The overview applies to a single stove and one person, cooking an average amount of freeze-dried food including coffee and tea breaks. For two people and a single burner stove, increase comsumption by about 50 % in winter. The levels of consumption specified above should be considered as guidelines. Variations can be expected depending, amongst other things, on the wind, temperature, number of people and type of food. Protection from the wind is of the outmost importance to keeping the consumption at a low level. Winter consumption includes melting snow. Pots equipped with heat exchangers help to increase fuel efficiency and reduces fuel consumption (approx. 50%). This means less packaging weight and volume as well as lower carbon dioxide emissions.

Summer

• 1 Day: 100 g Gas = 0,1 L Liquid Fuel
• A weekend: 230 g Gas = 0,3 L Liquid Fuel
• A week: 2 x 230 g = 0,8 L Liquid Fuel

Winter

• 1 Day: 230 g Gas = 0,2 L Liquid Fuel
• A weekend: 450 g Gas = 0,6 L Liquid Fuel
• A week: 450 g + 230 g = 1,5 L Liquid Fuel
