Which Ti Pot?

Hi Vince,

I really like my Evernew 1.3 liter ultra light pot, it weighs just 4.6 ounces, and has a wide 5 1/2 inch profile that works well with my pepsi style alcohol stove. I think Evernew makes a 2 liter pot, just check out their website. Good luck!

It sounds like somebody has been reading a little Ray Jardine :)

+1 on the Evernew Ultralight pots if you can find one. I have the .9L and .6L. Very nice pots.

I have looked at the Evernew pots but they are out of stock at all the online stores I looked at and they also don't come in a 2.0 liter or 1.9 liter size which would be very helpful because I will be cooking for two. Does anyone have experience with the Snow Peak Cook N' Save? Ya, I have been reading a lot of Ray's stuff it has changed the way I look at backpacking. Thanks for all the input.

Not titanium but I would recommend the antigravitygear 2 liter pot of anodized aluminum. It's lighter than any titanium pot in the 2 liter size.

The Snow Peak 2 liter pot is also nice. Discard the plastic lid and you're good to go.

Montbell has a pretty light 1.8 liter pot with a lid that can be used as a pan.

+1 on the Anti Gravity Gear 2L.

I bought both the 3 cup and 2 quart non-stick AGG pots for about 17USD from Amazon. They are made by Open Country in the US and are really nice quality and very lightweight at a fantastic price. I haven't seen the anodized but I am sure it is just as well-made and a great value. The lids are very substantial and could be replaced with foil for a nice reduction in weight. Unfortunately I don't have my scale to check right now.

I don't know if they have the no non stick pots, but all the REI TiWare is just Evernew with REI printed on it. I use the 1.3 liter and it works great for me. It holds two of the sea to summit x bowls, folding sporks, and some spices with room to spare when it's in the pack. Plus it works nice with either my wifes pocket rocket stove, or my whisperlite international. I don't think I'd do anything other than boil water with the pocket rocket though.

I like non-coated so I can just was it out with a bit of water and dirt/sand. MSR 2L, Snow Peak 1400 are both favorites of mine.

HAA pots with a non-stick coating are superior to Ti with the same. All in how they handle the heat and spread. You will toast the coating on a Ti pot much too quickly!! Ti pots are great water boilers, not so great for cooking.

But let me add that the Vargo Boiler is a nice pot set – but you will need to baby it for actual cooking (as in not ignoring it and using liberal oil!)

What Daniel said, a 2 liter hard anodized aluminum pot is lighter AND cheaper AND distributes heat better than a Ti pot.

For the life of me I can't see the fascination with TI pots & mugs.

BTW, anyone want an Evernew Ti skillet – cheap? That's the cookware that turned me off on Ti.
