Here's a hack I've used for putting space-saving handles on improvised cooking gear: The metal duct sealing tape that's rated for several hundred degrees of heat could be used to make a fold-flat handle for that pie pan when you want to use it as a lid. Take a strip that's maybe 4 inches long. Fold the middle 2 inches in on each other so they stick together in an inverted 'T' and affix the outer sections to the center of the 'bottom' of the pan (or the 'top' of the lid). You can put strips of the tape across both of those ends to help keep the center from trying to pull away when you use the improvised handle to lift the lid. You can even punch a hole in the doubled center section if you want. Rounding the corners off the tape before application makes a more wear-resistant handle. The HVAC tape is pretty durable and holds up to repeated bending and unbending without tearing. Fold it flat for packing and when used as a plate (or fry pan), and pull it upright to use as a handle to lift it when it's a 'lid'. Easy and cheap to make and replace if needed.
Now that's a bush pot! Something I've sought for many years with all the features I was looking for. Great job Fire Maple and thank you Mark for reviewing it!
Thanks Mark. I have a 1.1 Mors pot, but have been looking for something like it in Stainless Steel. This very intriguing. The lack of a butterfly handle is why I avoided the Zebra. I wish that the Pathfinder was made smaller.
The pot and billy pot are great! These have good improvements over traditional models, and they're optimized for camping. Boil, Cook, Steam, fry and even bake. You can do it all with this! They cost twice as much as everything else like it, which makes them only affordable for the wealthy, but it's nice to see good things.
Useful video and some nice kt. You mentioned the chamfered bottom on the dome lid pot. Having a chamfer or curve is good for stopping food from burning in the corners when cooking on an open fire. One problem I have found with smaller kettles on some stove, is that more heat goes up around the edges of the kettle and it has taken me longer to boil water using a 0.8L ketter, than it did with a 1.2L saucepan, on my trangia clone cooker. I no longer carry the kettle, but carry an extra pot, which actually has more uses. Just a side thought.
@@MarkYoungBushcraft I added them to my email? Where are they at? I don't like to buy out of the states! Do they have stores around here? Who's selling the Fire Maple 🍁. Is the stainless good quality? I been looking for a good set! Thanks
@@dianeclemmer1344 They are available on Amazon US as well as most on Amazon Canada. You can buy them through their website and I believe they ship from the US. Of course, they are all made in China
@@dianeclemmer1344 Only that is 304 stainless steel. A type very commonly used for cooking pots and pans. You are likely aware that much of what is available her in North America is from China and that quality and safety is more about the company than the country of origin. I feel confident in the Fire Maple products
Mark, out of all the outdoor UA-cam channels I'm subscribed to, yours seem to lhave the best audio quality. Not sure what mic you use, but it should be the standard that all bushcraft/outdoor UA-camrs should be using lol. I never have to stop and turn up the volume in your videos to hear your voice over background noise. Oh and this pot and kettle system looks great!
Thank you. I upgraded my recording system about a year ago after a damaged my old camera. I now use a Canon M50 and Rode Wireless Go microphone. Thanks for commenting
Very good / great review the fry pan & pie tin top was a great idea .👍 The Billy pot & water pot good info looking forward to your reviews. Keep up the great work like your details.
I love the frying pan idea with oven potential. I wonder how it would be if they reconfigured the fry pan slightly so that two of them would fit together, one right-side up, one upside down, for the same effect you achieved with the pie pan. They could sell more product and the user would have two frying pans.
G'day Mark, cant really complain about the ol' Zebra gear, they do hold up well and for the price, hard to beat IMO, but this Fire Maple stuff has more thought/features put into them. For example, I wouldn't normally consider including a bulky kettle in a pack loadout, ..... but nested, maybe I would. I have seen a specifically designed plate//lid on a frypan before, but to be honest cant remember where, in any event gotta be a good thing; since personally I wouldn't be cooking and eating at the same time, (on the trail anyway). I reckon a 3 sided wood burner makes sense, no need for 4, and the compound angles on this one would surely help to spread the heat more evenly over a wider cross sectional area. Thanks for showing this lot mate and look forward to seeing them in use. Cheers Duke.
I own and love four Zebra billys. They are bombproof. This Fire Maple pot just gives a bit more versatility. I am looking forward to testing out the wood stove. Thanks for commenting Duke
You are very good at tinkering Mark. :) The kettle at 2:19 does look like a giant Trangia stove. Did you want to turn it into a giant Trangia alcohol stove, a wood gas stove, or Trangia wood gas and alcohol all in one stove? That would be so cool to see! :)
Hi again, Thanks for sharing. The 1.2L pot has a raised flat top (domed) lid no holes? So how useful would it be as a plate / bowel please, what is its capacity. Contemplating getting the 12cm pot, but as I have the Zebra pots it is a self indulgence. Yet another very interesting presentation. Take care Many thanks Best regards Colin
Yes, the dome lid could be used as a small plate or bowl. I measure it to hold about 250ml. I will pot the FM up against the 12cm Zebra in the review. Thanks for commenting
Looks like good gear. Love the look of the kettle but personally like a larger diameter lid so one can put something like a Clikstand stove inside. The pie pan looks like a Firebox cowboy plate. If you have one of those Mark could you check if it fits, also fire box do a shallow cowboy plate that may be an alternative to the deep one as a skillet lid.
