If you fancy dipping a toe in the warm waters of ultralite cooking but don’t really know where to begin … this could be the answer. It’s both simple in name and nature. Pour your meths in, light it, wait 30 seconds and place your pot on top … told you it was simple!

Unlike the Bear Bones 8g and 22g the ‘Simple’ stove is a single wall meths stove, it’s not as complex or time consuming to manufacture and is painted rather than polished. If I was in marketing, I’d say that they’re a limited edition and only available for a short time. However, the truth is, I found a box of bottles under the workbench that I must have bought by accident. They’re not 8g or 22g size, so they’ve now been lovingly crafted into ‘Simple’ stoves. It’s true that they may only be available for a limited time but then again they might not. Each stove weighs 8g and measures 31mm x 40mm, a pot of 80mm diameter up to 120mm would be ideal.

If you’d like to get your hands on one, send £10 via Paypal to stuart@forestfreeride.co.uk (inc your address) and I’ll get you one in the post … I’ll throw in a 100ml fuel bottle too.

‘Simple’ stoves waiting to make your tea!

Inclusive – at what cost?

Last week, someone told me that, in certain circles Bear Bones is viewed as being ‘less than inclusive’. Had they said ‘full of weirdos’ or ‘a bit odd’, then I’d have readily agreed but lacking inclusiveness? No. Have these people not seen how the forum welcomes everyone with open arms or how for the last […]
