Pressure Cooker - 10/31/08 03:36 PM
Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking for a lightweight 1-2 litre pressure cooker preferably hard anodised.
The Magma Force Backpacking Pressure cooker looks ideal but does any one know if it is in production or available for retail. It appears to even have a heat exchanger on the base similar to the excellent Primus Etapower pots.

Designing a and manufacturing a lightweight pressure cooker with a high safety factor appears to be quite a challange.
The GSI (Manufactured in China), Hawkins, Prestige and Premier (manufactured in India) brand pressure cookers are just to heavy for backpacking, although they would be fine for car camping.
