    Amendment: I have made a claim that the Goshawk OP-100 was 85 gm in total. But I didn't realise at the time that there was still methylated spirits in the baffle which cannot be seen in the centre of burner. It helps to shake the burner to see if there is still methylated spirits in the burner. The amended weight is 70gm / 2.5 oz total for body and lid

    👍👍👍 .. interesting comparison .. thanks.
    Fill the Aluminium Can with Ceramic / Glass Wool, Fibre Glass or a strip of tightly-wound Carbon Cloth.
    Burning efficiency is not compromised and the risk of flaming fuel spillage in the event of an inadvertent knock over is greatly reduced.
    Extinguishing the flame then, in the can .. blow it out.
    Years now, I have been using my Trangia Burner with the fuel compartment filled with lightly-packed Glass Wool and topped with a strip of tightly rolled Carbon Cloth to keep everything in place.
    Burner efficiency does not appear to be ('eyeballed') noticeably compromised. Lighting the burner in below-freezing temperatures is easier and I can put a pot straight onto the pot stand thereafter .. not having wait for the 'bloom' and not have the burner go out due to it not having come up go 'operating temperature'. And, possible knockover spillage no longer an issue.
    Thanks for sharing .. take care ..

      Some of my favourites are those made from 200ml Aluminium Energy Drink Cans. I use just one Can .. the Top and Bottom cut to size, Tab removed and some extra holes punched into the flat top section to suit. Fill the top section with Ceramic / Glass Wool, Fibre Glass or a strip of tightly rolled Carbon Cloth, 'flute' the bottom rim of the top section to facilitate it's insertion into the bottom base.

    I have a few Trangias and a couple of cat can stoves. I really like the Trangia as it allows to keep unused fuel easily and the simmer ring is good for cooking and allows to extinguish without burning the seal. When used with the cook kit wind resistance is not so important. The kit provides an excellent wind shield.
    The cat can stove is light weight, cheap and incorporates the pot stand. One rides in my car in case I want to boil some water for a coffee. It also served me well at home during a power outage.

      Do you have any problems with your Trangia rubber o-ring shrinking a little and falling out.

    I just came across this vid. I had the Trangia mini stove for about 5 years but eventually the holes started plugging up which I tried to clear using a pin but it didn't help. This limited the flame output and heat distribution through the holes so I ended up throwing the stove away and getting a generic type which looks the same as the Trangia but was cheaper in price. I also found that Isopropyl alcohol produces a lot of soot so its best to use methyl hydrate. I've never heard of the Goshawk OP-100 and it seems to provide a better flame.

    I love the simplicity of the Swirling flame stove and the stand it comes with makes it a very simple and light package which is really efficient. The stand for the swirling flame actually fits on the trangia but you then obviously can't use the simmer ring. The trangia certainly is more adaptable, I recently bought a triangle for it, makes it a great set-up for one pot cooking - but for ultralight trips the Goshawk wins hands down. I also have a goshawk ERA burner, that thing is like a rocket, boils very quickly, but putting it out is scary! (pretty easy with a bit of damp rag). Thanks for the effort of doing this, appreciate it

One of the reasons I bought the trangia triangle is so I can use the simmer ring and use a bigger pot - just bought an MSR 13L ceramic pot, which is non-stick, I want to do more one-pot meals instead of buying dried food meals or boil-in-the-bags - and I guess that is a downside to the swirling flame or ERA burner is that they aren't really suitable for bigger pots, but are awesome for lightweight trips. The other bonus to the Trangia triangle is that trangia now does a gas stove that fits in the triangle (there are amazon knock-offs as well), makes the trangia set up very adaptable.

    Always glad to see people truly appreciate alcohol stoves.
    Personally I wouldn’t be caught DEAD with a canister stove. I’ve designed and built alcohol stoves for 15 years.
    There’s all kinds of lies about alcohol stoves.
    Once you understand how and more importantly WHY they work you can make them work ANY WHERE.
    I have used alcohol stoves at elevations of 7000 feet above sea level, and temperatures as low as -9 degrees Fahrenheit.
    Here’s an easy way to make an alcohol stove work when alcohol doesn’t want to burn.
    Use some super glue and glue some fiberglass wick or carbon felt on the outside of the stove. In cold temperature put alcohol inside the stove and some alcohol on the outside wick.
    Position the pot above the stove and light the wick outside the stove. The alcohol on the wick will warm the stove and start the alcohol inside the stove vaporizing and like I said you can get them to work anywhere there is oxygen in the atmosphere.
    Canister stoves forces a lot more garbage in the landfills, and it’s IMPOSSIBLE to stealth camp with a canister stove
    God bless.

