Toaks Titanium Wood Gasifier Stove Small

[@Magoo652]

Interesting review. I have a stainless steel set up similar to the Toaks, a little heavier but very efficient burn. Thanks for sharing.

[@CDPOutdoors]

Hi Sven. Thanks for watching and your comment. This type of stove is a good design, which ever brand you buy. All the best Clive 🤠

[@Magoo652]

@CDPOutdoors Hi Clive, it wasn't expensive, so I bought the set & was surprised how well it worked. I tried with home made coffee tin twig stove years ago. Nowhere near as good as the Goshawk.

@@Magoo652 Can you find a link to the one you are on about

[@Magoo652]

@CDPOutdoors I bought mine around 18 months ago & the stainless steel set is no longer shown on the Goshawk site. Their current one's are Titanium.

[@CDPOutdoors]

I saw the titanium set. I'm tempted to get one to try out.

An alcohol burner is great to have with the gasifier due to a fire ban. Plus, the gasifier will make a perfect windshield. :)

Must say best of both worlds a secondary gasification and classic hobo,can see in really wet conditions pros and cons like all others a go to.

[@CDPOutdoors]

Good all year round. And a personal close-up heat source, using less wood. All the best. Clive. 🤠

I bought the Toaks stove, but I was struggling a bit with it. So, I watched your video for suggestions. I think the shorter 550ml cooking cup/pot might help, so it doesn't get to tall and top heavy. Like you mentioned near the end, slowing down and enjoying the process might also help. Thanks

[@CDPOutdoors]

Hi Katherine. Good to hear my video helped. Slowing down and enjoying is the best part. All the best. Clive

@@CDPOutdoors it's meant to be a top down fire. You load it with fuel, cat litter wood pellets are ideal. Then you can use partially buried tinder, or just a small amount of alcohol fuel to get it burning. It is completely smokeless once it's going and there's very little ash at the end. You can also use natural fuel, although it takes patience to collect pen thickness dry twigs and break them up into tiny pieces and natural wood never lasts as long. I hope this is helpful and allows you get more enjoyment from these stoves. Most people do it wrong. You can top it up when the fuel is running out, but it generates smoke. It will create embers to simmer or slow cook on for a long time, total burn time is 2 hours and about 45 minutes of strong flame. I let it burn and start a new burn instead of topping it up because it interrupts the top down burn. So let it burn, empty ashes and start again. These woodgas stoves need more love. If you're backpacking you could collect wood as you walk along so you have unlimited fiel.

@@aodh5966 Thank you

[@BosisofSweden]

You load it, light it and let it burn. Don't feed it. The fire and heat gets better if you just let it do its job.

[@CDPOutdoors]

G'day bosis. Thank you. Learning the best wood to use around me. Every day we try something the new, the more we learn All the best Clive

[@seanyouknowwho798]

Seems like a good wood burning stove. Stable and holds decent amount of wood. Also is a very controllable fire with little trace behind of a fire. Downside seems to be very small cooking can be done, but that is all part of hiking and backpack cooking. I have a very cheap folding wood or alcohol tab stove. Alcohol tabs didn’t work well as fire was not controllable and mess kit pan would slip all over. May mod it before a wood test, but really like your stove sooooo much better.

[@CDPOutdoors]

Thank you Sean. Much appreciated mate. All the best with your future mods to your stove. Clive

What is kind of bird/animal is making that nose in the background? Another great video! Thanks for the review!

Can’t get one shipped to US or just Maine?

[@CDPOutdoors]

Hi Karen. Amazon can be a pain. Try direct from Toaks. Zero commission for me lol www.toaksoutdoor.com/ All the best Clive

[@tamiboelter2833]

how long does it take to boil 3 cups of water?

[@CDPOutdoors]

Hi Tami. That all depends on the wood you use, & how you feed the wood. This type of stove for me is more of a relax & kick back stove.

[@philipdavenport5246]

Some time spent on KZbin will show the correct method of usage of a gasifier wood-burner.

[@adamb7426]

Great video. It seems to burn clean. How bad did it blacken your pot over time?

[@CDPOutdoors]

Not as bad as the box stoves. I was surprised with it.

[@adamb7426]

@@CDPOutdoorsExcellent, that's what I wanted to hear. Keep up the videos and thanks for the response. 👍

[@Magoo652]

Forgot to mention tbat mine is a Goshawk brand.

[@CDPOutdoors]

Thanks Sven. Just been over and had a look at the Goshawk ones. Good looking bits of kit. All the best Clive 🤠

[@HNSeventyFive]

I noticed that when I boil water in my Toaks 900ml pot with this Toaks solid fuel stove, the water tastes odd. A bit burnt tasting, as if the smoke from the wood somehow got into the water. This doesn't happen if I use an iso fuel, propane or regular gas stove. Has anyone noticed this?

[@CDPOutdoors]

Do you have your lid on your pot?

[@HNSeventyFive]

@@CDPOutdoors Yes. I've done this several times with the same results. So you don't get the weird taste? I'm camping this week and will give it another go, and let you know what I get. Hope it'll eventually work out because I really like this stove and enjoy using it. Thanks!

[@HeyMykee]

@@HNSeventyFive And, only 2 years later-Overheated water causes a burnt taste. This is true for coffee, and probably other things as well. You want to stop short of a full boil, or even after it just starts 'spriting' (tiny bubbles breaking the surface). If the flames are really high they might be heating the water too much.

[@sunshine-nu1df]

There's no smoak.. 🤗

[@CDPOutdoors]

Nope. Not once it gets going.

[@danielkutcher5704]

There is always some smoke. When you are in a hurry, you won't take the time and burn extra fuel waiting for the stove to gasify. It's a good twig stove, because the height increases the intake of air which intensifies the flame. The bigger version requires less tending, and a wider pot makes the best use of the broad flame pattern vs. a pressurized gas stove. The same is true for alcohol stoves.

What a waste of fire starters
