Half-decent flask does me (still mourning the loss of my favourite most heat-retaining flask ever).
Minimalism is where it's at.

Theres pocket rocket clones about for around half the price, or if you like spending money theres the optimus crux. On a day ride i'll generally use a small flask or drink water.

Primus Spider Express - amazing stove. Had one for a year now and it's super fast, very economical on gas too so you only need small cartridge.
I got mine for about £35. Bargain performance for that price

kelly kettleThey are remarkably good, bit of a techique to getting them going but thereafter very quick to boil. Bit bulky for a bike I would have thought compared to the MSR and a metal cup.

Jetboil

+1 for the jetboil

Pocket Rocket + any reasonable size ti mug + C100 100g gas canister.
All fits in the mug, just add water.
I can get my brew on in less than five minutes.
Tastes good and if I take some noodles I get hot food instead of a squashed sandwich.Posted 1 year ago # -
I also have a Jetboil, really good bit of kit, boils water so fast, but a bit big for the 'small and light' requirement?
under 300gms for the Kovea and a C100 cartridge

Have you used the stove much? Does it seem made to last?Posted 1 year ago # -
Trying a bit hard if you take a stove for a day ride. Technology has brought us containers that retain heat rather than having to carry fire with us.
