The strainer is a great accessory, very useful. The best aspect of this cooker is that it is completely storm proof! I've seen so many stupid boil tests on kitchen tables that don't mean a damn thing when you're cold, tired and hungry and your fancy propane stove keeps blowing out, or losing its heat, or worse still, tips over with a dinner ration you can't replace on the trail. Forget the three and a half minutes to boil water in the kitchen. The Trangia is bullet proof; a little more weight for total peace of mind in all conditions, on any surface. I love my Trangia :)
I have both the 27 with the kettle and the 28 (Trangia mini) which is great for solo day hikes. Great bits of kit and will last a lifetime. Great video. When using tge strap have the buckle on the bottom to reduce scratching.
The tea kettle is my favourite. It's just the right size, works well with other cook gear, and looks great. Kind of a luxury item, but so was tea, once upon a time.
"You can't have too much gear, in my opinion." I wholeheartedly agree with you sir. I have tons of stuff, some of it I've never used. But, it's there if I need it! Great video btw. Thanks for sharing!
That's a great set-up. This is the kind of gear that gets my wife out on the trail. It looks perfect for couples, easy to use. Thanks for the breakdown, very helpful. It might not be ultra light but you can't complain about the weight, even with the accessories. I hope we can see this set in use! Thank s for posting this.
A plastic IKEA placemat/thin craft cutting surface cut into a circle that fits into your frypan will protect your non-stick and give you a cutting board, too.
Thank you my friend! I hope to be showing this one in action soon... I have been playing on the porch just trying to figure out what else I need.... Syrup ,butter, tad bit"O" oil is about it....lol... Thanks for watching my brother!
Great review. Looks like an awesome kit. If I had the cash I'd go and buy it now. I guess I'll have to ad it to my wish lists. Thanks for sharing. Robert
Nice review. Can I just add something that is useful on the model 25 that you may be able to do with the 27. When the kettle is placed in the middle of the cooking pots and packed into the stove body for storage it can be clamped securely in place to stop it rattling. Put the kettle in as normal, then fold in the three arms/supports. If you now rotate the kettle one of the folded supports will clamp into the raised base of the kettle handle and lock the kettle in place :)
At Campsaver today it would come to$145.28 plus tax. as I have it set up. But if you piece it together like I did its not such a blast to the wallet. Also the basic Aluminum is not as spendy. Thanks for watching!
You can also get one with a non anodized windscreen, which is fine and cheaper. I bought a trangia 25-2 and a knockoff. Came in at a little under the price of the fully anodized set and i got two whole kits, and swapped the trangia pots for the anodized knockoff. Lava endurance 400 stove works perfectly, but some of the lesser ones like the Alocs, robens or ferrino are okay too
Too funny Tom! Pharroah's recent video had me looking at those various Trangia kits too - we're all connected here on TH-cam aren't we - LOL! Impressive set. I can picture you frying up some prime filet mignon for Teresa and you in the backwoods in a future outing, haha! Thanks for sharing your very fine kit.
That really is a great lookin' kit brother Tom. I've been wanting one as well. In good time. Just like anything :o) Ultralite isn't always the way to go. It all depends on the Plan. Like you said, can never have too much gear. Always great to have options. Hope to see ya cookin' up a storm with it in the near future. Thanks for the close up brother.
Hey Tom, Great review! Looks like a great little cook kit! I have the mini trangia and love it! I need the Kettle next I don't have that, it looks awesome!
Ive always like Trangia stuff - very well thought out for sure... i have tea kettle from evernew love that little thing lol but im diggen the trangia design much more!!! I also use my Blue Hill UL-2 upside down on my trangia stove as a UL setup... excellent vid sir thanks for sharing
I have the bag, it fits nice. Little bit of extra room in the bag for other items. There is room inside the nesting setup for some other stuff even with the kettle inside, like coffee, tea, spoon, etc.
There is a little room for a few satchels of tea or coffee in the kettle. If you purchase the bag you would have plenty of room for everything else. I found that 30 F and lower the snow warmer kit is a great help
It p!asked me off that kettle won't really fit into the bowl and spout is bothering slightly . I don't know what the purpose of it or what they were thinking when they designed it. ..
Morning! Its been very nice with no skeeters!! LOL Works been keeping us busy but we hope to hit the trail soon. GSI gear vid is coming up soon. Take care out there! Tom
Hi! I am fairly new to the system and I found your video very informative and interesting. A quick question. Difference between normal aluminium and anodised in practical terms when it comes down to cooking and cleaning? And how robust? That would be very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do the video and share it.
Anodized aluminum has a none stick quality to it. But its not totally nonstick like Teflon . But it is easier to clean burned on stuff and it makes the aluminum more dent resistant. I would buy anodized over straight aluminum any day if I had the option. Thanks for posting!
