Hi guys, i'm after suggestions for the best Autumn/Winter stove gas. I'm sick of waiting ages once it gets colder for the kettle to boil! TIA

Does your stove have a preheater tube across the burner ? You will find that stoves will burn better in winter with a pre heater tube , I use a Bulin T4 with standard Coleman 70/30 butane propane mix gas canisters available at most online tackle shops cheap , there's only the odd time I have had to turn the gas cannister upside down to get the gas/fluid to flow

The Coleman Extreme gas is very good at low temperatures, but a little trick is to take a small flask with you and fill it with freshly boiled water once you get there. Keep the water in the flask warm & if the gas starts to lose pressure, place the can in a bait box or bucket, etc and pour the hot water from the flask in to the bucket so it warms the can up. You will then get maximum pressure back almost instantly as well as hearing the liquid gas in the can "boil". Makes a massive difference in performance especially if the canister is almost empty.

If you can find the adaptor you can refill the Coleman canisters with propane. That doesn't bother with the cold.

I do something similar, I take the lid off the kettle and put the canister on top.
It works!
