How To Use A Storm Kettle
A storm kettle can provide you with hot water, and fire, when camping in bad weather conditions. Also known as a Kelly Kettle, this will provide much needed warmth on wet camping trips.
Step 1: Fill with water
Fill the outer skin of your storm kettle with water
Step 2: Fire
Light a fire in the kettles hollow centre, and feed it gradually through the top with twigs, or other fuels.
Step 3: Pour
When the water boils, pour your drink by lifting on the string at the kettles base.
Enjoy the warmth of the kettles fire. This is ideal in poor weather conditions, when lighting a fire would otherwise be very difficult.