I understand. A larger opening makes it easier to clean and to store things inside. I have the large, deep cowboy plate from Firebox and it is too large. I may obtain the smaller set at some point. Thanks for commenting
Nice gear, but far too big and heavy for what I would need as a solo backpack bushcrafter. The Antarcti pot is of some interest, but heavy at 1 pound. They do have the Alti 900ml ti pot though which I am interested in. It lacks the the locking lid, but that does not trouble me much. Would be nice if they came up with some solo bushcraft sized items of what you showed us that would fit together (like maybe the pot the kettle and the frypan). Cheers!
Hey Mark thanks for another great review! I have been somewhat sceptical of fire maple but I have to say those are some impressive looking pieces. I really like the new and improved Billy pot. What you said is true… What the billy pot could’ve been! I think I am the most interested in the kettle and I just saw on Amazon that they do offer a 1.5 L version… I needed one for my backyard for a cooking over the fire with the kids and that might fit the bill perfectly! There definitely is a lack of decent kettles out there (and the good ones from Norway are hard to come by) that you can use over the fire. I look forward to the reviews and some more recipes from you… One more thing, in your future videos could you comment about your experience with fire Maples warranty?!
Hello Mark, Well thought out cook ware, thanks for the review. Is there a chance that sometime in the future you could do a side by side between the Fire Maple billy and your Camelwill 1.2L Billy?That Camelwill you introduced me to is still a strong contender in my kit. Stay safe and I hope the burn bans will soon ease up a bit. -- and ours as well. Cheers
some more suggestions - the pot should come with an internal grate that can be specifically used as a bottom broiler or on its side as an oven, and the pie pan is a better idea than a lid (to keep cooking embers out) specifically (versus serendipitously) because you can also use it as a plate or an "oven" lid, however, it needs a rim and handle so that it seats securely but can be removed easily. Great products though. PS - I will be buying one BECAUSE of the Canadian Maple Leaf perforation pattern :-)
Thanks for another great video Mark. When I saw that frying pan my first thought was, I wonder if that would if that would work with the Trangia 25? Hmmm...
Unfortunately no, to all questions. The lid is much smaller than the pan and the pot and kettle are close but not quite the right size. Plus the rounded bottoms cause them to role in the Trangia. Thanks for commenting
@MarkYoungBushcraft i was wondering about the Antarctica pot that the kettle fits in. I coundnt see another reson for the same ring the steamer rest on. But if steamer is bushpot only that answers it. Thank you.
@@unionblade Okay, I understand now and can see what you mean. If you are interested Fire Maple has a new larger 1.8L pot that comes a steamer, I am testing it now but no review yet
I have been avoiding stainless steel pans. Someone told me that they are crazy sticking, that you need to have good temperature control to use these half good. The claim was that if you put your food in too soon, while the pan is not hot enough yet, it sticks, but if it's too hot it also sticks. This pan has some appealing features, though and i'll wait for your review of that. For me, i think, that pan would be perfect, if it'd be made of HA aluminium. I wonder about the stove, would it be usable with charcoal, if the feedport is covered with some perforeted plate?
From my experience, all pans can have food stick, even cast iron. Technique is is important, especially with stainless steel and titanium. You are correct about the pan not being hot enough before putting food in. I am planning a video on this topic. I just cooked an omelet in this pan with no sticking at all. I will test out the stove with charcoal. Thanks for commenting
Where did these guys come from? They don't just copy other products. I'm thinking there are some active outdoor people at that company. Here's an experiment for you, Mark. If you bend a wire hook that will fit into the butterfly handles, wide enough not to slide around, you might be able to hang your 12 cm 'oven' from your tripod. Easy to adjust.
I wonder, since it is removable if you could bend the ends inward a bit to give it more tension. I will see what I can say about this in my review. Thanks for commenting
@@MarkYoungBushcraft I tried that and when trying to bend it I could hear a crack, like maybe a weld breaking although I can’t see anything. Kind of makes me nervous sometimes that it might break off full of hot water but it hasn’t, my handle just won’t stay up and after hearing that cracking sound I don’t want to press my Luck with it again, lol. I still like the kettle though. Like your videos mark, I’ve watched. Lot of your stove videos and tests, I think I’m addicted to stoves. I’m also your neighbour, I’m a fellow Canadian in Newfoundland.
Same to same The 1 liter size not the 1.5 liter size The GSI is $25 The Fire Maple is $29 The Fire Maple looks a lot more sturdy for bushcraft for an extra $4
Thanks, I’ve watched lots of your video reviews and they’re always good. 👍🏻 I’m not a fan of Firemaple though, it’s yet another Chinese company which steals the intellectual property of established brands and copies them, in this case the kettle is a copy of the Norwegian Eagle Kettle, another example is that Firemaple sell several copies of the USA designed JetBoil. 👎🏻
Very nice 😁. Do you think a small 110g gas can would fit inside the kettle? If they don't already make one you should suggest adding a grill to the stove . Probably won't have any trouble finding firewood this year thanks to Fiona 🌀💨🌳🪵🪓🔥🤠
