  • Get my full review of the Jetboil MiniMo and find out if it is the best Jetboil on the market. We compare the Jetboil MiniMo to the MicroMo, SuMo, and Flash. I will give you the reasons why I think the MiniMo is the most versatile and reliable Jetboil stove.

    I thought the MicroMo was going to be the best fit for me, but after using the wide mouth of the MiniMo, I am sold! It is great to eat out of plus the wideness makes it easy to clean up. And since I give guided hikes, it is better to have the extra .2L of volume for efficiency. Let me know what do you think?

      Question. Does the Pan Stand fit in the plastic measuring pot in the bottom and, if so would that damage the heat fins?

    Thank you so much for this video! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that you mentioned not to light with the cup attached. I am sorry to hear about the experience you had with the MicroMo and I will be noting this for our quality team to review.

      My pleasure, I have had great success with Jetboil products. The lid on the MicroMo was a bit disappointing, I really liked the small size. But now using the MiniMo more, it was a blessing in disguise. I LOVE the stout size and the solid handles. I will be doing a review on the Jetboil 1.5L Ceramic Pot. It is the best pot solution for my MSR Whisperlite that I switch to for winters. Thanks for noticing my channel!

    Everyone should pay particular attention to the wire of the ignitor. It is easy to bump when taking on/off the pot. You always want the wire at a 45 degree angle. If that wire gets bumped closer or farther from the burner (even though you can see a spark) it will not light properly. If you notice hard lighting, look at the wire position. I picked up a Flash at REI for $65 as a return because the customer stated, "Does not light consistently." I bent the wire to 45 degrees and she lights every time.

    • @OutsideChronicles
      @OutsideChronicles  Před 2 lety

      Good suggestion, the ignitor is a great feature, but it does need to be adjusted from time to time to work effectively.

    I am so glad you mentioned that it does not pack down completely. It is a key consideration to make as backpack space is always something to think about. I watched several other videos before yours and non of them ever mentioned it.. I love that you even went one step further and took the time to show us the two different (and one unconventional but very handy!) configurations you can pack the MINIMO in. This makes it so much easier for me to fully consider the pros and cons of this stove system!

    I have been using the sumo without complaints for years. Conveniently fits everything. If I needed a smaller footprint the MiniMo looks like a great option. I bring a titanium bowl/plate rather than eating out of the pot. Additional stove option just in case. Enjoying a nice meal on the trail is one of the best parts of the experience.

    I like to use the bottom plastic cup for carrying the pot around camp after using it to make coffee, makes it sit flatter on the the ground or table, etc. and protects the metal fins. by the time the bottom of the pot is cool enough to twist the burner off the plastic cup can go on without getting melted. You can also fit a bit bic lighter in the bottom cup (inside the metal part of the pot) as a back up for when the igniter goes out, also pack a few napkins or spice packets, etc in there.

    Great video - thanks! I saw the video you mentioned where they were able to pack everything into the pot, and I think the key is the fuel cannister, it looks like they were using a cannister from Decathlon in Europe which seems to be very slightly smaller than the Jetboil ones... I guess this minor difference allows the lid to close. I will try this out as I use the Decathlon cannisters.

    Thanks for this look at the MiniMo. I bought one a few days ago online, Jetboil was having a sale. I have two of the MSR Reactor series set ups, like the Mo series I use one burner for the two units but I wanted the smaller size and a coffee press. I don’t like the height of the other MSR of JetBoil units so I’m going to give the MiniMo a shot.
    I’ll have to figure a system to keep the parts and canister together, probably a waxed canvas bag with a draw cord.

I have a couple of friends who both have the flash model but I wanted something more controllable for cooking. I too considered a large titanium cup and a mini stove but I was impressed with what I had seen of the jetboil and the weight isn't my main concern. It's a shame they didn't think to make the pot ½" bigger so the pan top fits in too but as you say if you are bringing other pans it can pack with them.

