All things being equal, which is the correct way to heat rations between 1. and 2.?housil wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 2:50 pmThere isn´t a "the correct" way. Any way is correct to heat rations, depends what is available in the fields. I like my electric 24V rations heater. All I have to do is to turn a switch on. That´s the quickest way when I´m motorized.CaptainCoOrdinates wrote: ↑Sun Oct 10, 2021 6:17 pmHi, I’m new to this forum but you all seem very informed so I thought I’d ask a question; What is the correct (or quickest) way to heat MRE’s in the field?
I prefer to heat them up in boiling water (jetboil, tommy cooker etc.) as hotter as better are the mains.
Boiling water and adding the rations is different to:
Boiling water and rations together.
Is one way (the often cited "correct way") more correct in a food heating way, and/or is heating rations and water together more correct in a fuel efficiency/time to heat sort of way?
Which takes longer/uses less fuel?
