ive recently bought myself a little Kovea gas cooker and put a 450gm bottle under it. Before i go heading off into any wilderness, i want to know how long it will last.
I have been doing some tests in "the laboratory" (AKA the kitchen of which SWMBO isnt too impressed) but as we all know, bench tests differ considerably from those in the field. i have been boiling my tin mug (ex army) on it everytime i make a cuppa and it doesnt seem to be getting near empty. Been keeping a tally of "cups boiled" and 'time used'
Anyone have any idea? Also, is it better to carry a single 450gm bottle or 2x 225gm ones? i figure smaller ones would be easier to pack plus is i lost one, still got another. Make sense or not? Also, if anyone has any suggestions, pitfalls and 'beware ofs" i'd be most grateful.
