Skunk you´re right. You can´t cook in them. Kelly or Ghillie kettle is more common name for that kind of kettles but they are also brands like the Storm Kettle. Trumby might know the Australian version of the design.

I was surprised how fast that thing is. And after you get the fire going (quite easy because of the strong draft) you can use moist twigs. No, I´m not saying they are good nor can you pick them up from a pond but from the ground and snow as I did.

They do sell cooking ware for these but they are quite small. My main goal was to get the water boiling so I can use it for expedition food, coffee, tea, etc. The fire in the kettle is very strong so it will heat up the base so you must be extra careful when using this in dry time.

This one is aluminium with black paint. I ordered this because it had a little bigger water volume than the similar sized Kelly`s. The diameter is 14cm.
