Ghillie Kettle Aluminium Maverick 500ml

Ghillie Kettle Aluminium Mavericks are ideal for any outdoor activity where weight and availability of liquid fuel is an issue. They even work in storm conditions, bringing water to the boil within a matter of minutes using whatever solid fuel is naturally occurring in the area – sticks, grass, pine cones, birch bark.

Handmade by traditional metal spinning techniques from aluminium discs, these solid fuel kettles are lightweight and tough, making them suitable for camping and travelling. This Maverick design is the smallest in the range and will hold up to 500ml of water, enough for two people to enjoy a cup of tea. 

To use, simply pour water in to the spout and add the safety whistle bung. Place your foraged fuel in the bottom of the pan on which the kettle sits. Once lit, flames rise through the middle of the chimney. The hole at the side of the base plate allows more fuel to be added and also allows oxygen to be sucked in as the flames rise (you can also add combustible items down through the centre of the chimney). The sturdy link chain ensures that the safety whistle bung will not be lost during adventures, and the wooden grip on the handle means you can carry the kettle stove without burning your hands.

The genius of these stoves is that it not only will it boil water quickly, it will also warm up and cook food when used in conjunction with a Ghillie Kettle Pot Support. These lightweight fittings slot over the stoves chimney and allow pots to securely rest on top of them, with the chimney exhaust heat cooking and warming the contents.

Please be aware that these Ghillie Kettles are crafted by hand, and by nature of this process they may have slight cosmetic imperfections. This does not in any way affect their performance, but is part of the charm of handmade products.
