As I look at my gear and try to get things thinned down, I can't escape the fact that the Caldera Keg system weighs about the same as my Ti pot alone.
My strong personal preference is for cooking in and eating from the pot… I really dislike cooking/eating from bags. So the question is, have any of you used the Heinie or Fosters "pot" to "cook" in (add food to boiling water to rehydrate & eat from)? Pain in the rear, or success story?
Thanks!
If you like hot food that doesn't cook in a bag, than a Heiny pot is probably not for you. Unless you eat like a bird, or don't mind cooking in several smaller portions.
I guess I was thinking that I cook meals in a 900 ml pot with a little room to spare, so I could probably just about pull off the 750 ml "pot" size of the Heinie can? But the can seems like it could be a pain to eat out of, potentially a pain to clean…
I use the Heinie pot and I have no problems with it whatsoever. However, all the meals I eat cook in the bag, so I have no experience with eating out of the Heinie pot. If you have a long enough utensil though, I don't see it being a problem. The Snowpeak Titanium Spork with it's long handle should work well.
I just absolutely hated eating from a Foster's can. Haven't tried a keg, but wouldn't it be a witch to clean? You could use a beer can and a foldable bowl, like an Orikasa, and still be lighter than most titanium pots…that is if you want to drink out of a beer can.
