At long last I got to try the JetBoil system I got for Christmas - this morning I served hot Chocolate to a group of tired Explorers (see more about this elsewhere), and decided to just bring milk and chocolate instead of making it at home and bringing it in flasks.

And the JetBoil worked perfectly - it heated litres of milk quicker than the Explorers consumed it.

So I would really recommend this extremely compact cooking system (the gas canister and the burner unit unscrews from the “cup” (and can be stored inside it), and is really easily transported.

I just discovered that they make a bigger “pot” (1.5 litres as opposed to the 1 litre I have) as well - good if you want something more than soup/drinks, which uses the same burner and gas canisters.
