Jetboil Group Cooking System with 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot

Jetboil Group Cooking System with 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot description

The Jetboil Group Cooking System includes a burner with built-in igniter, 1.5 liter pot, pot support, and stabilizer that all fit into one compact unit offering incredible efficiency and usability. The Group Cooking System (GCS) uses Jetboil's FluxRing on its neoprene-insulated pot to enable 75% heat efficiencynearly twice that of a conventional camp stove. This incredible stove boils 12-liters of water with a tiny 100g butane canister. Plus, the auto-igniter and adjustable flame allow you to simmer food instead of just boiling water. The Group Cooking System's wide-armed stabilizer increases versatility by allowing you to use non-Jetboil pots, as well.

I have been using the GCS for about a year and a half now. I would recommend this for anyone. It has worked well at altitude and in the winter. A single canister lasted through a 5 day winter trip cooking 3x's a day for two. We made everything from stew to pasta to boiled eggs & pancakes. It was excellent for a quick cup of tea in the afternoon, very fast! I do agree that the cover is a HUGE hassle to put back on after awhile. Even when I do get it on, every now and again it will come off in my pack making it a huge pain! It does need a pour spout, but at least the dribbles are easy to clean. I was a little leery of proprietary fuel cans, but so far I haven't had trouble finding replacements. Last note, the auto starter never worked after the first week but that is not really that big of a deal.

Works well with the Jetboil cooking system. It doesn't pull from the bottom of the canister though. We were able to make dinner at night and pancakes the next morning, but after that the fuel was pretty much gone.

Great stove, would recommend to the weekend camper. Looking forward to trying it in the winter.
