X-Pot

Cooking pots can be the bulkiest and awkward item to fit into your pack. Sea To Summit's X-Pots are collapsible, fully-featured cooking pots that combine the heat distribution of aluminum with the flexibility of silicone. The hard-anodized aluminum base offers a fast boil time and the stainless steel ring embedded in the rim turns the silicone walls into an exceptionally rigid structure for easy lifting and stirring. The real beauty of X-Cookware is its ability to collapse and nest neatly with other pieces in the series into a small disc that can easily slide into a backpack, canoe bag, or camping box.

Features

• BPA free, heat resistant silicone – built to EU food-grade standards
• Hard anodized 6063-T6 aluminum base conducts heat really well for outdoor gourmet cooking
• Durable translucent strainer lid
• Stainless steel ring embedded in the rim provides stability
• Three sizes available; perfect when cooking for one or for groups up to six people

Can the X Pot...?

• Be used with a two-burner camp stove? Yes. The key is to keep the flame pattern of the burner inside the ring printed on the base of the pot (and keep the heat lower – the bases conduct heat really well).

• Be used with an induction stove? No. The X-Pot alloy base is not magnetic, so induction stoves won’t work. Caution is needed with high output radiant home/van stoves – the X-Pot can quickly boil dry if not watched.

• Be used on Domestic Stoves? Domestic stoves have a much higher output than backpacking stoves. If X-Cookware is used with a home stove, the flame setting should be kept low, and care should be taken to ensure that the pot does not boil dry.

• Be washed in a dishwasher? No. The caustic cleanser will damage the anodization. 

Best Use

The compactness of the X-Cookware (with X-Bowls, X-Mugs, an X-Kettle and an X-Brew nested inside) is unrivaled and is great for backpacking or bicycle/motorcycle touring.
