It weighs 42g or 1 1/2oz and the stove weighs 31g or just over an ounce. I just finished and tested my first customer's kettle and it boiled 2 cups (16oz 474g) of 17C tap water in 3 mins 30 seconds using 13 grams of alcohol fuel. I think that's as fast as the quickest gas and canister stoves using a conventional pan set up isn't it? It has a thermal efficiency of 60% and has met all my targets for weight, speed, economy, and ergonomics. I can also make these using heineken keg cans with a slightly smaller capacity if they use the fast 1oz stove or a full 2 cups using my 4g lip balm pot stove. Boil time with the small stove is around 9 mins.\"\n\nvia [Make Your Own Gear » 2 cup Volcano kettle boils in 3 1/2 mins with 13g alcohol ! -- BackpackingLight.com Forums](http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=15404).","publishedAt":"2012-08-20T02:56:09.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-06-10T16:56:52.470Z","author":{"name":"Michael Janzen"},"categories":[{"name":"Products","slug":"products"}],"tags":[{"name":"beer kettle","slug":"beer-kettle"},{"name":"redneck kelly kettle","slug":"redneck-kelly-kettle"},{"name":"Volcano Kettle","slug":"volcano-kettle"}],"featuredImageUrl":null,"aeo":null,"site":{"name":"Homestead Style","url":"https://hscom.vercel.app"},"_links":{"canonical":"https://hscom.vercel.app/post/redneck-kelly-kettle","markdown":"https://hscom.vercel.app/post/redneck-kelly-kettle/llm.txt","json":"https://hscom.vercel.app/post/redneck-kelly-kettle/data.json"}}
