    Default What cooking system for GSI Soloist pot?

    I need something to make to hold the pot steady while boiling or cooking w butane mini tank. Im usually a 2 night backpacker, not trying to be super UL.

    I was using something like this but find it too delicate, and not steady as you add water into the pot.

    I have used one of those pots on a cat food can alcohol stove and a BRS canister stove with good results

    If UL isn't your ursuit, it's hard to beat an MSR pocket rocket with isobutane tank (I have the same system and everything fits into my cookpot) or you can get a knock-off like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CKHBBZH...I2B0VZIRWGQL7D

    This one will work well with many pots and denatured alcohol will light well below freezing and the stove is "quiet":



    Shug has tried them all

    Thanks! Ive had something like pocket rocket and I felt it was dicy steadiness wise with the little pot holder arms..... had to really carefully set the pot with water on top. I guess I should keep it or... get something on the opposite spectrucm like a Jetboil.
