This Kettle boils 1.6 Liters (2.6 UK Pints) at a time and is the size traditionally used by Irish Anglers.
Suitable for Groups, Families, Car Camping, Scouts, Picnics, Garden Allotments, Hunters, 4 x 4 off-roaders, Disaster & Emergency Kits, Humanitarian Aid, or anyone working in the outdoors.
A Green Whistle has replaced the Orange stopper. This whistle will sound off when the water boils.
The Kelly Kettle even works in harsh weather conditions bringing water to the boil within a matter of minutes using whatever solid fuel is naturally occuring in the area - sticks, grass, pine cones, birch bark etc. No need to carry fuel. No running costs. Users have described these kettles as the 'Greatest invention of all time'. Essential camping equipment. Cost-free, carbon-neutral, eco friendly camping at its very best!
NOTE: Add our Pot-Support & Cook set to cook small amounts of food (Noodles, Rice, Oatmeal, Re-hydrated food, Soup, etc.) over the kettle while your water boils.
Better still, add our Hobo Stove accessory to turn the fire base of your kettle into an efficient stand-alone wood fuelled Camp Stove!
Since 01 October 2017 our Aluminium 'Base Camp' Kettles are Anodised. Anodisation is primarily used to toughen up the outer shell of the aluminum. The process creates an aluminium hydroxide layer on the surface of the metal which makes it harder and more resistant to scratches and scrapes.
Fire Base & Drawstring carrying bag are included as Standard with each Kelly Kettle. The durable steel fire base inverts up into the bottom of our kettles to make the unit as compact as possible for transport and storage.
Please note: The Kettle has been designed to boil water extremely fast in all weather conditions using very little fuel. When filled with water, the Kelly Kettle should always be carried upright to avoid any spillage/leakage from the water spout or chimney top.
Older Kettles may have an Orange Rubber or Cork Stopper. These MUST ALWAYS be removed before using the kettle. The Kettle must never be boiled with these older stoppers in the spout.

I used the large kettle on our Sahara trip 2 or 3 times every day to boil water for cooking and making soup, coffee and tea. It saved me in one month one bottle of 5 kg camping gas. I have tried all different materials to fire up the kettle including camel droppings! No problem at all. It is amazing to see how fast you can boil 1,5 litre water with just a little of wood and some camel dung.
