THE FOREST FUNDAMENTALS TITANIUM NESTING STOVE | SIGN UP BELOW TO BE GET NOTIFIED WHEN THE PRE-SALE BEGINS.

After six months of development, we're proud to finally introduce the Forest Fundamentals Nesting Stoves.

From the outset, we had two main objectives: to optimise the stove for multiple fuel types and to create a functional, space-saving nesting system.

Designing a multi-fuel stove was extremely important, as it would allow the stove to adapt to different terrains, trip lengths, and climates, and—most importantly—people's preferred fuel types.

The stove accommodates wood, solid fuel (esbit tabs, or hexamine tablets), and alcohol burners.

For all fuel types, countless design changes were made, focusing on two key testing parameters: fuel efficiency and reducing boil times.

At Forest Fundamentals, we spend a lot of time outdoors and understand the importance of efficient, organised gear systems. Our goal for the nesting system was to provide enough storage space to store all cook, fire, and water gear.

With everything fitting neatly inside the stove and it’s carrying bag, the whole system remains compact, accessible, and easily fits inside your pack or side pouch.

The air vent hole placement is designed to optimise the air-to-fuel ratio, ensuring efficient combustion, steady heat output, and controlled wood burning.

The size of the feeding port has been maximised for easy refuelling while limiting excess airflow. Wood can also be fed in from the top when pots or cups are not in use.

To prevent scorching the ground, the stove has an elevated ash pan plate that traps embers. The gaps between the stove legs allow for easy ash removal, preventing buildup during burning.

If it starts raining and you need to reposition the stove under a tarp or onto a rock for maximum heat output while cooking, you can do so while it's burning by sliding two tent pegs through the slots and using them as handles.

When using alcohol burners or fuel tabs, the cup or bottle height can be lowered to maintain the optimal distance from the flame source to ensure falser boil times.

Alcohol burners, or fuel tabs are positioned at the base of the stove, where reduced airflow naturally acts as a windshield, improving fuel efficiency.

The stove includes a titanium basin for solid fuel tabs. The basin contains any mess after melting and prevents the tabs from sliding around, localising the flame and reducing burn times.

Both fuel types ignite easily with a ferro rod, either from the top or through the main feeding port.

The stove's base stores multiple fuel tabs and an FF alcohol burner tin, secured by the removable ash pan plate. The stove's base doesn't fit all alcohol burners—please check the dimensions for reference.

The nesting system saves space by storing essentials like water bottles and cups inside the stove. While bulkier than flat-packed stoves alone, it takes up less space when combined with gear you already carry.

The stove nests with a standard 750ml cup and 32oz wide-mouth bottle—an already popular nesting combination it ensures compatibility with peoples existing gear.

We also believe the 750ml size offers the most flexibility outdoors. It provides a practical boiling capacity, requiring only 2-4 boils for a full day’s water supply for one person.

The 750ml size is also large enough for cooking and eating, removing the need to carry a separate eating tray.

The stove's base offers further storage for small items like ferro rods, fire tabs, or an FF alcohol burner tin, secured by the removable ash pan plate.

The upgraded stove bag also provides extra storage for essentials like LifeStraws, Millbank bags, and cotton rags, ensuring all fire, cook, and water gear fits in one system.

Unlike flat-packed stoves, it won’t bend or warp with use, and there’s no struggle to slot stiff parts together in the cold!

If you need two cups—one for coffee and one for food—a 300ml cup fits perfectly on top of the bottle, with the 750ml cup nesting below.

In the design of the stove, we have tried to accommodate peoples’ gear as much as possible. The stove works with popular alcohol burners including he Trangia, and common Titanium models.

The 750ml cup nests perfectly with various bottle designs, including 32oz wide-mouth bottles like Nalgene (stainless steel & plastic), Pathfinder wide-mouth bottles, and the Stanley Adventure series. It also fits Grayl filter bottles, though adding a bandana around the base is advised to prevent rattling.

Various cups/pots will also nest perfectly inside the 750ml size such as the TOAKS 375ml and 450ml Cup, or the TOAKS Titanium 370ml Double Wall Cup.
