The outside of the non stick pan is not non stick, just black aluminum. No issues with denting my non stick or HA.
I treated myself to a nonstick pod for my T27 a while ago and it came with thick polythene disk to protect the cooking surface when everything is packed away. So far it’s done an excellent job. Bit like the yellow bag the burner comes in, you just have to make sure it doesn’t blow away when you’re cooking. Regards John
I am admittedly not a lightweight cycle camper therefore a few extra oz's on luxuries I've never bothered about. A SS two pot plus pan set I bought many yeats ago was put aside due to SS pan being terrible at frying. Solution is now a small Alu non stick pan from a supermarket with the handle cut off, they are £3 or so, it fits the pot set like a glove. (Note to self, weigh the two pans)
Being mostly a boil-in-the bag guy, because winter dish-washing out on the land are such a challenge, I am leaning towards a Trangia 25 HA, with the HA windscreens as well, as the stove is used during wildlife observation. Then fell upon the Swedish Mess Kit M-40, which is about the same weight, will do 2 boil in the bag entrés, and, though composed of Swedish windscreen and Hungarian lower and upper pot, does nest...but it is all-aluminum...the real Swedish ones with convienently olive-drab painted pots have become scarce on the Bay of.... To complicate matters the T-25HA is available on that place named after a major river in South America for which I have a gift certificate! Hm...
