Stoves...Quiet+Convenient..Can't find info

[eddiechuck]

I know this subject musta come up somewhere, but I'll be danged is I can find it. But then I'm new here. I've been searching threads as far back as '05........Anyway....
these are the 2 things I want, Quiet & Convenient.
No filling, no assembly, so I'm pretty much set on a cannister stove.
Are they quiet?
Yes/No?
Simmer?
Yes/No?
OK then, what would you recommend?
wt. not THAT much of an issue
Thanks for any help

rarely simmer.

not quiet.

rarely simmer.

...and require assembly. Pretty easy assembly but assembly nonetheless.

[eddiechuck]

what's to assemble? unfold, screw in and you're done, right?

My canister stove is a Snow Peak GigaPower Titanium stove.
At under 4,000 BTUs it's very quiet, at 10,000 BTUs it sounds like a blow torch.
It simmers very well and fits inside my Vargo Ti-Lite Mug with the fuel canister.

+1 for the snow peak giga... i love that thing, simmers quite nicely and boil is pretty impressive over a faily wide flame so you dont get scorching.

also i have an optimus crux lite that simmers well but doesn't boil well. might have a bit more of a tinkering factor than you might appreciate but it definitely folds down a lot more compact than i need it to. i really like both of my stoves.

Hey, suit yourself.

Quiet = Alcohol Stove
All require some fuss
All require carrying fuel except for wood stoves:

Titanium Goat Ti Tri etc...

my jet boil will simmer,,and boil in 3-4 min,,but your going to carry a pound,,and it will roar when wide open to boil..quick and easy,,but I still prefer, whitebox alky stove for boiling water, no simmer with it tho.

Hey, suit yourself.

OK Skid, so you're an ETOH burner. That was my first choice, but I decided I just don't want to mess around.

My Crux Lite boils great! highly reccomend. Maybe you're using a more narrow pot, I dunno.
