Gas stove

The gas stove is the most commonly used. There are three types of gas types.

• Remains with the hob
• Reed integrated
• Box with the box

Divided study

These small gas stoves, high in the fire -fighting energy and a high content of safety factors. Due to the gas tube, the possibility of heating the gas tank is small. This type of stove separates the burner’s head from the gas tank. It is the stove that everyone often sees in nature and can cook various dishes.

It is more suitable for camping with several people to meet the cooking needs of several people.

ADVANTAGE It is strong support and good stability.

Pay It is that it is voluminous, difficult and uncomfortable to transport

When connecting the gas cylinder, it must be tight; When using the gas cylinder, it must be positioned in a flat place, otherwise the flame will become easily and small if the connection is not good, causing danger.

Integrated stove

The integrated gas stove is a direct connection between the head of the stove and the bottle of gas, without a tube, and the weight is relatively easy. The most integrated stoves weigh about 60-200 g.

ADVANTAGEIt is that it is easier in weight, smaller size and easy to transport.

PayStang> is a low stability and low wind resistance.

It is more suitable for scenes with few people, like 1-2 people; Since the head of the stove is small, it is possible to use only a small pot; When you use it, pay attention to the wind. If you always go out, you can buy it as a reserve.

There is also an all-in-one gas stove for external use at high altitudes. In short, it is a miracle. In a cold at high altitude environment, you can quickly boil the water and boil the noodles. It mainly depends on the heating speed. It is not necessary to buy it if it is not used for the outside at high altitudes.

Cassette

The box with the box is a little big, so it is mainly suitable for the car trip. The box stove appeared previously and many restaurants also use it, but there are some risks for safety and induction stove is gradually replaced.

The main component of the pressure adjustment valve inside the stove with the box is an arch, but the duration of this arc will gradually give up the accumulation of use.

Therefore, the box with the box is mainly safe and has some hidden dangers. In general, it is advisable to buy a famous brand, which is relatively safe.

Small size, suitable for foods that can be cooked over low heat, such as: «Boil the water, cook noodles, cook oatmeal and fry over low heat». The alcoholic stove is generally not the first choice, although they are light, with many restrictions and economic, it can be used as a supplement.

How to choose the osoba with alcohol?

We advise you to choose a small bowl with a thin wall and a good heat management for the alcoholic ship.

Alcohol is better to choose solid alcohol. If launched, the flow of flow produced by liquid alcohol is not easy to extinct. Therefore, the alcoholic stove must choose a stove with solid alcohol or liquid alcohol.

The characteristics of the alcoholic stove are that it is cheap, easy and easy to transport, but has low wind resistance. It is better to buy a stove that occupies less space and can be completely stacked.

Asabe uses conjalzioni with alcohol

The cooked speed of the alcoholic stove is the slowest, uses a small fire for a long time and the heat of the alcoholic stove is low, so the heating is the slowest.

Enough for campaigns with short trips, low and half a demanding budget.

Alcoholic stoves are used only at low altitudes.

Petrol stovePetrol refers here mainly to white petrol. White petrol is volatile, odorless and its ignition point is low. It is the most popular fuel for mountaineering stoves in North America. It burns with a higher heat than the Butano and can quickly dissolve the snow, boil the water and heat the food.

Unlike the kerosene, refined white petrol or white petrol for the gasifier can be preheated by themselves. But petrol should never be used as a fuel for the stove, not even lead, unless you have chosen. Only the use of the right fuel will not clog the stove nozzles, do not exaggerate and does not emit toxic vapors.

Oil stoves divided into two types: integrated and divided type. The integrated type means that the head of the stove and the gas tank are not separated and the divided type means that the head of the stove and the gas tank are separated.

The advantages of the oil stove

Lighter for long distance travelers; Fuel easier to obtain, such as petrol, kerosene, diesel; High heating efficiency.

The revelations of the stove with oil

It is difficult to use, the oil oven must be preheated before use and the oil is gasified; The oil oven requires careful maintenance, otherwise the burner’s head will be blocked, which is very inappropriate for beginner users and can be blocked after 3-4 alive burners.

Wood stove

The advantages of the wood stove

The most primitive way, simpler and more emotional to set fire. There are many wood wood wood, so you can simply collect and burn them, saving money on fuel. Wooden stoves can be fed with burning wood or fuel or coal particles.

The disadvantages of the stove on the wood

The stoves that can be burned are equipped with folding fireplaces, which are relatively heavy and require utility vehicles to transport them; The method for breeding dry wood cannot be used in rainy or snowy days, therefore it is necessary to bring a particular fuel.

Sobe is Kerossen

Kerosen stoves are mainly produced in Japan and are divided into the type of most basic convection, in the type of convection + thermal radiation with reflector and air nutrition.

The basic convection stoves based on Kerosen do not use electricity, while others use batteries and some use electricity.

How to choose a Kerosen stove?

The main reason to choose a kerosene stove is that it can be used for heating in a tent. As for cooking outside, it is the same with other stoves. The main consideration for heating inside the curtain is the size of the smell of the kerosene. If it burns for 10 minutes, it will be stable. After that, Kerosen’s smell is still obvious, so you shouldn’t buy it, otherwise you will not be able to sleep.

The Kerosen stove does not need a fireplace. The largest advantage is that it can be positioned in a heating curtain and can also boil the water to cook. The kerosene burns more completely than wood, so it produces less carbon monoxide. However, however, it is necessary to pay attention to certain fans when heating in a closed curtain, otherwise, can cause carbon monoxide poisoning for a long time. In addition, the Japanese stoves with Kerosen have the function of automatic flame that extinguishes through vibrations.

The earthquakes, the blows, the dumping and kicks with the foot will immediately extinguish the flames. The extinction device of the vibrations is mechanically pure and does not depend on the energy power supply

The main problem of the stove with Kerosen is that the smell of kerosene is hard if illuminated and extinct. After burning for a while, the smell will be easier. The combustion of the kerosene depends on the wick inside, so that the wick must be replaced after a period of use.

Summarize