Great minds think alike my friend! The rest are just catching up. for the better of the group!... Teresa Loves Filet Mignon ! and Me To!! Thanks for watching bro!!
That’s a complete looking kit! How has the ha coating held up? Trangia has just rereleased the ‘Duossal’ line of pot sets. The Duossal has aluminum outside but stainless steel inside the pots and pan. It makes for an extremely durable and scrubbable surface. The hardness of the ha surface is often touted as one of its selling points. Have you found the ha surface to be scrubbable and durable?
The Hard anodizing has held up great over the years. The nonstick pan has held up well but has one small nick in the nonstick surface. It doesn't effect cooking at the moment but I could see it getting bigger for the years to come. The duossal might be a good option. Im thinking of buying the pan and trying it out.
'mornin Tom & Tresa; Great gear purchase,can't wait to see the trail cookin',next up, GSI ? will stay tuned for that one for sure.Hope All's well There With You & Yours. Happy Trails From The Maritimes In Canada Yee-Haw,- No-Skeeders !!! L O L " GOD BLESS "
Very nice setup and lots of accessories. they well thought it out.nice vid and be a pleasure to use that kit im sure. So what was the price of all that ?
At 6:45 you mentioned someone's channel who does good Trangia cooking vids- could you name that channel hear pls, I couldn't hear who you said- many thanks!
I was given to understand that hard anodized was not strictly speaking not-stick like a Teflon coating is but it is 'almost non stick'. The benefit over Teflon though is that it is much,much harder wearing and will not flake off into your food over time.
Its my understanding that Hard Anodizing purpose is to protect the aluminum and has nothing to do with a none stick coating.Some think that cooking on aluminum is bad for your health and that the aluminum scratches and dents to easily.Hard Anodizing fixes this while keeping the weight to a minimum.Trangia Offers a Teflon coating on both bowls and fry pan in separate kits on there web site. Thanks for watching!
TomsBackwoods Hard Anodising is not meant as you say designed to be non stick it is by happy coincidence almost non stick though. That was the point I was making.
Yep, hard anodized is 'pretty much' non-stick. Most of your modern, quality kitchen 'non-stick' cookware is hard-anodized aluminium. It is a process (ie a surface modification, not a coating) so there is nothing to flake off, and it produces "industrial sapphire" which is pretty hard and slippery. You can use metal utensils, but they can still scratch through the anodizing if you aren't careful so plastic or wood is still better. Unless you have rough kids using knives and forks to scrape and stir, it is a much better surface than the bare aluminium.
Its not to bad. I have one tiny spot that has flaked off but hasn't gotten any bigger yet its about the size of a pens point. I'm keeping an eye on though. I have the Stainless steel version now.
I have been debating between this kit and the 27-5HA with the non-stick pots. What I am wondering is if the HA pots are at least somewhat non-stick or would getting the non-stick pots be better? Has the non-stick surface on your fry pan held up? Thanks for the great video!
I have the non stick pan but yes he HA pots seem to work well for non stick. The cooking surface has held up well but the underside has a huge burn spot that you can expect from the burner. Still works great! Im thinking of getting the 25 for the bigger pots and pan for car camping. Great kits!
TomsBackwoods I have a 25 Duossal with a larger optional frypan with nonstick. Bought this 18 years ago for family hiking. Works great! kited with both alco and gasburner. Later years i have complemented with a 27 all HA with multifuel burner X2, a Mini Trangia (28) and a Swedish Army stove kit in new condition from surplus, just hade to get it since it has been popular, works lake a champ and I had it when i did my service in Army. Should do a video about them with comparison ;)
Does the hard anodized seem thicker or sturdier than the ultra light aluminum version? On some other ha cookware I have ruined some by burning food in it. Any experience with burning food?
The hard anodized is definitely sturdier and is the main reason that its used. It makes aluminum sturdier and gives it a none stick effect but nothing like Teflon. I have not burned any food but it depends on the burner that you are using. The Trangia can be controlled and adjusted but it takes practice. I have cooked steak, eggs,popcorn, pizza and many other foods with good success . But learning the burner and the simmer lid is the key .
Hey Tom, nice cook kit and great review, my friend. It's always good to have a good cooking set and a woman... who can cook well. :-D haha Thanks for sharing, brother. All the best to you and Teresa. :-) Greetings Tito
