First Meal on the Trangia
A friend of mine recently gave me a Trangia alcohol stove and a Clikstand stove stand. Very solid setup. And seeing as it was quite warm in the Tiny House yesterday we decided, well I decided, to boil up the quinoa on the Trangia stove outside. So I whipped out my Montbell titanium cook set and went about making my first meal on the Trangia. It boiled up and simmered 1 cup of quinoa and 3 cups of water quite well. Using about 1.5 ounces of alcohol by my guesstimation. As soon as the water came to a boil, I lifted off the pot and place the simmer ring on top of the stove with the swing lid all the way open, and it simmered perfectly. In conclusion I am very pleased with the Trangia stove. It will probably become my new go-to stove for any type of outdoor cooking. I like alcohol stoves, but I really like an alcohol stove that can simmer!
