Thanks for the vid

I use one sometimes at work. Here are photos of Yugo for an MRE Lunch taken this summer.
Working near the river , so at lunch time I walked down away from the job site and started cooking .
Good compact product, water bottle stores inside
Cut a tea tin down to use as a steamer lid and storage case for the Esbit. This Slides on the bottom of the main pot. I wish Japan's SNOW PEAK company made a lighter version of this product with a purpose made alcohol burner

I thought it is a great design but needed a compartment to store the Esbit stove and some tabs. So I searched for something the same diameter to fit on the bottom. I found a English Tea box fits perfect. You can carry the small German stove, Fuel and matches.
It is one of the best designs out there to heat meals boil in the bag style . The cup is mot very good but you can substitute the Swedish folding cup.. this kit is rectangle shaped you can pack it better in a ruck sack.
