Spirit stove – reliable stove for moderate temperatures
If you want to cook a tasty outdoor meal quickly and easily in the wilderness, a spirit stove is a good choice. Spirit is available in almost every supermarket worldwide and is inexpensive, so you don't have to worry too much about fuel and your travel budget.
How does a spirit stove work?
A spirit stove is very simple to use: you fill the burner with fuel, which is available almost everywhere at low cost, light the burner, place a pot on the stove, and you're ready to start cooking outdoors.
Design and accessories
The spirit stove has a few special features. A good spirit stove can therefore be recognized by these characteristics:
- The special thing about the spirit stove is its compact design, which means it can be stored in your backpack without taking up too much space, only to be whipped out later as a practical outdoor cooking facility – ideal for multi-day trips with limited luggage.
- Most spirit stoves are also equipped with a windshield, so that they can always provide you with a hot flame in wind and weather, the temperature of which can usually be easily regulated via the cover cap.
- Some spirit stoves are available in sets with various cookware, pots, and pans, and sometimes with other utensils such as cutting boards or pasta strainers.
The only disadvantage is that its calorific value is significantly lower than that of a gasoline or gas stove. As a result, it takes a little longer for your next outdoor meal to be ready. But who cares, as long as it tastes good.
Spirit stoves at Transa
Trangia spirit stoves are among the most popular stoves in the outdoor scene. The Swedish manufacturer has equipped its spirit stoves with nozzles so that the spirit can escape in gaseous form. In addition, all Trangia spirit stoves are equipped with a cylindrical windshield. Almost all of these stoves are also available in practical sets with one or more pots and pans. When not in use, stoves, pots, and burners can be conveniently stacked inside each other so that they can be packed away in your camper van or hiking backpack to save space after cooking. Of course, you can also find these well-designed spirit stoves from the Swedish wilderness in the Transa online shop.
If you're a gourmet who wants to whip up a three-course meal outdoors on the spur of the moment, we recommend the Trangia spirit stove sets, which include two pots and a frying pan, as well as a universal handle that can be quickly attached and a windshield that also functions as a transport box for the accompanying utensils. This means you always have a complete small camping kitchen with you when you're on the go, and it doesn't weigh much either.
Storm cooker: Fire and flame despite rain and wind
The so-called storm cooker is another special type of spirit stove. Its special feature is its unique design. In a storm cooker, the stove and flame are enclosed by a kettle that functions like a chimney. The kettle completely encloses the burner and flame, thus serving as an effective windbreak. As its name suggests, the storm cooker proves to be extremely practical, especially in windy and rainy regions. Wind and moisture cannot affect the flame in the kettle. In addition, hardly any heat is lost from the sides. The heat rises through the kettle to where the pan or pot is safely positioned. A storm-proof stove also has an adjustable control lid on the side of the windshield, which you can use to regulate the flame.
