A Tale of Two Stove Systems, Part 1

The two stove systems that I hold dearest to my backpacking gear geek heart is the

  

Trangia 

and the Caldera Cone systems.

 Trangia and Trail Designs 12-10 stove

Both are primarily based on the alcohol fuel burner using a highly engineered wind screen to increase the efficiency of the system. One huge difference between these two systems is Trangia incorporates the design of the pots and pans, while the Caldera conforms to a variety of different pots, depending on what is already in your gear closet. This difference is what I intend to explore so a trekker can continue to use what I consider fun to use, not necessarily the winner of efficiency, function and  lightness.
