This gorgeous stove dates from the 1930s. It once belonged to the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department. Everyone we've consulted about the origin of this stove says it's probably a custom piece, since no one has seen anything like it. When we bought it, it was completely intact down to the shakers, for salt, pepper, flour and sugar. That's a mirror under the light. This appliance has also been reconditioned to function like brand new. It has six burners, a griddle, and a separate oven and broiler. This is one of my most prized posessions, as you may be able to tell!

Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site
Hopewell’s cast iron stoves had earned nationwide fame for its outstanding quality and aesthetics. Looking at real samples of them, I thought they truly represented a high level of craftsmanship.

Just spending this snowy sunday morning cleaning and maintaining my cookwear. With everything being all shiny now, I trought I would snap a few photos.
As some of you will know, I have worked in outdoor stores for a bit over three years now. I have a habit of buying stuff, in order to take it home and test it myself - imho. the only real way to be able to say anything qualified about a product.
These stoves are, for the most part, the "keepers"; the ones I have decided to keep after playing around with them for a while. Those I do not keep are usually given away - or, if they are free samples, returned to the supplier or binned.
From Left to Right:
Trangia Mini 28T - cheap little stove, not as effective as a 27 or 25. But, perfect for a quick brew or heating water for a boil-in-bag meal. Packs small, weighs a mere 330g.
Of all my stoves, the Trangia Mini is the one I carry and use the most - either as my main stove on short trips or as a back-up stove on longer trips.
Imho. this stove is a highly overlooked one, which should be in the kit of any outdoorsman.
I have never used the small teflon frying pan for anything other than a lid btw.
I use mine with a cheap MSR foil windscreen, held together with a large paper clip.
Tatonka Multiset. A good Trangia 25 copy, in many ways better than a genuine Trangia. The burner, pots, pan and optional kettle (called the H2O pot by Tatonka) are all 18/8 stainless steel, making them a lot more sturdy than the Trangia aluminium pots - aswell as much more versatile, corrosion- and heat resistant. Heavier than a Trangia, but if you have decided to carry a full size Trangia in the first place, weight is not your main concern I guess.
Trangia Triangle. Small colapsable stand for a Trangia burner. I am still testing this one. So far I like it, though I would like it to be able to take smaller pots, than the diameter of the pot stands allow. This is a lightweight piece of gear (115g), not something I would carry around with a large pot.
A nice way to use the Triangle, is to carry it in your Trangia 25, together with an extra burner. This way you have the option of having two pots on at the same time. In order to do that, you will have to leave your kettle at home though.
Trangia 25 UL/HA w. the frying pan exchanged with a teflon one. The classic full size Trangia 25, with a teflon pan, hardanodized pots and a multidisc. Not much to say here; not too heavy, easy to use, sturdy, stabile... Well; it's a Trangia :)
This is the set I break out when I know I will be doing some serious cooking when out and about.
Trangia 0,5L fuel flask. Imho. the only way to carry meths in the field. The flask is stroger than the classic aluminium fuel bottle - and the ingenius safety valve makes it both easy and very safe to pour from.
(NOT MY PHOTO). This mod is worth looking at for a possible secondary air supply for a rocket stove mass heater. Interesting mod, for sure.
Taken at the Barney Ford House and Museum in Breckenridge, Colorado. This ornate stove was located in the kitchen and was used to warm up an iron, which is visible near the bottom of the stove. Barney Ford started life as a slave, freed himself by walking off a ship in New York Harbor, and became a successful businessman in the west. The museum was his house in Breckenridge where he was prominent in the business community in the 1880's.

The principle is to create a double skin allowing secondary combustion through the top vents. Ingredients: one big can of tomato soup (800g) and one smaller can of sweet corn to create the double chamber and inner firebox. 8-10 mins for rolling boil.

