Trangia’s B25 is a small alcohol burner for an appropriately matched cookset. It has few parts and is easy to pack with a compatible Trangia windscreen and pot support. It works best when you plan simple meals and can tolerate a slower cooking pace.

Consider the complete cookset

The burner is one part of a system. Count the windscreen, support, pot and permitted fuel when comparing weight and bulk with a canister setup. The simmer ring offers some control, while conditions and cookware affect how predictable the heat is.

Check the site rules and the meal plan

Follow Trangia’s instructions and local restrictions on stove use. Use it outdoors in a suitable location and allow the burner to cool completely before handling or refilling. Its main appeal is a straightforward design for compatible cookware. If fast boils or frequent group cooking are your priority, consider how the whole cooking system will perform.
