Baking a Chicken with the SilverFire Scout!

     The economy 3 prong pot support SilverFire® Scout is a lightweight wood-fired gasifier stove, that operates on just on twigs or flammable biomass. It is an ultra compact gasifier design intended for minimalist backpacking or bug out application. It is designed to be used with small solo sized pots down to 2.5" in diameter or other larger backpack trekking cookware. The recommended weight for the Scout is approximately 3 lb / 1.5 Kg small pots. This translates to small cookware designed to heat a quart or liter of water. This stove is not designed for large family cookware, such as our Dragon Pot. Consider one of our larger portable stove models for family sized meals. Please see stove accessories for the MSR Alpine Stowaway pot or fire starter combo kit option offered for sale on our website. The backpack shown in photo is for combo stove kit size reference and is not included in the sale. The Scout Stove includes a black nylon bag with drawstring.

     Finally the perfect TLUD* compact stove for backpacking or bug out bags. This all stainless steel stove's state-of the art design blends practical technology, durable materials, safety, and ease of use. This listing is for the SilverFire Scout stove only. All cookware is shown to educate consumer on size and compact nesting design of the SilverFire Scout backpack / bug out bag stove. Please go to our Stove Accessories page to view the MSR Alpine Stowaway pot we offer for the SilverFire Scout. The compact Scout design nests in the MSR pot perfectly for travel. It is the must have companion for the SilverFire Scout. This stove could save your life in the field. Our simple modular nesting stove is the diameter of a CD and the profile is only 2 & 1/2" tall when collapsed and stowed in our nylon bag. The Scout TLUD is a leading compact gasifier stove design (vs bulkier Solo, BioLite, Bush Buddy, & Wood Gas stove options). While other nesting gasifiers may appear similar at first glance, only the Scout has a protective ash plate below the combustion chamber floor, to ensure safe operation and control of live embers. Ensure you are ordering the stove with our easy recognizable flame shaped ventilation holes. Nesting stoves with square or round ventilation holes do not incorporate our important safety ash plate design found below the combustion chamber. Our simple stove design does not use fragile spring wire pot support system that can leave your stove inoperable in the field. We use a refractory stainless steel grate floor, not simple refractory wire. Wire grate combustion chamber floors are fragile compared to our stainless steel plate floor. We do not have thin wire in our combustion chamber design that can snap or break.

We are receiving reports from owners of stoves with wire grates that snapping and failing in the field when fuel is inserted into the combustion chambers or during cleaning. Fortunately they have been able to replace their stove with our superior, simple, and more compact design.

     You are only limited by your imagination. Here is an example of waffles on the Scout below. We found a salesman's 1910 Wagner Cast Iron Sample Wagner Iron. In the 1900's salesmen would carry this miniature sample into department stores to show the buyer the new model that year and take orders. We decided to give it a try. Since the diameter was small we use a piece of flat perforated stainless to support the cast iron waffle base. It worked fine!

     The SilverFire® Scout is designed for minimalist cookware (lightweight, medium diameter backpack type pots & pans). It is not suitable for small diameter cups or cookware with a diameter of less than 2.5" or 6.35 CM or less (most small footprint cookware Stanley cup and other micro diameter MSR type small diameter cookware is fine). Large, heavy cast iron cookware is also not suitable for this stove. It is designed for backpack cookware and small pots. Typical time to boil for a liter of water is about 5 minutes using a lidded pot. The combustion chamber filled with loose packed twigs has a 20 to 30 minute burn time, tightly packed hardwood 45 minutes to more. Pellets burn for very extended time periods, up to 2 hours!

     Our factory makes every attempt to catch sharp edges or burs left from production. In the event there is an issue are more than happy to accommodate you. The thin gauge stainless steel is very easy to remove any sharp edges with a fine rasp, file, metal sanding pad, emory cloth, or sandpaper. In the event a stove does not meet your expectations, please return it to us and we are happy to replace it or detail it for you.

    Clean burning gasification is provided by natural draft ventilation. The stove produces high heat for a twenty minute burn with a single load of ordinary twigs. Longer durations are possible with more fuel or denser hardwoods. There are no moving parts, no electronics, and a zero post-manufacturing carbon footprint.
