- Thanks for clicking on my vid. In this episode, I made a delicious breakfast on the Kelly Kettle. Forgot my hobo and pot stand so have to improvise with sticks and tent pegs.
Hope you like this little video, stay tuned for more.

Great video, I’m new to owning a Kelly Kettle I got from a friend (older model) and so far I’m loving using it, I’m usually a Trangia kinda guy, but the Kelly Kettle comes a close second for me. I look forward to seeing more of your adventures, all the best, Brian.
Thanks Brian, yes I’m a massive Trangia fan. I did a vid with the KK and trangia burner, a test that worked really well. Thanks for watching.
@@MSIOutdoors I’ll have to go and watch that video, I’m currently watching your most recent video at the moment, good stuff ☺️👍🏻
KK's are bulky and a real pack filler, but I've found that using the stuff sack they come with to hold your food, or other equipment - and then stuffing that into the void of the KK saves a ton of room. I just use a strap to hold the base to the kettle for transport. Works for me.
I used to do that, but kept getting my other bits dirty from the base. So now I put the base in the stuff sack, and brought the Viper Stuffa pouch for the kettle. That way with it being MOLLE I can strap it to most of my pack on the outside.
Nice video, I really enjoy using my KK :)
Thank you 😊. Yes I enjoy mine more each time I use it.
So sweet that you made your daughter a wand and saved the shavings. I enjoy the process of using the KK very much. I wish I could have purchased the Backcountry Boiler when it was in production. It was a great size for packing. I have a Scout for car camping or paddle trips. I enjoyed your video very much . Thanks.❤
Thanks for watching 😊
I have been tired while watching the video :) :). I kindly advise to buy the "hobo stove" accessory for this kettle. This accessory has been designed wind in mind but the little orifices on top suffocates the fire when there is no wind. I have doubled in size these orifices and now the stove works fine. Together with an 18cm Al non stick pan (which is a lot more lighter than Stanley) everything go in perfect order. You won't even use oil if your meat has some fat. Just pour a little bit of boiling water then put your meat in. The fat will get melted and will cover your pan after water evaporates. Also there are quite always something around to burn so no need to carry bricks with you. A piece of cotton toegther with a little bit used oil from home will burn everything in seconds. I carry this oil in a Clipper lighter fluid's plastic case so you will use less and no you will not have any spills. I put the thickest woods at the bottom then cotton and a little bit oil (not soak the cotton completely, you will not burn it fith fire striker) on top. I start the fire, put the KK on the fire base immediately then start feeding it. When water boils, the hobo stove kicks in. Cheers.
Thanks for watching. I do have the hobo ring for this stove. I just forgot it in this vid. That’s what I had to use tent pegs.
@@MSIOutdoors I must say that you are very organized and love being outdoors, that's obivious. If you have the hobo stove I suggest to make the flame output rectangle orifices bigger by cutting them with Dremel's cutting tool. Making them twice as big as the original makes a huge difference. Trekker model suffers from this flaw but the base camp and scout models don't, since they are bigger in size. Also I'm using 26cm pan for my base camp set.
the kk if used correctly is a stove for cooking with small pan and small frying pan, cup for hot or cold drinks kettle for boiling water, water carrier and fire to keep you warm all in one.
how much room does a bottle of water pan set stove cup and fuel take up.
Thanks for watching
Must use my Kelly kettle more. A great bit of kit
Thanks for watching
NICELY DONE!
😊thank you. Thanks for watching.
Its like you are reaching through your legs into the bag and grabbing stuff from Narnia...
Shhh don’t tell anyone 😜
Great watch cus🖤
Cheers dude 🔥
Good job. I've got mixed feelings about this video. You did a really nice job of prepping your materials and cooking up your food. However, I've gotten lots & lots of feedback from the KK community about how you don't need to purchase fuel and that the KK is a survival tool so I'm not a big fan of carrying dry tender material. In reality, what does one do in wet conditions and can't bring materials from home? I do have a question. Do you think the KK is worth sacrificing that much backpack space and the amount of work you had to do to work inside that small container? Thanks for putting this together and sharing.
Hi, thanks for watching. In my opinion it’s a great bit of kit to have, but only if you are going on a day hike or a stroll around the woods, or even car camping etc it’s worth it.
I often take the dry wood with me as I don’t get much time, to faff around with getting wet wood to burn etc, but this does do a great job with wet wood.
Answer to you question is defo not worth sacrificing space, I wouldn’t take it with me on a camp as it does take so much space. But little hikes/walks around my local woodland it’s definitely a great bit of kit to have.
Hope this is helpful.
I think my previous KK vid I used wet wood (but I’m not 100%). If not I will do one using wet wood etc.
Thanks again for watching.
@MSI Outdoors I appreciate it, brother. I like your channel because you put in the dirt time & get me thinking. I also like that you got back to me so quickly. See you on the next one!
Getting a fire burning with wet wood is tough, but easier if you start with dry wood then add wet wood after. Shave the bark off some dry sticks and put them in a pocket so they’ll dry by the time you get to camp. P.s. editing to say, shave bark off of WET sticks once you’re in the woods I mean. If it’s dry out no worries but if everything is soaked you’ll want to prep some drying hours before you need it. The reality is that when we go out into the woods and choose to go lower tech, time, skill, and preparation need to increase in order to fill that gap. My rule is however much time you think you need to prep, double it. However much wood you think you need, double it. It’s annoying but saves time in the long run.
while i love the concept of this, the size and weight make it too hard to carry for backpacking imo. it would be great for a base camp scenario and such though.
Thanks for watching. I totally agree with you, I would never take it on a camping trip, because how mush space it take up. But as a little walk around my local woodland, I do like to use it.
Could have been a fantastic video, but you chose to not talk to explain what you were doing.
Thanks for watching. Video is pretty self explanatory, walk in the woods, cook some bacon, also i get people chewing my ear off every day, so getting out enjoying nature in silence suits me fine.
