Kettles and the tea test - what do other stovies use?

@Colin Geer & @Canuman

That kettle of mine is an Australian made quickboil kettle from the 1920s:

Tried the tiny Trangia kettle atop an Esbit stove with a Trangia alky burner. Although I don't favor the alky stove for anything beyond making a cuppa or perhaps doing a very simple breakfast, in this case it shines. It doesn't take a whole lot more fuel to boil a half-litre of water than it would take to prime a brassie, and you can hardly argue the simplicity or speed. I find that one 35mm film canister of "meths" gets two fairly good cups of tea.

Great little stove for occasional use.

 

This is my shop kettle.





. . . . and my everyday hiking pot.

@IvanN, what's that second one? It looks a bit like my MSR, but with a better spout.
