I can't believe how long I put up with this when the fix is so simple 😮 All the burnt pancakes, bacon, and eggs I've eaten that I didn't have to.
10 minutes after watching this, the problem was solved. Thank you!!!
I like that you had the tool to remove the knob!
Wow! Thank you. I cannot believe this worked. I complained to Coleman and they told me to buy a different stove. Was about to throw it out!
Every reviewer said this problem (probably for 100 years as I understood from reviews, haha) and you have solved this problem. How amazing and, on the other hand, how funny that coleman doesn't solve this problem. I was watching reviews to decide which stove to buy. Now I have decided that I will buy just the Coleman classic and solve the problem. I think it must be the same. thanks a lot.
Just got mine delivered today and interestingly the right burner had the low simmer problem more than the left burner. I did your fix and on both and now both are perfect. When taking the spindles out I didn’t see *any* grease on it so all. Nothing came off on the paper towel. Hitting it with WD40 did the trick so it seems more like there wasn’t enough lubricant on the spindle rather than too much. Either way it worked and temperature control is now great. Thanks for the video. Very useful.
You bloody legend.. This is my only gripe with the Coleman Hyperflame..
only thing to watch check that what ever lubricant you're using that it won't deteriorate the seal :)
another thing I wish they would do is bring out a dedicated flexible hose for us that run bottles on these, I find the reg annoying as hell and takes up too much bench space so I had the reg pipe shortened right down for when I'm using a gas bottle (I have another reg for propane) now the hose goes straight to the back along the side of the stove :D I saw another guy mod his so it comes out the back
Great vid mate. Clear, concise, and right to the point. My Coleman cooker and I both thank you 🍺
Update to below comment: Fixed the issue, used a pair of locking pliers and the nut came off easy. Less than $5 at Bunnings. Followed instructions and now works like a charm.
Thanks for the tip.
Amazing! This worked on my Coleman Classic as well. I was actually on RUclips just now looking for camp stove reviews because I was going to replace my current one due to the burner control issue. I stumbled across this, and 10 minutes later my stove is working perfectly. Thank you!!
Champion.
Seems the rubber seals were sticking causing the knob to bounce back.
This video saved me sending this back to the shop.
Now rate it the best camp stove out there
Thanks heaps for the hot tip champ, my wife and I were looking at buying one of these cookers but were put off due to the flame issue, after seeing your video it was then a no brainer for us to buy one, which coincidentally we got on sale today at Anaconda 50% off.
Cheers once again..
The only reason I wasn't purchasing this was due to the simmer issue, but having watched this video I've just bought one. Cheers mate.
Found a new one for 68.00 in the USA and saw reviews and decided not to get it, now I am because of you, thanks so much!! 👊
Bought one of these today from BCF, first thing I did was hook it up and turn it on to see how low it would go. Success with a small flame on both burners. Pulled the spindles out anyway and no grease on them at all, but some sort of lubricant. Either they forgot to grease mine, or their listening to feedback. Gave them a clean anyway. Love your channel bro, good work.
For anyone with the even temp model, in order to get the knobs off you need to peel off the silver stickers on the knobs to expose a screw, then remove screw and knob. After that in order to get to greased knobs in the above video, you’ll have to remove the silver metal base plate to expose the screws for the handle as well as base plates for the knobs - after removing these parts you’ll then be able to follow the rest of the above video
Was it worth it though? I've got a Cascade 328 which is the same 3 burner system as the EvenTemp. The burners on it aren't "jet-style" like the ones in this video, so it already gets down pretty low, though with a relatively narrow knob range. But there's no "fighting back" like his video shows here.
Just curious what impact you saw on an EvenTemp.
Thanks guys, fantastic fix….I was about to send my Coleman hyper flame to the tip! 10 minute job & all good. After buying a simmer ring & lots of swearing. 👍🏼
Thanks for the video. It's entertaining and informative. This is a nice and easy fix that allows for a simmer flame to be achieved if the dial is very carefully adjusted. But there remains a major problem with these valves. The simmer flame setting is at about -3º to -5º on the dial. From no flame at all to the the very highest flame possible requires the dial to be adjusted as little as 22º. It is much too sensitive and does not allow for quick, easy adjustment. The dial can continue to be turned through a full 360º to 720º and further but it makes no difference to the flame. For the price of this stove Coleman should providing a more sophisticated valve with a much more user friendly adjustment. It is a major shortcoming to a stove which otherwise has some very good features.
good guide but idk why coleman a million dollar company would not fix this problem themselves
Coleman is owned by a company who owns many other companies. They no longer take pride in or care about the quality of their products.
