2) Once boiled, remove the kettle and place the Hobo Stove on the fire base to create a stable wood stove for use with any size pot or pan. Refuel the Hobo & Base with sticks etc, and cook for as long as you need!
3) Drop the 2 piece grill set onto the fire base to grill chops, steak, sausages, chicken, etc.. Or place a pot on the grill to do some simple cooking.
As there is no need to carry fuel, this kit will keep your pack light and save you money at the same time - never worry about running out of fuel again! All fit neatly within the kettle itself for transport or storage.
For more details on how best to use the various Pot/Base Support, Hobo Stove and Cook set accessories, please click HERE to see each one individually. Our FAQ page may also be helpful. If more than 1.6ltrs of water is required (this kettle will easily and quickly boil water for 10-14 people within a matter of minutes) simply refill the kettle with water and place it back on the firebase. Refuel the chimney again and your kettle will boil again within approx. 3-5 minutes.
Fire Base & Drawstring carrying bag are included as standard with each Kelly Kettle. The durable steel fire base inverts up into the bottom of our kettles to make the unit as compact as possible for transport and storage.
Please note: The Kettle has been designed to boil water extremely fast in all weather conditions using very little fuel. When filled with water, the Kelly Kettle should always be carried upright to avoid any spillage/leakage from the water spout or chimney top.
Older Kettles may have an Orange Rubber or Cork Stopper. These MUST ALWAYS be removed before using the kettle. The Kettle must never be boiled with these older stoppers in the spout.

Overall glad I bought it. I used some paper from some packaging and filled near full, it took about 10 mins to boil. Not as easy to clean as non stick but more durable and will last longer. I just ordered extra pot support to use on the base as well. Ideal for picnic ????. (Posted on 25/06/2022) - It's a must.

I've had it for almost two years now.
It's been everywhere from hot dry beaches to cold damp forests and it hasn't let me down once.

I bought one off you. Works great and is a very useful piece of equipment for power down situation. We have seen this recently, not just in Ireland, but Indian sub continent, Latin America and many countries. I have the security that if it happens here, my family n me will be fine. If power is out for whatever reason it runs by sticks! A real life saver and as you know excellent camping accessory for your kit. Your customer service is good and when ordering you can track delivery. 5/5.
Awesome. Thank you!

That's my kit. Packs small and plays big. Ive cut my general kit down to half and the kelly kettle is a big part of that. After a long day in the boat we pull up on the beach and within about ten min's Ive got hot tea and am ready to cook a can of beans. After you are done you got coals to start a fire with. I bought one, now my sons got one and most of my friends.
Best dam piece of kit Ive ever had! (Posted on 15/12/2016) - Was a GREAT stove!

I Live in British Columbia, Canada. I hunt and generally spend a great amount of time in the wilderness. It is in my car or backpack, everywhere I go.
I love your product.
Only thing I forgot was an extra bag. No worries. All fit in a large Camelback Water Pack, fuel and First Aid kit.
Great Work.

This is Chris and Alexandra John from Yellowknife, NWT. A friend told us about Kelly Kettle, and we've been hooked since. We travel weekly to remote locations and are in need of a hot meal and a bit of warmth. Nearly every Sunday we tend to explore the lands around here. We life in and explore the sub-arctic weekly.
Here are two photos:
The top one with the sunset is at Mirage Islands, Great Slave Lake on New Years Day. We had travelled as far as we could make in the 5 hours of sunlight, and needed a bit of of a break before we headed home.
The second one is on the last day of Moose Hunting Season - January 31st on the North Arm of Great Slave Lake. Although it was late in the day, we were cold and in need of some warmth and nourishment before we took the trek home.
We (and our friends) have been loving our Kelly Kettles. They burn great in these cold temperatures and the design roars them up to life in a couple minutes. We're still working on our ideal setup, but right now we:
- Light the KK, get it boiling for a meal. (make the meal ie. Backpackers pantry meal)
- Refill it, get it boiling for Tea. (a few large cups of whatever Tea we want) (we learned quickly to use insulated cups)
- Put the pot aside, and the hobo stove on, and use it for a fire. The rocket stove/bottom pot keeps the snow from affecting the fire, so we get a nice fire going. Now the snow doesn't melt and kill the fire at the base.
This is really good for us because with biofuel we don't need to bring any extra fuel, and we can never run out! Once we get any stage going, we can run it for however long we want because the fuel is always available!
I've been up North here for 18 years, and until the Kelly Kettle, haven't seen anything that compares. Thank you for making such a solid product at a good price! It has literally changed the way we spend our time out on the land. We're looking forward to many more years of exploration with your products supporting us.
Thanks for making such a good product that really helps us on our journeys.
Regards,
Chris and Alexandra John, NWT, Canada (Posted on 07/04/2016) - One cool piece of kit
