I put an order in last night for the set and I've just got a confirmation email saying it's been posted and will receive it tomorrow?

I ordered after you put this post up.

I think that I received the same confirmation email, before the one saying that I wouldn't be getting it.

Hopefully you will get yours.

Yes...

I use Bioethanol sometimes

And ,sticks on the ground ,I use a lixada stick stove that uses a trangia burner as a wet weather back up and UCO ,grill ,fire pit a lot...and before the thought police have a go ,both are used sensibly off the ground on stones to stop any marking or grass,or worse a wildfire. But yes ,I use free fuel on those..

I've tried the usual fuels for the Trangia burner but usually end up going back to gas with the gas burner to get away from the soot. Even the EKOFUEL bioethanol I've seen recommended as clean burning covers the pots, then your hands black.

Is there a liquid or gel fuel that burns soot free Wandle?

Honestly, I haven't found one fuel ,that is that burns clean..

But they say or some full on B,crafters I go with now and again is to put washing up liquid on the pan bases let it dry a bit and when you use it next it's meant to come off offski, easier..

But myself ,if you look at my 30 yr old 27 ul in my avatar, it looks mint on the outside and inside of the windshields that's autosol,anyway I embrace the blackness,I just make sure the inners ,of the frying and other cooking pots are clean,I use warm water,n grass ,I'm not a bit bothered about black exterior as its provenance, part of lots of fishing ,and hidden camps on moors..just wipe the exterior of the pots ,with free ,non product grass and leave,put away til next micro adventure..

Frying pan ,wipe the base of with cooking oil let it dry ,buff it up to a shine ,job done...

I tried gas,...I lost kudos ,and membership of the Trangia massive for that misdemeanour..

There is also a world of difference tween the new trangias,they not so well made,thinner material..

I'm not fussed about the pans being black. As you say, they look well used. It's my coal miner hands the next day at work. They are as much of a giveaway as the Heathrow flight path on phone calls that you've been fishing when you should have been working
