Army bowler - the best companion in hiking trips

The rapid rhythm of life, endless fuss and tension do not allow a person to fully relax. Even when coming home, he feels crazy fatigue and the only thing he wants is to rest. Sleep and do nothing.

However, even a long sleep can not bring that charge of energy and vivacity that gives fresh air to a person. Do not walk on the gassed streets of the metropolis, namely the fresh air of forests and fields that are outside the Moscow Ring Road. There is nothing better than getting together a family, a fun company and going out of town on a hike. Invariable helpers in such a journey will be an army kettle.

Attractiveness for buyers

Why is this accessory so popular among lovers of active or passive outdoor recreation? First and foremost, the army kettle (based on the name) was invented specifically for the military. Attributes and accessories that are issued specifically for people of this profession, have always been more attractive to buyers than travel accessories. Secondly, everything that was created for the army was created for use in extreme conditions: that is, objects are more convenient, practical and wear-resistant. Including the kettle army. The price of this accessory is much lower than the tourist analogue. This, in turn, also increases the level of attractiveness for consumers.

Benefits of using

This subject has a number of rather serious advantages. First, it is compact and convenient. It can be successfully attached to a backpack, carried in a hand or put in a bag. The lid fastening is arranged in such a way that the internal contents of the pot remain only internal: it does not leak out even when it is strongly shaken. This is the second positive moment. At the same time, the liquid or food keeps its heat for a long time. So we can say with all certainty that the army kettle has the property of heat capacity.

Of course, a connoisseur of the "beautiful" or a subtle aesthetic nature can be confused by the color of the khaki in which this object is painted, but for a real tourist the shade is unimportant. For him more weight have other interesting and important features, which are endowed with an army kettle. So, for example, its cover. In addition to direct use, it can be used as a deep plate, cup, scoop. Or even a frying pan. Using the lid for frying food, you need to add a little oil, then nothing burns. In this case, the absence of the opportunity to eat sitting is also taken into account: a comfortable handle that is attached to the lid of the kettle gives a chance to eat quietly, keeping this "plate" on weight.

Curved shape and operation of the kettle

The army kettle has a slightly odd shape: not oval or round, rather a form of bean. Aluminum "bean" is easy and convenient to hold, it is compact and well packed in a bag or backpack. In addition, a sandwich, a piece of bread or a fork with a spoon can be placed across the kettle or its lid, without fear that they will "drown" in food.

The kettle of army made of alimentary aluminum has very little weight. It is convenient to attach it over a fire or a burner. At the same time, the handle does not allow it to heat up on fire. The lack of a tank with water for washing the pot is also not a problem. The remainder of the lunch is easily cleaned with paper. This aluminum accessory is the prerogative of military units of the former USSR countries. In Europe, there are analogues of this subject. For example, the Swedish army bowler. Stainless steel (stainless steel) - the material from which the accessory is made. The main advantage is a longer service life. The negative aspects include weight (much higher than the aluminum "colleague"), a relatively high price and time required for cooking, which is an order of magnitude higher than that of the Soviet counterpart.

The volume of the army pot is about 1.5 liters. Therefore, it is easy to cook soup or porridge for two people. And hot tea, cocoa or coffee will be enjoyed by four. This subject is multifunctional and compact. Its low cost (from 120 rubles and above) and ease of use make the goods attractive for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts.
