Hello all.
Does anyone know what the internal diameter of the MSR titanium kettle (one of these: http://www.cotswoldoutdoor.com/msr-t...?id_colour=180) is?
I'd like to know if I can sit my water bottle inside it.
Cheers
P.S. Just had a look around. Does anyone know the internal diameter of this one : http://www.backpackinglight.co.uk/po...ugs/SC121.html

Msr titan
At the top.. 112mm
At the bottom.. I guesstimate 107mm
Lovely. Nice prompt reply - much appreciated. Cheers.
But now I'm more interested in the second one rather than the MSR. I'd like to know if I can fit a 1L nalgene type bottle inside (which has an external diameter of 90/91mm). The specifications say the pot has a diameter of 95mm, but doesn't say whether that's internal or (most likely) external. And I notice it has a rolled lip and I don't know how many mm's that is taking up.
I note that it also claims to have the same dimensions of the Vargo Ti-Lite mug, which is designed for a 1L nalgene bottle to fit inside. But I'd be happier hearing from someone who knows before shelling out the cash.

In case you want a nice snug fitting food bowl for the MSR Titan kettle? The plastic bowl in the picture is one of those tubs you get in amusement arcades at the seaside. IIRC i also have a large Cornish clotted cream tub (Roddas?) which ain't far off
I assume Alpkit are still out of stock?

Yup !
Hold yer horses young man and check out when its back in stock. They used to have that feature on their website.
Oh yes, good call that man!Originally Posted by suggy
The only bugger is that I need one before next weekend...
I'll give Alpkit a call on Monday - never know, they may be back in stock or they may have the odd one lurking around somewhere. Nothing to lose by phoning.

Did you get one?
Not from Alpkit, no.
I phoned them but they were out of stock with no idea when they'd be getting them back in.
So I got the one from Backpacking Light instead! Faultless service (even got a free pack of Skittles) - ordered on the Tuesday afternoon, delivered Wednesday morning.
And the pot/mug is exactly what I wanted. The bottle sits in it perfectly. My brew kit is now a whopping 250g lighter. Now, if only someone was to invite a lightweight version of water. Hmm...maybe a dehydrated version - all you have to do is add water to rehydrate it...