      1. For no breakfast carry dehydrated or freeze dried food

    • @MatoNupai
      @MatoNupai 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Wasn’t done brother
      If you carry dehydrated food for breakfast all you have to do is boil
      Water then put the freeze dried or dehydrated food in a container with
      A good lid pour the boiling water screw on the lid and hit the trail and 8-12 minutes the food is rehydrated you’re down the trail 3/4-1 mile with no aromas to attract attention
      2. Think of switching to a side burner stove this means you don’t need the extra weight of carrying a pot stand.
      Take a look at the alcohol stoves I designed especially the mahalo and ultimate stoves. Those are made from 53 mm wide aluminum cans (the size the 8.4 ounce Red Bull energy drinks come in. They are side burners and only weigh 6.5-7 grams. Denatured alcohol burns so clean I have two alcohol stoves with more than 700 burns on them. Yes if you step on the stove you will crush it but with limited tools you can make another stove in minutes. A You Tuber with handle “Rainbow hiker” shows quickly building another alcohol stove on the trail
      Also look at the Fancee Feast alcohol stove designed by Zellph Stove works. It’s made from a cat food can, part of a tomato paste can and a piece of carbon felt. The three biggest TH-camrs who are fans of the Fancee feast stove are Colorado Camper, Paleohiker, and Hiram Cook. The Fancee Feast stove has built in pot stand and weighs only about 14 grams.

    • @MatoNupai
      @MatoNupai 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ now there’s another choice. Are you only wanting a fast boil or are you willing to wait a little longer for the boil for improved fuel economy.
      I never was a thru hiker I was only interested in short hikes lasting 1-3 days.
      But what got me to designing alcohol stoves was a Canadian cold front came all the way down to New Mexico and Texas the temperature plunged down to -9 degrees Fahrenheit with the wind blowing at 30-50 miles an hour and I was in student housing at Eastern New Mexico University and the place lost power and stayed off for 6 hours,
      I had all kinds of food but no way to heat a can of food or even make a hot cup of coffee and I decided then and there “This is never happening to me again!” So I find alcohol stoves and the gas line antifreeze “Heet in the yellow bottle and I was always wanting the fuel to last as long as possible in case the power was out for days
      The TH-camr Hiram Cook put my mahalo stove through its paces if you want to see those tests. The best video to watch is the last test of Mato Nupai’s mahalo stove .
      By the way My b Name is Two Bears but that handle was already taken so I searched the internet for Two Bears in other languages. Mato Nupai is Two Bears in Lakota.

    Good overview. I go back and forth between white spirit, alcohol and gas burners.
    I love my Trangia and the simmering ring, that allows me to drop the flame to a level where there is not to much flaming around the pot (wasted energy). I have also seen people using different percentages of alcohol (91, 97 and 99.9%). Less alcohol also reduces the flame and I am curious to test myself what the impact on the amount of used fuel and the cooking time is.

The bio ethanol hardly gives any soot and when I rub the botom of my pan with a piece of white tissue, I only see a little bit of soot coming off. The diluted version does not show any soot. As a plus, the golden-brown discoloring that I get on my titanium pan is less with the diluted ethanol.

    Nice comparision yet I think the coke can was a bit in disadvantage because the burners were placed all at the same height but the coke can's flame comes in that test deeper than one of the other two. That might make quite a bit of a difference since the distance of the flame to the pot counts.
    Else I would suggest to maybe also test, one day, the Swiss Army Notkocher M71, which consists of a simple tin with a lid and a little stand put on top of the can in order to form a complete stove.

      Sharing a little bit from my experience: You can always refill that stove with gel fuel or simply with alcohol (that's what I do normally). If you don't burn the whole gel content down but only up to 50% or so, adding alcohol and stirring leads again to gel, which will become with every refill more liquid, of course. If the seal doesn't do its job anymore, you can simply put a piece of a plastic bag or so in between can and lid, it helps. And apropos seal: better use your mug to kill the flame and not the lid, and wait for a while to let the can cool down, as the heat might affect the seal.