You said that you kit weighs in at a pound point 67 ounces so is that 16.67 ounces or is 22.7 ounces because the how you stated it sounds like it could be either but I you mean 16.67 ounces if you could please clarify it would be greatly appreciated. On a side note is that you should not use metallic cooking utensils with Hard Anodized cookware or with the more conventional teflon non-stick surfaces additionally non-stick cooking surfaces should never be heated dry that is to say they should have either a little bit of oil in them or liquid of some sort and this includes when you are going to cook a foods like bacon or hamburger that will render off fat as they cook. While I have never used this cooking set I would ditch the plastic pan shields and in their place put a couple of paper towels or even cotton dish towels. I have a cooking set I put together and I use cotton towels as pan separators because besides protecting any non-stick it also helps to eliminate any cookware rattling when hiking additionally save the paper towels you use to wipe cooking fats and oils out of you pans when cooking and even ones you use to wipe your yap when eating and store them in a zip-top baggie they make great campfire starter. I also use the real nice dinner napkins when camping instead of paper towels because the store flat inside of a zip-top baggie and they double nicely as TP (the bonus about them one napkin can take care of you most all times and they are soft and smooth if you know what I mean Vern)
CharlieTango 1 If your referring to the aluminum plate that come in the cold weather kit. Yes they do come together.its part of their system.as can be seen on their web page. www.trangia.se/english/2917.trangia_accessories.html on a side note the plate was easily bent back to a decent shape.
The slight curvature of the baseplate... wow that looks like a defect to me. Very unusual for Trangia. I watched some video's on the Trangia website, and they are very specific the strap buckle should be on the side, just above the strap slot. I do not know why? If you or anyone can offer an explanation I would love to know. Anyhow, thank you for a great and informative video. Next two mouse clicks after comment will be Like and Sub. :)
CharlieTango 1 Originally I didn't think I wanted the kettle and it was just added weight. I bought the kettle as an after thought. As far as I know you still have to buy the other accessories individually so there is no big money savings on them and ya its pretty obvious that Trangia makes a kits that come with the kettle but its really no big savings.It just depends on the type of kit that you buy. If you have a small budget there are cheaper kits.
Nice review and all, but I think youre confusing non stick with Hard Anodised. Hard Anodised isnt non stick, its there to help stop scratches. Its actually worse for cooking on than the basic Aluminium version because it heats up slower (the coating reflects heat) and less evenly and uses more fuel but its very durable. The actual non stick version is good but delicate and scratches quite easy, but heats up faster than the other models and more evenly and you can cook without using any fat or oil and it cleans really easy even with cold river water. The basic aluminium is still good but is decidedly middle of the road. It needs oil to cook most things and scratches fairly easily but its pretty hard wearing in that it dosent have any sort of coating to lose like the other 2 and its usually far cheaper. I went with a basic hard anodised set in the 25 with a kettle and. Bought a non stick fry pan seperately. Thats the good thing about trangia, lots of cheap spares.
Thanks for your comment and opinion. But no I'm not confused. My Kit came with one nonstick pan and two hard anodized bowls and wind screen. After 5 years of use and hundreds of meals prepared either car camping or backpacking The pan's nonstick coating has held up great so far. The bowls are in great shape with no dents or scratches thanks to the anodized coating. While the hard anodized coating is not nonstick it does help with food sticking to the bowl .But I mainly cook sauces or gravy and rice in them. While the bowls might heat up slower than plain aluminum I have found them to heat up evenly. I have found the same thing to be true with my hard anodized GSI pots as well. Of all my cook kits this one gets used the most. I'm looking forward to many more years of use.
If the weather is so cold that you cannot light your stove because the fuel is too cold to light, then how is the cold weather attachment going to work? if it uses the same fuel that the stove uses? Don't get me wrong,I love the Trangia system but this seems like a pointless bullshit add-on for gadget geeks.
I would assume that you can light alcohol on a wick at lower temperatures than you can light a pool. It seems to be true for carbon felt wicked stoves I've used. I haven't seen the need to buy that either since I switch to carbon felt stoves at low temperatures for this reason.
I'm not sure what Trangia had in mind but I carry a small 1 ounce container of fuel in my pocket to keep it warm. That way I always have warm fuel for priming and my other fuel can be out in the open or where ever. FlashGeiger may be right as well. Thanks for watching!
+TomsBackwoods have you tried a rolled up piece of tissue placed like a wick into the fuel to light it in cold weather, works a treat here in the UK. Great vid
The strainer is a great accessory, very useful.
The best aspect of this cooker is that it is completely storm proof!
I've seen so many stupid boil tests on kitchen tables that don't mean a damn thing when you're cold, tired and hungry and your fancy propane stove keeps blowing out, or losing its heat, or worse still, tips over with a dinner ration you can't replace on the trail.