  • @neologian1783
    @neologian1783 Před 2 lety

    I probably own 7-8 different stoves and choose between them depending on the trip and which is best suited for the adventure. Over the years I've acquired everything from ultra-lightweight minimalist "debris" stoves, to Trangia alcohol burners, liquid fuel MSR Whisperlite, and the MSR Pocket Rocket cannister stove, and even traditional Coleman two burner for car camping. I've used the Flash for many years and have to say I positively LOVE that stove. It's not perfect for every adventure and really really really wants to scorch food.....but I reach for that stove far more often than all the others......particularly when I know the main plan is rehydrating backpacking food and making coffee with the french press in the mornings. It's been everywhere with me from the Sierra Nevada in Nor. Cal. to the deserts of the Southwest....over to Iceland, back through the Whites in New England, and up through the Canadian Rockies. But as I said...it's a water boiler and not a "cooking" stove.
    Anyone have additional experience with the regulated burners on the "Mo" system? Can you really "cook" on them as advertised or in reality are they single-hot-spot scorchers as well?

    • @OutsideChronicles

      I love the idea of the efficiency/fast boil of the Jetboil system but with a regulated burner because I actually do like to "cook" and not just make coffee and rehydrate pre-packaged foods which are often WAY too sodium loaded for my tastes. There's also the "low spoon angle" feature on the MiniMo pot which doesn't seem like a big deal but small conveniences can add up. I got some Amazon gift cards for Christmas and think you just made up my mind!
      I like to backpack but my wife and I did Iceland by camper van for 18 days awhile back and she positively fell in love with the van. The van was "base camp" and we did the entire Ring Road plus some longer hikes up in the interior volcanic "highlands" and loved every second. So we've been scheming on how to do a van build of our own with some savings we have set aside. In my mind we won't do a built in stove but instead we'd equip the van with the Jetboil Base Camp system that way we can cook in van or out as conditions permit.
      Anyway...it was a really good and comprehensive review. Love the channel. Keep up the good work!!

      I love the MiniMo and am glad I swapped out the MicroMo. Yes, I think you could nest everything in the MiniMo using a Ranger Band. It just barely does not fit. I have not tried it, but will if I need to nest it in the future. Thanks for the comment and watching!

    • @OutsideChronicles
      @OutsideChronicles  Před 2 lety +1

      I did not really say it in the video. I will still use the pocket rocket+titanium pot when I want to go fast and light. I really like the speed of the Jetboil. It does not seem like a hue difference, but I was using my PocketRocket for a week+ trip on the Allagash River. My friends were eating and enjoying hot beverages while I was waiting. I did not do an analysis, but I am sure I used much more fuel too. BUT, I did not like my friend's Jetboil's b/c they were unregulated. I prepared many of my meals for variety and could not do this in the unregulated burner. So I think it is a balance between weight and versatility.

      The issue you are describing is what can happens if you ignite the flame with the pot on top. JetBoil says to only light when the pot is off the burner. When you light with the pot on top, the flames can puff around and melt the plastic housing and the neoprene cover on the pot.

It cooks fast and quick, cleans easy so I can then make a cup of coffee (which I pour into a small insulated drinking cup for on-the-go) as an option is the coffee press. Quick to cook, easier to clean than the narrower ones are, easy to put up. I have no issue with keeping my fuel canister separate in my pack. Great product.

      The reason why I'm asking is because I already have a minimo but I prefer the size of micromo for solo travel.. I don't want to buy a Micromo. So the solution I'm thinking is to get a spare 0.8L cup or a 0.8L zip. Then I can use the fine control micromo burner with it, and turn it into a micromo

    • @OutsideChronicles
      @OutsideChronicles  Před rokem

      Yes, ironically it all nests vertically in the zip. The zip is the same cup as the MicroMo. I actually started with that model but did not like the lid. It falls off when you pour. The .8 fits the canister, burner and pot stand. That is the part of the MiniMo that irks me. Otherwise, I absolutely love it.

Having seen more and more of Chef Corso's videos I do see the benefit of the jetboil all in one.
