Wire Mesh Gauze Square - Ceramic Centre - Bunsen Burner Science Schools Laboratory

Someone on a youtube video doing wild camping suggested using one of these to spread the heat of a gas stove more evenly - makes sense. This product is a good strong mesh and also helps pans sit on the stove without slipping. Very good idea. It feels like quality, good value as it'll last for ever, in fact I think it'll get lost way before it wears out or breaks.

If you use this on top of a one ring burner camping stove, it adds loads more stability to the cooking surface, and you can control the flame more accurately, so it's ideal for simmering and slow cooking. Had mine a few years now & it's a great wee cooking hack for anyone that uses those type of portable gas cartridge stoves.

Bought for my campinggaz stove and was the perfect solution to the burners being too large for a percolator

Use this to attenuate heat on camping stove so as not to burn pan and bacon.

The smallest burner on our gas cooker seems to take an age to bring pans to the boil but also makes it hard to get a slow simmer going – once up to boil pans tend to simmer rather furiously and cause things to stick. This gauze brought back memories of Bunsen burners and tripods from chemistry lessons at school, and it does a good job at spreading the heat more evenly under the pan, producing a better simmer. I'm not sure I needed the ceramic area in the middle, and I do wonder if this will crack over time. I'd recommend not flexing the gauze at all. It smoked a bit on first use but is now fine. Probably just dirt and coatings burning off during the first use.

mint for spreading the heat on a camping stove no more burnt pan cakes

Does what it's supposed to do.

Good quality, happy