Sounds like a kit that you have to be in it win it. Once you commit to it, you gotta use it. Good showing of the possibilities!
A plastic IKEA placemat/thin craft cutting surface cut into a circle that fits into your frypan will protect your non-stick and give you a cutting board, too.
Great idea

Thanks very much, that was a really good introduction to the Trangia system.
Your welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hey Nick, Thanks for watching bro!! its a great backpacking kit for sure!
Haha! Thanks so much Tito! Teresa really Likes the kit to. Thanks for watching brother! Best wishes to you and yours! Tom
I have the 25-3 HA kit and love it... I did switch out the fry pan for a non-stick version.

Yep that's what I want to see. Looks like a great kit but for the money I want to see it work. Thanks for the review.
Back in the 80's, when I got my hard anodized Trangia cookset, the frypan AND pots were anodized, red on the outside, black on the inside.
Thats right
Hey Colin, Thanks for checking it out! Glad you liked it!
I love this set. The 27-3HA is a sexy setup. In no time you will love cooking on it.

Thank you for a great video. How much in total did you pay for all the items?
I think with all the options I show it was around $125. The basic kit being $103 I think. Thanks for watching! It is a great and versatile kit.

Thanks so much for watching!
Woo hoo! They’re bringing Duossal pots back! It’s official!

