    OK so I know this might not be something that every camper ponders but this was in fact very informative and helpful! I recently had the same dilemma, I wanted something small and practical I could carry some simple spices in so I started the quest as well. I eventually went with the same thing, the MSR Salt and Pepper shaker! It's great, loved it, one small issue was that the holes were too small for some of the other spices I wanted to bring. I love Roasted Garlic and Red Pepper blend of spice, I put that schit on everything. But the holes were way too small. Here is where this video helped! I did not know they also made the "Spice" shaker with bigger holes! OK So I ordered it, have not gotten it yet so I can't testify that it will be good for my particular spice but judging from this video, it looks promising, at least better than any other option I have found.
    Thank you Milo for a great video, I have subscribed to your channel!

    Great looking shakers, but I just find a small container that holds salt and pepper sachets that you can 'liberate' from fast food restaurants works just as well.

    • @milotash

      I do appreciate a great fast food liberation moment. I can respect the heck out of that, Chris.

    Thank you Milo! I just bought the single MSR spice shaker but now I think I’ll return it for the dual… have to have my red or black pepper and salt in the back country!

      Honestly both are superb. Whichever one you go with I hope you have great adventures with it!

    Now I have spent a camping life time searching for the perfect camping spice container…. I kid you not…
    Man alive there are a fortune over here….£20 for one including delivery…. I would want them to come shake the salt on my food for that..🤣🤣

      The grass is always greener on the other side of the pond. And apparently they want a lot of green to get something over it. Sorry my friend. ☹️

    Thanks for the videos. I have been watching and enjoying them.
    I wouldn't have thought there was all that much to something like a spice shaker for camping. I was just going to go with Coghlan's salt & pepper shakers off of Amazon (or Walmart if I saw them there). I will try both and see which one I like better.
    Again, thanks.

    • @andrewvautour1795
      @andrewvautour1795 Před rokem

      I had the Coghlan shaker as well as the GSI (the worst). The Coghlan was very similar to the GSI in that the tops cracked after very little time. I then got the Outbound shaker which I liked but I lost the dam thing and when I went to get a new one, MEC was not selling them anymore and I didn't see anything there I liked so I ordered the MSR from Amazon and (see above review) I am happy with them ;)

  • @bryanjohnfields
    @bryanjohnfields Před rokem +7

    Loved the video. Ummm… I may have just ordered a set of shakers to go in my camp kit. They’ll go nice with my Snow Peak cutlery, spatula, and mug.

    • @milotash

      About time you got some variety in your gear load out, Bryan. Pshh, we can't expect Snow Peak to carry all the weight.😉

    I have that double compartment shaker, it's really neat, however, despite having grains of rice inside (to absorb moisture) the dispensing holes get dirty with spice (more with salt than pepper) and opening them with one finger becomes impossible, I often end up holding it with both hands (one hand presses the lid, so it doesn't fall off) and open it on something I have around, like a table top. It jams really, really badly. Other than that it's really great.

    • @milotash
      @milotash  Před 10 měsíci

      Ufda, I’m sorry you’re getting some humidity issues with the shaker! I feel you when it becomes a harder open. I’ve also used the table top for opening it when it gets a bit harder to open. That or you have to have a thick nail which I’ve never been brave though to open even my pop cans with a nail only. Nice perspective and thanks for the comment!

    I favor a single plastic empty spice container. Inside, I've formulated an all purpose seasoning. Think homemade creole with my own twist. Works great on meats, soups, veggies. I control the salt percentage, as opposed to buying a creole seasoning. Salt, pepper, garlic, onion, cumin, rosemary, paprika powders as a base. Cayenne as needed. I get very few comaints.

  • @AnimusZen
    @AnimusZen Před 8 měsíci +2

    Thanks for the break down. I agree with all of your assessments here. Your Bio says you're a crafter, so why not design the multi-spice kit everyone is looking for?

      I love the cinnamon add! I forget how essential that one is especially whilst camping for morning meals!
      You’re right on the nose, I am back in school earning my MS in product design so there’s a very high chance this will actually get redesigned as a fun project in the future!

    I have the Wildo spice shaker. It has 3 compartments, a very hard to remove refill lid xD, and can "leak" some spices if it's something super finely ground, but overall I like it! It has no rubber so nothing to go bad in that regard.. Aaand of course it's orange so it fits with all my other orange items

  • @johngayley2588
    @johngayley2588 Před rokem +1

    I try to keep it as simple as possible.... so I bring salt, pepper,season all, garlic, onion. The msr shakers are better than the GSI ones because the latter would get hard and 1 solid piece over time.

    • @milotash

      Can’t beat a baggie, Sultan. That being said, I do love the rodent proof aspect to these especially when camping in areas in my neck of the woods. Cheers!

    Every bit of GSI I’ve had has failed. The MSR look really cool but the lids look like a weak point. I use Nalgene bottles and jars for everything from cleaning to cooking stuff. I’ve never had a failure or leak and they are only a couple of bucks. They’re nothing fancy just well made and tough.

    • @milotash
      @milotash  Před rokem +1

      The Nalgene screw tops are consistent and seem to carry their own very well, I agree. I've had a few that do the job for small instant coffee / Dandy Blend canisters that are the size of a Tic Tac box that I love. Can't complain one bit. Thanks for sharing Warwick.