Model No. 96L
My original Primus stove, which saw many years use when camping and backpacking.
Being made mainly of brass, the Primus stove was heavy and cumbersome compared to today’s portable LPG stoves, but it was fun to use. Starting it up was a bit of a ritual if all you wanted was to boil some water for a cup of coffee, but there was the joy of pouring a small amount of methylated spirit into the spirit cup to prime it, lighting the meth then watching and waiting for it to almost burn away before pressurising the tank with the built-in pump. This caused the paraffin to rise through a preheating and vaporising tube before being forced under pressure to the actual burner where it would mix with air and then ignite into a very hot and powerful blue flame. The flame’s intensity is adjusted by pumping more air into the tank to make it larger, or releasing air by means of a small air screw located on the filler cap to make it smaller (e.g. when simmering). It all sounds very complicated compared to modern LPG stoves, which you simply turn on and light, but it was one of those things that contributed to the joy of camping.
My Primus stove always brought back memories of when I was a child during the 1950s, camping with my parents at Humberston near Cleethorpes. In those days, it seemed everyone cooked on a traditional Primus stove when camping, and intermingled with the pervading aroma of breakfasts cooking all across the campsite was the occasional whiff of methylated spirit and burning paraffin from someone just starting up their stove. I still keep my old Primus out of pure nostalgia, but it has recently been replaced with a LPG stove.
Primus Stove
Developed in 1892 by Frans Wilhelm Lindqvist and Johan Viktor Svenson, the Primus stove was the world’s first portable pressurized-burner paraffin stove and was made in Stockholm, Sweden. The first units were sold mainly to women who operated street market shops in Stockholm, but the stove’s reputation for efficiency and reliability soon earned it its place in the history books when famed and intrepid explorers chose it to take on their expeditions.
It was the stove of choice for these spirited adventurers:
* Fridtjof Nansen's 1893 unsuccessful North Pole attempt.
* Salomon August Andrée’s 1897 North Pole expedition.
* Roald Amundsen’s expedition to the South Pole in 1911.
* George Mallory's ill-fated expedition to Mount Everest in 1924.
* First successful ascent of Mount Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and
` Tenzing Norgay in 1953.
And then there was me!

I have taken a liking to this type of stove lately, especially when I am camping out during the cold seasons.
From left to right:
Optimus NOVA+ A quite new addition to my collection, but one I know will be a keeper. It is not the most effective - nor the hottest burning - multifuel burner out there. But it pack small and is fairly lighweight - without compromising stability and ruggedness of the burner.
The NOVA+ burns white gas (which I mostly use), kerosene, unleaded gasoline and diesel.
I spend quite a lot of time researching before deciding upon the NOVA+ - the only real runner-up was the Primus OmniFuel.
Optimus Svea 123R (also known as the Svea hunter/climber). Again; a fairly new acquisition. This little stove - which is the oldest camping stove still in production btw. - is best described by my favourite nickname for it; The Little Stove that Could!
There are definitly lighter, faster, hotter burning, quieter, more fuel effective, cheaper, easier, etc. gasoline stoves out here - but none with the sheer charm, compactness, ruggedness and stability of the Svea 123R!
The Svea 123R is an old time favourite of mountaineers, needing a small and compact stove, campable of functioning at high altitides, in strong winds and at low temperatures.
The stove is a self pressurising stove, taking a bit more practice to prime properly. Though; I managed to get mine running, at around 5 deg. C, the first time I tried it.
This stove will be a serious competitor to my Trangia Mini 28T in the coming season.
Providus+ Multifuel burner. This fairly cheap Italian made multifuel burner, given to me as a sample by one of our suppliers. This burner has been a somewhat mixed expereince for me.
The pump is a copy of the old Optimus NOVA pump, the burner is copied from the MSR Whisperlite and the legs look and function very much like the ones on the Primus OmniFuel.
I have, though, four gripes with this burner:
1. The Providus + is maybe a tad less fuel efficient than most of the bigger brands. On all other accounts is is a really good burner, capable of burning white gas, kerosene, unleaded gasoline, diesel and butane cartridges - depending on which of the two supplied jets you have installed.
2. The cap on the fuel bottle is not gasoline resistant. The bottom half of the threading of the cap is eaten up by white gas stored in the bottle. That is simply not good enough - and potentially very dangerous!
3. In order to clean the jets you have to take the burner apart, most other burners on the market has smart ways of cleaning the jets without having to take the burner apart.
4. The burner comes with no real instructions or users manual at all. Considering that is multifuel burner takes some skill and practice to operate - and can be dangerous if not operated correctly - this is quite a big issue.
The burner is actually quiter and lighter than my Optimus NOVA+ But, compared side by side, there is no doubt that the NOVA+ will outlast the Providus+ for decades. The Providus+ is not less sturdy than the MSR Whisperlite (actually the Providus+' all metal pump should be a lot more stabile than the plastic one of the Whisperlite), but compared to any Optimus or Primus multifuel burner, the Providus+ falls short in materials, and build quality.