Exactly
I looked at a lot of videos about the Fyreknight before I bought one last week. Your explanation of getting the flame to remain low is by far the best, especially the closeups. First thing I did was disassemble and clean so I could get the very low flame -- works like a charm! The only complaint I have is my piezo igniter doesn't work on either burner...no tick-tick-tick, just goes in and out. But I'm not returning it over that... If I did that, I might get a worse one in return! ~ Kir in Middle Tennessee, USA
@Trikk No, I didn't expect it to be exactly like a home stove. But the piezo igniter just DOESN'T work; it won't light either burner... I have to manually light it every time on both burners. As I said, I'm not returning it for that because otherwise it does work. ~ Kir in Middle Tennessee, USA
Cool. I’m looking to buy this cooker and heard about this issue so it put me off. But this looks like a simple fix so I will still buy the fyreknight. Cheers mate!
You bloody legend! I bought this a couple of months ago but haven’t used it because of the Victorian lockdown. Just went out to the shed to open it up. Tested it out and had the same problem. Followed your advice and it’s a bloody awesome unit now. Thanks for the tip. Keep up the good work.
I got this home a couple of days ago and it had the same problem. It would jump up once you let the knob go. Really hard to get it to go low. Tried this and it works brilliantly. Great tip. Now it is perfect. Thanks mate.
Just completed this tweak. And it works a treat.
Just did this fix on my Hyperflane Champion. Testing next week. Thanks
Great video, saw this fix mentioned in the commentz of the Ronny Dahl video on the cooker and you mase a concise and no fluff video showing exactly how. Cheers! Subbed.
Thank you so much. Was going to sell or throw in the trash. The no low flame was a big disappointment. Going to give this a try. Again THANK YOU so much Mate.
The Greece protects the Longevity of the working parts this is an old hack Revisited😮
The best option is to get one of the little canister single burner with half a bottle of gas works brilliantly on your toast and things you just want to simmer real low 😊
Gave it a go today and wasn’t a lot of grease to wipe of but did make a difference to the purging and set to low a lot better. Thanks for sharing.
Ours has no adjustment at all. This fix looks pretty easy. I hope it does the trick. Thanks.
Thanks for this tip. Simmering inability was my only con with my FyreGeneral. Cheers.
Mate legend, I stopped using my Hyperflame since last year. Been using my other Coleman 3 burner stove. I’ll do this mod now and see how it goes
Man thank you so much!! This video needs at least one millions views so easy to fix the problem it is ridiculous !!
Great Video mate thanks for the tips. I’ve just purchased this stove today (12 March 2021) as a replacement for an old single burner. It looks as though Coleman may have finally listened to all the reviews. When I pulled the spindles out there was no visible grease on them, they actually looked dry. So I followed the steps anyway and added some silicon lube to each. Before I did the second one I tested them both. Prior to silicon it actually sounded squeaky and didn’t turn as easily. Now both burners are spot on, easy to adjust and no probs getting a ‘simmer’ flame.
You should see if you can fix the Zempire deluxe stove. It burns so hot that I bought one of these.
Thankyou for this super easy and great fix brand new Coleman works a treat 👌👍
Exactly what my Hyperflame does, awesome cooker but this is so annoying. Going to try the fix this weekend.
Great fix! ... proper high temp grease for the O rings ,... Anderson-Forrester VA126 Graphite Grease
I was so close to buying a new burner. You're a legend!
Works ! Easy ! First time the plastic knobs come off you need to ease them off from several different angles and a wee bit of wiggling - don't use brute force. If you use pliers to remove nut be careful so as not to butcher the nut. Same goes for spindle, I wrapped a small piece of cloth around spindle. Cheers, good one ( Not you bloody Coleman ! ).
Good advice mate, thanks for that. It seems Coleman has started sealing the knobs in place in the recent models as mine came off easy (in the video was the first time the RHS knob was ever removed), but have heard others also mention the later ones are a bit more stuck in place. 😕
GUMP!...YER AH GAT DAMN GENIUS! I LOVE IT! Wow dude, you rocked that customized kitchen on yer truck!!!🤙👍
Excellent video. Thank you so much for taking the time to teach us. Well done!
It just amazes me the we pay a small fortune for these Coleman appliances and they have such ridiculously simple problems that could/SHOULD have been sorted in the factory!!
Same goes for the USELESS arm that sticking out the side like some 'after-thought'.
Mate thankgod i found you,,,,a big thankyouuuuuu
This worked!!!! Thank you!!!! Now I can use the stove to cook at a reasonable heat instead of as a blow torch :)
Thanks for the tip! I used this a lot on my trip to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons two weeks ago and the flame was just two high. I received it as a wedding gift and really want to fix it. Glad to see it is this easy and will try this tomorrow! LIKED and Subscribed! Thanks bud! - Colorado USA
I'm about to buy one for 68.00 brand new, then decided not to cause of reviews, saw this, now i'm getting it. Colorado here too! 👊
Good to know, I just bought this cooker today at bcf.
