I took a dislike to propane stoves after seeing so many tanks discarded by the trailside. I also don't like the idea that much of what you are buying is compression--you can use a Steva or single-burner Coleman and pump it up yourself. As for the hobo stove, hoboes call that a twig stove; it is made for smaller pieces. When you cut out the door, fold the panel down to form a feed tray. And for God's sake, put a lid on your pots.

Loved this video! Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks!

[@LiveAndLetBike]

Nice video. I agree gas stove still better but still a backup method. I will gradually work through your hoboclub playlist!

[@hobocyclist]

Cheers! Yes the hobo stove works for me in a pinch, or for fun - thats about the best way to use one

[@macanalista]

Putting the lid on it would help loads.

[@tourisew7513]

I did that on a bike trip before, the bad thing is you need to keep applying wood into the fire and it cooks slow, now I carry a home-made alcohol stove on the trip as back up, I hate using gas canisters.

[@peterbedford2610]

Just used my Primus yesterday. Thanks for this info

[@jonathanjones5282]

Nice try,but I stick to my little gas stove, easier, great video as always

sweetened condensed milk is a good choice because the cans are designed so you can boil them to make caramel in them.

[@cebruthius]

This hobo stove looks a bit oxygen starved. It'd be beter to raise the fire and add draft holes around the bottom.

[@medusaman1]

You are right. There should be a gap between the stove and the pot for the flames to go up round the pot.

Why screw around with pressurized gas when you can get a smaller more powerful, lighter weight stove that that has been around since 1960, the Seva 123 with a build in fuel tank. It uses white gas or the slightly larger and Optimus 00 that the whisperlite is based on, but far better than the whisperlite. What a scam to see so many people get sucked into the propane stoves. We as a culture need to get over the idea that the newest, great idea is not always the best idea as well as the throw away mentality. I'm still going out and about using the same stoves I bought new in 1969. The only upkeep has been to replace the rubber gasket on the fuel tank in 2024. For 25 years I was wilderness out fitter and these are two of the stoves we used in the business and have seen heavy service.

I switched to a MSR Dragonfly, runs on almost any fuel, a litre of gas is under $2 and last 10 days.
