Hi - I have been deciding on what type of camping stove to buy for months now and as we are going away soon I need to make a decision. I keep coming back to the Coleman Duel fuel stoves and just wondered if anybody knows how long the Aspen fuel lasts? We are away for 4 weeks in August (2 adults 2 children) and will be cooking on it daily. I just wondered vaguely how quickly we would get throught 5l. Also does anyone know how easy it is to purchase Aspen fuel on the continent?

Thanks

5 litres of unleaded will last us the 4 weeks that we go for but maybe we cook less than you??????

We usually only take a minimal amount to see us through the first couple of days then buy 5 litres when fueling the car. After all, the petrol is cheaper there anyway. It's also so easy to top up if you do need any more whilst away.

We do have an electric kettle for hot water.
