Details
The heart of the Caldera Keg System is the popular Caldera Cone that delivers stability, wind resistance, pot support and the best heat transfer you are going to find in a windscreen. The Caldera Keg pot seeks to minimize the impact on the planet by reusing discarded beverage containers for the pot and lid. On the lip of the Keg we have included a silicon band to help protect you from the hot edge and a second larger band for non-formed cans. We also include an insulating sleeve/cozy for handling the Keg and keeping your liquids warm. The 12-10 stove includes an integrated primer pan and is specifically designed to run in the higher heat and reduced oxygen environment inside the cone. The fuel bottle kit includes not only a 5.5oz fuel bottle, but a reducer, lid, measuring cup and instructions. All of this has been carefully designed to fit perfectly into the Caldera Caddy that will protect your system under normal use while doubling as a mug and bowl!

Specifications
Note on Pot Volume: Trail Designs forms a "ridge" in the body of the beverage container so that it rests on the top of the cone. This ridge is right at 2cups which means that you can get 2 cups of water down inside the cone to heat, which is pretty standard for most dehydrated meals. The TOTAL volume of the container is 25.4 fl oz, but the top portion of that will not be inside the cone.
Min Weight:
Weight of Pot/Cone/Stove - 2.7oz / 77gm
Weight of Everything - 6.3oz / 181gm
Can be shaved down to 62 gms by leaving the Caddy at home.

| January 2009 - TGO Magazine Mine's a Large One - Beer Can Pot/Stove Review "....on longer trips and on occasions when it's particularly windy The Caldera Keg has proven itself to be outstanding......" |
| "The Trail Designs Caldera Cone has transformed the alcohol stove into a
cooking system as convenient and reliable ..... as a
canister stove." Will Rietveld |
- "In use, it works. I'm not going to try and time how long
it takes to boil 500ml of water or anything - that all gets thrown out
the window when it's minus 7 and you can't feel your fingers. You just
splash some meths into the centre of the burner, spill a little on the
built-in priming pan, light it and snuggle back into your down cocoon,
confident that this is the most efficient meths cooking system you'll
ever use."
