With the ideal capacity for cooking for 1 person, this titanium pot is very lightweight, strong, and highly durable. The silicone-coated handles fold for compact storage, it features volume markings, and it comes with a lid to improve heat efficiency.
This lightweight pot for hiking is made in Tokyo, Japan by Evernew, and it’s ideal for hikers who only need to boil water for freeze-dried meals, soups, or things like coffee or tea.
When to Use It
For many hikers, a 600ml pot is quite a good and preferred choice. Though no one seems able to figure out for sure what the ideal size is: 600ml or 900ml. It depends on whether you cook just for yourself or for two people. Also, whether you eat dehydrated meals, cooked food, or just use it to make hot chocolate.
But whatever use you give it, you have the option to choose between two capacities. The 600ml pot is for those who usually hike solo, and the 900ml pot for those who hike with a companion. The quality is the same, you just need to think about which one suits you best.
Design
The handles fold for compact storage. Both the lid grip and the handle are covered with silicone, insulating you from the heat. It also has volume lines inside that allow you to measure the exact amount of water. Lastly, it has a pour spout, which is a great feature.
This lightweight hiking pot is shorter and wider than other models, which increases the surface area exposed to the flame. This means it can concentrate more heat at the base, heating faster and saving a bit of fuel. It’s also more stable on a stove or support 🙂
Titanium is an extremely lightweight and strong metal. It doesn’t rust or corrode with moisture, so it has high durability. Titanium in its purest form is not commonly used commercially; it’s often mixed with other metals to create alloys, lowering the price and improving performance. Learn more here.
To differentiate the quality of each titanium alloy, they are divided into Grades, regulated by an international organization called ASTM. Evernew uses a Grade 1 and 2 titanium alloy with a thickness of only 3mm, which is considered the purest commercially available titanium, with over 99% purity.
