    Have had mine for over 10 yrs now. I love it. The grill will also hold a smaller diam. pot than the 3 legs may handle. I use wood pellets and drizzle hand sanitizer on top to light it. Today, as a matter of fact, I used 1 1/2 cups of pellets w/no additional fuel of any kind and at 42 minutes it still boiled 8 oz. of water. Bestest, cheapest stove you can buy.

    When I fill a twig stove, I try to remember to lay it on its side, and slide in the wood sideways. You can get more fuel in that way. After erecting the stove, I lay the kindling and tinder on top and start the fire. While the fire is blossoming, a cup of tea goes nicely.

    Re: sauerkraut, I introduced my foster kids to 'fried sauerkraut' and it was a huge mistake. They REFUSE to use 'raw' sauerkraut now. Any time I use sauerkrautnow, it HAS to be fried or they won't eat it (brats, schnitzel, hot dogs).
    And I congratulate you on demonstrating the PROPER use of a gasification stove. I can't tell you many 'sheeple' I've had to correct on their MISuse of these; and their faulting of the stove vs their inability to recognize that these are NOT 'twig stoves'.

    Hey Mike, I also like the Folger's coffee singles. A helpful hint if you are just making coffee - After pouring out the coffee from the packet, you can fold it into a stirring stick instead of having to get your spoon out. Not a huge deal, but you don't have to wash a coffee packet.

    If you were to use the little tray with liquid fuel I would recommend you use a piece of rockwool sat in said little tray to have the liquid fuel absorbed into so that does not spill in case you knock the stove over...

    The best way for me to get effecient use out of gasifiers is to bundle your wood and put it all in straight up and down position and I stuff it in as much as possible then I do a top down fire. I never seem to have to add or feed the fire after that and it gasifies quickly. I think its just drawing up more air and getting more direct surface contact that way but who knows.

    Great video! Used the stove properly with some actually explanations for the uninformed. I pair this kind of stove with a multitool saw (twigs) and a portable chainsaw for anything wider than my thumb. I have cleared logs on my way instead of jumping over them with the chainsaw, it's great! In case of emergency I have a very good bushcraft base, and i can go on bikepacking/canoeing without worry. Always keep an alcohol stove inside in case things are too wet, or can't find dry wood. Perfect combination where weight and pack size don't matter as much as while hiking. I can save weight from the saws by making my own tent pegs if i wanted to, and store the stove in the MSR stowaway if hiking light, but an alcohol stove will still outperform.

      @@kikito707 actually that wood was hickory and much harder to break than normal. I have found it useful to keep the wood close to the top edge and similar in length so they burn uniformly. If you have tried to break hickory into small segments with your hands it can be difficult.
      Thanks for watching and I don’t mind the comments. Glad to explain what what I’m thinking! Appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

      I get ya but these stoves are not the best for going light, they do require any size saw to work, even a multi tool one which is what I use. That allows you to place you wood right under the vents, making it burn for as long as possible before refueling.