    Great video, thanks for sharing. I love alcohol stoves, and own a few, but have never owned a Trangia. I find it unnecessarily heavy, and looks too old-school for my taste. My top favorite burners are the Goshawk swirling OP 100, the Toaks Siphon, and the Trail Designs 12-10.
    They all have their pros and cons. The Siphon is faster but less fuel efficient. The Goshawk is more efficient but slower and a little heavier, however it’s the best looking of all and has a cap to keep leftover fuel. The 12-10 is the lightest, and I got separately a simmer ring that works great, but it’s the most delicate of the three. If you step on it by accident, it’s over… you’ll be cooking on open fire, assuming there’s dry wood around.

    I've been kind of studying it out and I think the trangia and goshawk both are similar to an open can because they are open in the middle. So, a penny stove would maybe be more efficient. How much, it's hard to say. Some people have put rolled up carbon felt in the center part of a trangia but the results are kind of inconclusive. If it's too thick, it tends to slow down the bloom too far. I think you can only make miner improvements. The simmer ring is the real advancement in the trangia. The other things you can do would probably be better like presoaking the food so it needs less heat and using a pot cozy and taking it off the heat early. Being able to put a sealed lid on it is very convenient compared to snuffing it out and pouring it back in the fuel container.

    I think it may have been fairer if the Alu can was raised to give the same flame-to-pot height.

    The "run out time" is important because it tells you overall fuel efficiency. IE: How much fuel is left over after boiling the water?

    Have carried a Trangia for decades - heated liters of water and cooked pancakes - serioulsy good hiking cookset. I have ordered the Goshawk and will undoubtedly fabricate a simmer cap. No - its not about boil time is heat control. Doubt I'd cook pancakes above the Goshawk. My Trangia boils a litre in 11 minutes - an MSR will boil that in about 3 minutes.

    Damper is for priming the stove. if you rap a flat lamp wick in the bottom you will get a better burn. down fall is black soot if alcohol is too low and burns wick. still a better burn by far.

    I love your care and that you measured results. Really well done. But I don't understand why people love the Triangia and similar burners. They are expensive, heavy and inefficient. My DIY burners use less fuel, boil faster, burn longer and cost, well virtually nothing but a little time and effort. Check it out.

      Testing a couple new design pot stands and new pot. My Easy Cheese can burner boiled 2 cups of 65F water in about 5 min 25 seconds. Then burned for total of 11 minutes. I have made versions that boil faster but are less efficient. Hope to post a video in a few days. Thanks for your content. Good stuff! Tom

    I'll take the Trangia. But the reality is... it all comes down to whether or not you have the fuel and enough of it to do everything that needs to be do. Which in my neck of the woods means keeping me warm both day and night.

    Thank you for sharing an interesting comparison and theory. Efficiency in fuels is usually determined by volume per time to temperature. In that case the trangia would be slightly more efficient than the other designs tested because of its faster time to boil. I believe most alcohol burners are used with a wind screen so wind resistance isn’t a major concern for most users. That said I prefer the trangia for several other reasons; the heat can be regulated, I already own a few and the trangia knockoffs are much cheaper than any goshawk model I’ve seen. Thus making a trangia easier to purchase for more people interested in alcohol burners. In an interest to be forthcoming most of the time I use a wood burner of some sort when I’m in the forest because I don’t have to carry the fuel it uses and rightly or wrongly I feel I’m cleaning debris from the forest. Keep up the good work.

    • @bushgearreview

      @@bushgearreview I understand that. Alcohol burns much cleaner than wood thus not sooting and creosoting the outside of pots. I’ve found rubbing the outside of my pots with bar soap before use over a wood fire to help with cleaning though. The straining can be thought of as “love marks” though lol.

    For weight weenies, you have to include total weight of each stove to the weight of fuel used to boil 500ml water in so many minutes , the alum can wins cos of its lighter weight which translates into being able to carry more fuel and thus boil more ml of water...so an accurate test for thru hikers/weight weenies etc is say, for a given weight of 100gms total (stove without lid plus fuel,) how many ml of water can that combination boil in how many minutes? So if alum can is 5 gms compared to trangia 68 gms goshawk 72 gms, the alum can is allowed 95 gms fuel, whilst trangia is allowed 32 gms fuel, goshawk is allowed 28gms fuel, so the alum can will probably be more weight efficient in that it can boil many more cups of water for a given total system weight. And even if you accidentally step on the alum can and squash it, i usually carry some spare backups at 5 gms each, not a problem, or cut a new one out of any old can lying around..i usually cut the top off a coke can and use that to "cup" the 300ml plastic fuel bottle as a protector, that extra empty coke can can be used as drinking water cup or cut into new stove if necessary..
