Our Trangia cooker

Posted by on 10. Dezember 2011

This piece of equipment was a hard choice – should we take it on our trip or not? The uncounted hot cups of coffee in the mornings and the delicious camping dinners have since proven that the cooker earned its space in my backpack.

I have an older version of the one pictured on the left. It weighs about 2.5 kg instead of the only 1kg of the ultralight newer model (according to Amazon), which is a lot considering my whole backpack weighs ‚only‘ 14kg. It’s a good cooker though, energy and space efficient, and it combines two pots, a kettle, a pan and a wind shield so you can use it in all weather conditions. While it stayed packed up throughout the whole of Asia, where food is just so cheap that it is not worth cooking yourself, we used it daily in New Zealand and Australia and it saved us „heaps of money“ – as the Aussie would say. It burns methylated spirits which in many countries are easier to find than those blue gas cartouches. And the good thing (and not the only one) about traveling as a team of two is that you only need one cooker. ;-)

Flattr this!
