . Thanks for sharing atb mo
Nice tip Paul for when using a smaller pot.. I just cut a square out of a backing rack for sitting on the top of trangia triangle. I've got a video on my channel. Atb Glenn
It’s been a long time since I used a basic gas cooker alongside the Trangia, but I found over a week I spent less on meths (from a hardware shop) than I did on gas canisters. I have stuck with the Trangia ever since, 27, triangle and solo. They seem to be the marmite of the camping world. The bonus is you get your own time frame per fill which comes in really handy for putting on a stew whilst setting up your tent, no worry of it falling over.
Hi Paul. Thanks for a great little video. I enjoyed this. I dislike hearing anyone putting themselves down. You are most certainly not useless my friend. There are always plenty of A-holes that are ready to put you down, so don't do it to yourself. Just keep getting out and about, and more good video's like this. I always like the look of British and European woods. So much nicer than the very harsh Australian bush. Do you mind me asking what area you live in? Thanks.
Paul. Like your chanel. A tip I was given. When using the fire starter. Hold the steel still and pull the rod away from the trangia. Still sparks but stops knocking the stove over.
Trangia say it's a spirit burner so i guess any high alcohol content fuel will be ok. I find if the fuel isn't high in alcohol it will get dirty quickly and soot up. I add a little water to my Meths to stop it blackening the pots. Try different fuels and see which one burns the cleanest.
Paul Bisseker Bushcraft well I am a know it all ☺ Trangia burners are very good, in comparison, at height and in cold conditions. In the middle ages there was a town in , what is now, southern Sweden named after London "Luntuntun " (London town) which was the old name for London, York was called ""Jorvik " during the viking age. If I where in wood in England I would use a wood burning stove but on a hill in Cumbria or Yorkshire a spirit burner.
Check around for an interview with the current head of Trangia. His pronunciation is closer to "Traniya" or "Tranyia". Maybe it's a local dialect thing.
steveH a I tried to spell out a pronounciation för english speakers. I know how it sounds in Swedish. It is whit a twang in trang like in twang . Hence I wrote THRANG it is like song, sanguine or throuff but trang like twang but a more guttural g. Throngh but a t not th ( which is the old thurs Rune sound which in early latin lettered English texta where written with an Y ye olde shoppe =The old shop Y=th) Trångsund is pronounced like strong without the s.
Great informative video Paul. I’ve got the triangle and will try it for a brew next time I’m out. I’ve also got the 25 which I’ve had for years and have just ordered the 27 to cut down on pack size for motorbike touring etc. I noticed you have both the 25 and the 27. Quick question, have you found the 27 notably more efficient than the 25 with it being that much smaller? The trangia stuff is all brilliant for different purposes but find when frying with the 25 the heat is very focussed on the centre and much cooler around the outside? Thanks, Paul
I tend to use a folding windshield when frying with 25 even the 27 as the heat blows away. I haven't noticed any difference between them for cooking. Then i haven't thought about it. I have the billy can for the 27 so i can use it for larger meals to share. If you want one look at the "Trangia 24 Camp Set" you get a lot for your money.
Interesting video Paul. How do you find the fit of the Bulin gas burner on the Trangia Triangle? Just got one today and it doesn't sit level in the holder of the triangle. I'm sure it will still work OK but just wondered if that was your experience of it.
The gas adapter doesn't clip in, it just sits there like the spirit burner. I just jiggle it about until it levels out. You won't have any problems as long as you don't kick it over. Let us know what you think after using it for a bit ;)
trangia style burner keep far all food powl and fry pan if want eat good food, mean denatured alcohol stay wery bad taste ewery powl or food if keep same place, need keep own plastic bag and other pocket in backpak than all other cooking parts. burner need keep alltime own plastic bag. and burn sure empty at fuel after cooking, and keep fuel far all cooking stuff and food. i have uses trangia my hiking last 25 year ewery weekend.
You are very unfit my friend. Be careful out there, free kit from these sponsors just isn’t worth it. Nice to see you out making the effort though. Good luck. Thanks for the vid.

Thanks for the motivation. The hills are a good work out. 😉
Paul, I'm liking the channel immensely. Your no hype and just a fella who like to be in the wood cooking a meal. Just a real good time.
Thanks Aaron 👍
Simple and cool.
Nice guy, great films, always explains things well. Appreciated!
Thanks JP ;)
Enjoyed rewatching this old vid. Ian
Nice walk out and a bit of lunch too.
You are one of life's winners 👍
Thank you
You got me into out door cooking

Enjoy your vids mate. Keep up the good work! Honest and informative reviews 👍🏻
Nice tip for smaller cups/ pots it saves taking a bent tent peg along to sit them on
Please make more videos paul

Your pan's very useful
Thanks a lot 😊

Thanks Mo, it's best to watch them when you are eating i find :)
I love my Keith rice cooker

Does the disassembled triangle fit flat on the Zebra 14 bottom?
no
@@PaulBissekerBushcraft thanks a lot for your reply
lot better drain water out powl if drill some holes to top cover. then drain good and food not go out.
Good tip!
Good video Paul I used my Trangia 27 for the first time last night and very good but thought it burnt the fuel quickly.
Use the simmer ring to save fuel. It helps.
It’s been a long time since I used a basic gas cooker alongside the Trangia, but I found over a week I spent less on meths (from a hardware shop) than I did on gas canisters.

Hi what fuel do you use
nice paul, dont cut out the eating part, thats the hihglight imo
Paul. Like your chanel. A tip I was given. When using the fire starter. Hold the steel still and pull the rod away from the trangia. Still sparks but stops knocking the stove over.
Good advice 👍
What camera are you using mate? I like it.
I use a Gopro 5 Black as my main camera. Samsung S6 and S8 as my back up cameras.
Nice video Paul...what Berghaus pack is that one? Thanks
It's an old "twenty four seven 25" must be 10 years old.
good vid, what type of alcohol did you used?
I use Meths (Methylated Spirit)
which is best to use with the trangia burner, methanol or ethanol ? thanks
Trangia say it's a spirit burner so i guess any high alcohol content fuel will be ok. I find if the fuel isn't high in alcohol it will get dirty quickly and soot up. I add a little water to my Meths to stop it blackening the pots. Try different fuels and see which one burns the cleanest.
Ever tried mountain house meals
Tran-gia sounds Italian, maybe a traverse route?, it is pronounced Thrang-eeya since it was first made in Trångsund "Trång-sund" "Narrow Strait/Neck".
Yes i know in the UK it's not pronounced correctly. Thanks for the information.

@@PaulBissekerBushcraft Thanks for the quick response as ever.
Anyone know why nobody ever takes the label off their Zebra pots before using?
They are well stuck on! Mine has been burnt, baked and scrubbed! still on there ;)
Lol! They come off really easy in one piece if you do it before using the Zebra pot for the first time.
I think I got the 16 pot
I have the 16cm it's a good pot.
Paul where do you poop in the woods.. I have ibs an have to do it alot
bring toilet paper and a small spade
Ima invest in bush box xl
It's a good stove
