Hello there! I’m a tea lover and I’ve always thought that having tea outside would be fun. I enjoy making tea in the Chinese gongfu manner, which calls for a little teapot or brewing apparatus loaded with plenty of tea leaves and several quick brews, frequently requiring up to a liter of water in one sitting.
For day treks, I just need a burner and kettle to bring water to a boil and maintain it there for around 30 to 45 minutes. What would you advise against? Regards
Soto thermostack + soto windmaster, msr pocket rocket or similar stove. All fits in its cozy and will hold a 110g fuel canister.
Just search for stuff like “backpacking kettle” and “backpacking stove” on Amazon. Here are some cheap and expensive examples.
For stoves, something like this or this.
You don’t need to keep the water boiling the whole time. Water takes a long time to cool. So you can just re-ignite the stove to bring it back to a rolling boil quickly as needed.

cool gaiwan! something to save pennies for
I use a backpackers stove and Stanley Adventure pot or GSI kettle to boil water for tea. Which I bring depends on how much room is in my “kitchen tote” (the Stanley pot is smaller). I only bring the water to boiling or just before for individual cups of tea and it only takes a couple minutes.
Are you boiling 30-40 minutes for one pot or over the length of your trip. Backpackers stove boil fast and have used the same fuel canister for an evening cup of tea for multiple day camping trips. If you need to boil 30-40 minutes per pot, I don’t know how long your fuel will last.
Although the Way cannot be named, this is the way.
