Great idea to put the griddle plate on the hob to diffuse the heat for cooking food that needs to simmer on a low heat for a longer period of time. Thank you for sharing your experience. 😊
@@ASimplyFabLife Well, here it is :) We used the new gas braai on Valentines day, and the food was delicious. Also, I gained more than 500 views on my video! Totally stoked :) th-cam.com/users/shortsTB2QS6qN_Ks
Thanks for the great content and the cooking tipps at the end. I will definitly go for the cadac this year for my journey to scandinavia in 2023. Greetings from Germany
I love, love, love this cooker plate 🙏🏼😎 it has enabled some pretty delish meals every day for 7-months (so far). There have been 2 moments when it didn’t work: 1) ran out of gas in the bottle 🤪🤣 2) overzealous cleaning around the pit and water got in. After it dried out, no probs 😅
What gas bottles do you use? I’m going on a 2 week road trip and think this could be what I’m looking for. Bit nervous about choosing the right gas though. Last year’s trip we used a portable 1 ring stove and it failed on day 2… not very convenient when I came to morning teas and coffees! I want to pay more for a better product. Any clarity in the above would be greatly appreciated. Xx
Hi, agreed, tea in the morning is essential to set the day. We use the 13kg butane bottles (not sure if you're in Europe?). Of course, you can also use the smaller 3 kg ones, if easier in the campervan. As mentioned (in one of the videos) the swivel quick release is a major increase in ease of use (not included, but can be ordered separately). The piezo ignition is still going strong, so no worries there! Good luck and have a great trip! Cheers
Smart cooker, I hope the piezo will last a long time, they are usually the first thing to pack in. I specially like the hotplate and grill add ons, and as you remark for simmering, ideal!
I am looking at upgrading my Campinggaz chef double burner with grill. It is a nice bit of kit but it is terrible even in the slightest breeze. How does the Cadac perform in the wind? Have you any experience of using it when it is windy?
Yeah, we did have some issues with wind with this one. It won't blow the flame out but you lose a lot of heat in the process 😬. We were constantly building wind breaks (chopping boards etc) and I feel they missed a trick by omitting these... The flames are quite exposed
@@ASimplyFabLife ahh, all sounds similar then. I did think of fabricating a folding windshield out of aluminium with some piano hinges riveted on, but hoped that Cadac may have offered a better design solution. At least you say it doesn't blow out. That's a step up at least. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
@@Hix-Design I thought of the same thing! We also leaned the hot plates against the sides as a wind break - so there's that... Piezo unfaltering though 👍
@@ASimplyFabLife yeah, I've tried all manner of impromptu windbreaks. It's a shake that they don't think of this when they design things. At least they have a robust piezo. I think I may get one as they do seem a bit better than the Cg version. The hotplate for simmering is a bonus for low and slow cooking.
👍it's been a year now. Still going strong - incl. the piezo - with dozens of uses every day - kettles boiled, breakfast, dinner, toast etc. Don't forget the quick-release gas connector if you need to store it away separately (can get it from cadaceurope)

Just bought mine, can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for a very informative video!
Happy to hear!👍☺ Enjoy!
Glad the video was helpful (can confirm it works well at zero degrees C as well😅).

Had mine 12months, like yours works 1st time every time, sometimes your better off paying a bit more.
Hi there. I can't seem to find the blue adapter that you used...the clip in? Any idea where I can purchase it?
I got it from cadaceurope.com - 'Quick Release Rotating' SKU 338-2 👍

Hi! Is the quick disconnect pipe included or something you purchase separately?
The quick disconnect is purchased separately. You can find it on the cadac site 👍
