    I have the zip and have had it for yrs but haven't used it a whole lot until recently and have found it doesn't have enough space if you are heating up MRE's. It's more suited to Mountain House meals and hot chocolate/Coffee or heating up some soup. I wish that I had used it more earlier after purchasing. At the time it was around $115-125 ish Cdn.

    You didn’t mention the Mighty Mo, not that it really matters. It’s basically a Mini, with more power for faster boiling. And just the stove, no pan, no frills.
    The Micro Mo is newer, and something between the Mini and Stash. Less power, no/poor simmer control. It does have an igniter. Great little stove, but expensive.

    I find I can regulate the flame to a degree with my flash ....and do cook on it with the summit skillet... mostly ‘coz no spare cash atm to add the minimo and ‘coz it does kinda work pretty reasonably for cooking without burning and is awesome at boiling water!

    • @ChaseChristopher1
      @ChaseChristopher1  3 года назад +2

      You bet. Yeah, cooking is totally doable, just a bit more challenging without the regulator. Make use of what you have 👍👍

    • @eumaeus
      @eumaeus 2 года назад +4

      Yes, I too find I can regulate the gas. However, it's not by design so with minimal gas output, it is prone to the wind blowing it out.
      I think I'm the only weirdo that carries this, a trangia mini (with fuel) and a wood stove.

    @alexanderweaver4838 3 года назад +5

    Great demonstration and advice, Chase. I like the MiniMo for car camping to supplement a single burner Coleman camp stove I use for cooking meals. To protect my canister I enclose it in a hunter's thick wool sock and have not experienced any issues. A backpacking stove that has impressed me was my first Coleman Peak 1 which lasted 37 years. In January it gave up and quit on me and I had to use a BRS for backup. I bought a new Peak 1 and I love that it has a flame regulator for boiling to simmering. However, for high efficiency JetBoil is it.

    Man, Jetboil is an incredible company who can deliver in some situations that the vast majority of other offerings can't even hope to compete, that said, 99% of people would be better served by a simple MSR pocket rocket and a bottle of fuel. If your an ultralight guy/gal (whatever else you wanna be to be PC) this company should be near/at the top of your list, PCT, and a bunch of other 20+ mile a day type trails it's a great fit, but if your humping a few miles in, staying a couple days to a week, look elsewhere, you can save a ton of money for a few oz/couple lb depending on how you go

    Tip: do not fill the pots to much. If the water boils over it can flow down the side and extinguish the flame. Attempting to restart after this can result in the combustion of the insulation in the burner destroying it.

    Jetboil marketing is amazing. They sell these based on speed of boil and fuel efficiency. If i’m relaxing in the countryside i can wait an extra 30s to boil water - i’m not in a rush. And the fuel canisters have 20 boils so why do i need fuel efficiency. I’m not hiking 10 days with no resupply - so fuel efficiency is pretty useless. I’m not saving money on fuel because the jetboil is so expensive. For car camping i use real pots and pans from home on a 2 burner stove or cast iron in the fire. For hiking i want a lightweight toaks mug that can boil water for rehydrating food and coffees. I would only maybe use a jetboil for if i was on a roadtrip and wanted a cup of coffee on the way - even then i would probably stop at a cafe. Dunno - i cant see me using these

    I just use my 25 year old Trangia kit. Aluminium cookware.Brass spirit stove. Lightweight , simple, will light in a gale.
    I bottle of mentholated spirits will last for weeks and is very cheap fuel.
    Not likely to but a jet-boil.