Great review!!
That top plate on the top does NOT come with the kit, they have just thrown that in because it is warped
CharlieTango 1 If your referring to the aluminum plate that come in the cold weather kit. Yes they do come together.its part of their system.as can be seen on their web page. www.trangia.se/english/2917.trangia_accessories.html
on a side note the plate was easily bent back to a decent shape.
PERFECT!!! Thanks 🙏🏻🇧🇷🌎😘
Msr quick skillet fits perfect on the 27
GREAT REVIEW BRO !!
The slight curvature of the baseplate... wow that looks like a defect to me. Very unusual for Trangia. I watched some video's on the Trangia website, and they are very specific the strap buckle should be on the side, just above the strap slot. I do not know why? If you or anyone can offer an explanation I would love to know. Anyhow, thank you for a great and informative video. Next two mouse clicks after comment will be Like and Sub. :)
I believe the buckle is placed on the side to avoid scratching the finish on the frying pan.
good review
Thanks buddy!

Thank you for sharing my friend
If you had bought the other set you would have had the kettle come with it, buying it that way you pay threw the nose as indivual items.
CharlieTango 1 Originally I didn't think I wanted the kettle and it was just added weight. I bought the kettle as an after thought. As far as I know you still have to buy the other accessories individually so there is no big money savings on them and ya its pretty obvious that Trangia makes a kits that come with the kettle but its really no big savings.It just depends on the type of kit that you buy. If you have a small budget there are cheaper kits.
cool review tom many thanks bud....colin.

Thanks for your FANTASTIC review. I'm going to get one. Subbed. God bless. John
You say "2 or more people". But if it's the 27-series, it's for 1-2 people.
I could cook for 3 people or several children easily with mine. I think its more of a suggestion than a rule but its up to you.
I'm just quoting their literature (Trangia's).
Nice review and all, but I think youre confusing non stick with Hard Anodised.
Hard Anodised isnt non stick, its there to help stop scratches.
Its actually worse for cooking on than the basic Aluminium version because it heats up slower (the coating reflects heat) and less evenly and uses more fuel but its very durable.
The actual non stick version is good but delicate and scratches quite easy, but heats up faster than the other models and more evenly and you can cook without using any fat or oil and it cleans really easy even with cold river water.
The basic aluminium is still good but is decidedly middle of the road.
It needs oil to cook most things and scratches fairly easily but its pretty hard wearing in that it dosent have any sort of coating to lose like the other 2 and its usually far cheaper.
I went with a basic hard anodised set in the 25 with a kettle and. Bought a non stick fry pan seperately.
Thats the good thing about trangia, lots of cheap spares.
Thanks for your comment and opinion. But no I'm not confused. My Kit came with one nonstick pan and two hard anodized bowls and wind screen. After 5 years of use and hundreds of meals prepared either car camping or backpacking The pan's nonstick coating has held up great so far. The bowls are in great shape with no dents or scratches thanks to the anodized coating. While the hard anodized coating is not nonstick it does help with food sticking to the bowl .But I mainly cook sauces or gravy and rice in them. While the bowls might heat up slower than plain aluminum I have found them to heat up evenly. I have found the same thing to be true with my hard anodized GSI pots as well. Of all my cook kits this one gets used the most. I'm looking forward to many more years of use.
i Have a Primus hard
Primus makes some great gear!

If the weather is so cold that you cannot light your stove because the fuel is too cold to light, then how is the cold weather attachment going to work? if it uses the same fuel that the stove uses? Don't get me wrong,I love the Trangia system but this seems like a pointless bullshit add-on for gadget geeks.
I would assume that you can light alcohol on a wick at lower temperatures than you can light a pool. It seems to be true for carbon felt wicked stoves I've used. I haven't seen the need to buy that either since I switch to carbon felt stoves at low temperatures for this reason.
I'm not sure what Trangia had in mind but I carry a small 1 ounce container of fuel in my pocket to keep it warm. That way I always have warm fuel for priming and my other fuel can be out in the open or where ever. FlashGeiger may be right as well. Thanks for watching!
+TomsBackwoods have you tried a rolled up piece of tissue placed like a wick into the fuel to light it in cold weather, works a treat here in the UK.
Great vid
+shauns1808 Thanks! I will give it a try!
