This is a good video. I own many of these little butane stoves, and have an absolutely crucial - - LIFESAVING piece of advice. These stoves WILL NOT work AT ALL if the butane gas cartridges are below about 35 degrees Fahrenheit. If you need to use this stove in cold weather/crisis situatuion, make sure you tuck the cartridge in your coat until the butane cartridge reaches about 70 degrees F. Then it'll work great. Otherwise, expect the stove to produce a very low flame. Don't believe me? Put a full butane cartridge in the fridge for about 12 hours. Put it in your stove....very poor performance. Warm the butane up and.. wah-lah! it works. You're welcome. This advice will save your life some day. God bless. Love you all.

I have a couple of these and I love them. The food industry has recently latched onto them and therefore, the fuel is very inexpensive. The best and most reliable source for these stoves and fuel is Asian grocery stores! I recently bought the exact model shown in this video for $15.99 and a 5 pack of butane cans for $5.99. These little stoves are surprisingly powerful and fuel efficient.

My question is concerning which width of Kuhn Rikon pressure cookers will fit on the portable single butane burners. The standard size 8.75" or the 11 inch Family size. Or both? Do you have the 11" Hotel or Family Style Kuhn Rikon width pans or the Kuhn Rikon's standard 8.75" or 22 cm pans? I ask because I need to know if the wider Hotel/Family style Kuhn Rikon would fit on the butane burner or not. I live in the boonies and the only place that carries the Kuhn Rikon online charges a 25% restocking fee and I'd have to pay $50 to ship it back. I am trying to make sure I get the right size. I really want the Kuhn Rikon's Hotel/Family 11" wider and shorter pot. Second, I don't know how long it would take a 12 Quart , 1/2 full to come to pressure vs a 8 qt vs a 5 qt. I live at sea level. If its only a difference of 2-3 minutes as you go up in size that seems reasonable. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate you expertise. I need to use a single burner to cook on probably 4 times a month because our power goes off a lot due to storms. Thanks again. I am sure other readers will benefit from your answer too.

And or is the propane bad for cooking with a pressure cooker? What is the name brand of the butane stove your purchased? You didn't mention it. I need to buy one ASAP. I live in the deep south and we lose power for 2-3 days once a month and sometimes upto a week at a time. We have lots of hurricane-like storms with high winds that knock down power. I am also thinking about snapping up a WMF Pefrect Plus pressure cooker because it is supposed to be the BMW of pressure cookers and it is on sale for 1/3 the normal cost. Some one I know is selling it. But she has 4 other people interested and I need to get back to her today. The WMF Pefrect Plus 8.5 quart is new she only used it once and decided pressure cooking was too complicated for her. Anyway, I really wanted a Kuhn Rikon but the WMF Perfect Plus 8 quart seems like a logical choice. However, I have never used a pressure cooker. So if you say RUN from that brand and stick to the Kuhn Rikon I will. Thanks for all of your help! God bless you!

I defy anyone to find a better fuel source other than solar in which that can be done for the same low price as a can of butane.