Hey mate great fix. What hose did you use to connect to the propane bottle fitting? Cheers great video
Great video. Very clear. You have a great laid back style.
going to have to try this mod on my even-temp Coleman, hopefully it's the same fix 👍🏻
*update, the even-temp is different 😭
Great approach: tells me the tools I'll need up front. Safety first with the decoupling of the fuel source. And, no arrogance on the fix. Simple. By the way, why does the Coleman oil cause this problem? And, is this a general problem and fix with different manufacturers?
Thanks Stephen! Regarding the coleman grease, I think that over time it looses it's lubricative abilities resulting in it causing the very problem it was suppose to fix. Cheers.
Well done mate, my Coleman cooker works a charm now. Thankyou. 👍👍
Well how about that. I'll give this fix a try this weekend. Thanks.
I will give this a try on mine. I fight with the knob and can get it low to where it’s flickering and almost going out and it is still really hot. Is there a way to adjust something to make them go lower without going out?
Thanks for the video, this was the fix my Coleman fold n go stove needed.
Thank you. The BCF sales assistant showed me your video when I told him about the problem I had been experiencing with the Coleman Hyperflame I bought last year.
I pulled out the spindles and there was no grease on them, so I added some INOX Lanolin spray and now it is capable of a low flame. This is a bad design feature from Coleman. They clearly did not test this during manufacture. So many people have complained about it. Like other comments, I was going to throw mine in the bin as well.
good video mate. i have the Coleman Triton and don't have this problem but ill keep in mind just in case it does this.
I don’t know how you worked this out Mucker but it worked for me over in the UK. Thanks Pal, appreciate you sharing this vid and your wisdom. 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice basic vid mate. 👍 straight to the point and well done.
Wow, that is so simple. Thanks for sharing.
This hack totally works -- I'm not even sure why, but it does. :)
Only thing is inox drys up meaning the o ring will dry up as well, it will crack an let gas out the front of the spindles. There’s a reason why there is thick grease.
Excellent...
Dude you are a genius!!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!!
why does this not work with their grease though is a question im curious to know?
That’s amazing! Thank you so much!!! Love my stove except for this issue. Boom.
I reckon they've changed the nut, I just tried to do this. The nut is now pentagonal (5 sides) so you can't get good purchase with the pliers. I didn't want to force it too much because I already started to strip the nut 😢
Yeah I have same problem with mine. Was about to do this on the day I left for a trip. Couldn’t work how to get the pentagonal nut off.
You legend, thank you so much for this video...
Hi mate, just bought another one of the hyperflames, jumped straight to your video again to fix it. It looks like they glued to knobs on now. So yeah you can still remove them, not "gently" though 😅
What truck camper are you using? It looks like a great idea, especially if it happens to have a bed in it.
Hi Patrick, it's a lift off aluminium canopy that sits on the back of my Ford Ranger (I'll link a video below showing the canopy). In the early days I did sleep in the opposite side as it's roughly the size of a single bed, although being a metal box it was freezing in the winter haha. Canopy: ruclips.net/video/UVRLEaZRGyw/видео.html
Thanks for putting up this video. It's been very helpful.
Dude! It works!
Bloody awsomme cheers.
Absolutely friggin awesome tip and video. Thank you !
Thanks heaps for the tip. Can I ask is that flexible hose for connection to the small gas tanks?
Also how long is it please.
Thanks again
Mick
Liquid wrench work for lubricant?
Thanks so much an issue fixed perfectly
Brilliant, works a treat! Cheers
Great video, think you've helped a lot of people 👍
Absolute legend! Thanks for the hack. Problem solved.
Top tips mate!! Thanks
Great video ! Gonna try the fix. Keep up the good work cheers 👍
Problem solved,thanks so much bro.👍🏽
Based on the other comments, I’m sure this fix must work, but I’m confused as to why. Removing the Coleman lubricant, then adding lubricant back does what exactly mechanically?
thanks for that as i was put of buy a friend who said the same thing but know will be purchasing one
thanks again
Top job mate!
that was awesome, thank you so much for making this.
Bought one of these based on reviews of cooker and this great video for the fix. BUT... the bastards at Coleman must of got on to this and changed the nut to a pentagon which is impossible to remove. $300 cooker that won't go low.
Same problem. How to remove a pentagonal nut…
Worked great thanks mate.
Awesome!! Thanks so much for the tip!!!
Legend bro
Thank you very much.
Excellent thanks
awesome, very hellpful, thanks for sharing.
A good hack! Thanks
Excellent video mate. Very clear and concise instructions. Well done! Worked for me 🤙🏽
I’d just like to say silicon spray would be a lot better as crc/inox can cause rust to build up.
How do you figure inox builds rust?? It’s an alternative to silicon spray or even better use Lanox
Absolute legend thank you 🙏🏽
I live and camp most of the time above 6000-7000 feet, so I don’t have the problem of the higher flame, but I like this modification. So after a year, how is it still working?
Still working perfectly after a year or so 🙂
awesome fix :)
