Small, compact and tested to the limits: The Esbit pocket stove (also Esbit stove) is a well-known product. The folding stove is particularly practical. It takes up little space in your backpack and is also lightweight. As the name suggests, it fits in your pocket on longer trips if necessary. The matching solid fuel to light the pocket stove is also included. It fits inside the stove for a small pack size.
Burning time of the solid fuel tablets is app. 5 minutes.
Functional design: On the one hand, the Esbit stove can be set up in a few simple steps. Depending on the design, you can adjust the stove position to two or three angles. On the other hand, it is also versatile: you can use camping pots, mugs and pans to cook on the pocket stove.
Esbit stoves are made of electrolytically galvanized steel.
On your outdoor tours, the Esbit stove is ideal for heating water, for example for preparing dehydrated trekking food. You also benefit from the fact that solid fuel burns quietly and produces no visible smoke when bushcrafting. It is also particularly durable and reliable. This makes it an important part of your survival equipment or emergency backpack and also serves as a firelighter.
