Cooking With a Camp Burner When Mountaineering

By Jason Farley


When camping one of the most important items of equipment that you require is that of the portable gas stove. These very useful tools were first invented in the 19th century and now in the present day there's a large variety of models and designs to select from, relying of course which activity and situation you need one for.

Portable gas stoves used to be only run using the fuel kerosene but because of safety reasons other fuels were developed. Butane and propane gases are most generally used today but firms such as Coleman, the successful American company that specializes in producing products for the camping sector, have even developed their own fuels for camping stoves. Coleman has it's own fuel that is called White Gas or Camping Fuel. This fuel is ideal for campers in all weathers as it even burns in freezing conditions, is extraordinarily clean and refined and essentially burns warmer than other liquid fuels.

If you are considering upgrading your current portable gas stove or indeed looking to buy your first then the Coleman 425F499G 2 burner portable gas stove is well deserving of your consideration. It is good for any camping journey whether or not it's staying in a cabin, a tent or just plain outside under the stars.

This Coleman stove operates on 2.5 pints of fuel (Coleman White Gas) and only 1 tank will give you roughly 8 hours of burn time. To boil a quart of water just takes only 4 minutes! How good is that? It has also got a 11500 BTU burner and the entire package weighs a mere 12.5 pounds making it very easy to transport.

One of the main endowments however of this camping stove is the indisputable fact that it is virtually maintenance free and providing that you clean it after each camping trip it should stay in superb condition. It is not the most beautiful of looking stoves on the market today, but if you're like me, then looks aren't that critical and you may fall completely in love with it anyhow due to it's fantastic qualities and function abilities.
