Toaks Light 550 works great with a cone
I’ve been using the light version of the Toaks 550 for a few years now and it has served me well as the center of my alcohol cook kit. The lid is a little heavy so I replaced it, but the pot itself is excellent. One thing I like about it is when used in a cone system, the rim of the pot does not get so hot that I can’t drink out of it. It’s about the right size for re-hydrating most meals and also is about the right size for my coffee. I have a small 450 and a larger 750 and always return to the 550 as the perfect size for me.
