The amazing small size of the Kraku lightweight camping stove

First use of the Alpkit Kraku Backpacking Gas Stove

By Kenny Stocker

Overall (so far) I am very pleased with the Alpkit Kraku stove – it is very small and light. Well made and efficient – boiling a mug of water significantly quicker then if I had used my meths stove. Because it is so light I may be changing my backpacking habits and using a gas stove more than the ultralight Vargo titanium meth stove I currently use.
