You need firewood and fuel for cooking, warmth and a good fire. Here you will find cubes and curls to start a fire fast. There is also a bottle for liquid fuel for your burner. Everything comes in small packs, so it is easy to take along.
Firewood and fuel: what do you choose?
Solid or liquid, that is the question. You light an Esbit cube in no time. It burns calmly and uses little fuel. Curls and Light My Fire Mayasticks help your wood catch fire fast. Liquid fuel, however, gives a strong, steady flame. Therefore it belongs with a burner or stove. Trangia makes a safe bottle for it.
Each type has its place. Cubes are great for a small stove or to start your campfire. Choose liquid fuel if you cook often and for a long time. Besides, you save fuel, since you only use what you need.
