Hi.
I was wondering if anyone has any tips about how to best insulate those collapseable handles you find on the side of titanium or stainless steel mugs.
I'm ditching my cookset and will just be using my 16oz mug to boil water. But the handles get too hot, and I don't want to bring a pot-holder (as it defeats the purpose).
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Tim.

It seems that this is a perennial issue :)
