Another option is use when I need another quart for extended trips, is the Coleman Brand Premium fuel containers. There usually sold where you get the familiar Coleman gallon cans. I get mine at the local K-Mart.

They sell a premium quart container that's Plastic. Similar in shape to a dry-gas bottle. The price is reasonable considering your getting the best fuel, and your getting a serviceable container for the price. I've used mine for a couple of trips, refilling out of the cheaper gallon can.


I thought of using the 32oz. bottle that the gas came in but I thought that would be a rookie mistake (which I am, not a mistake but a rookie). I bought 2 of the bottles at the Wal-Mart. I used one to fill the stove (coleman two burner) and figured I would leave the other one sealed until I needed it. The bottle shouldn't leak from the cap because of the seal but I could pucture the bottle itself. I'm crossin' my fingers. I know the two burner is way to heavy but I'm young and willing to give it a try this one time. Now, is the full stove and the extra full 32oz. bottle enough gas for a six day trip in a week? It's four people but the other two have their own stove.
