BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2
Folding stainless steel multifuel stove
Gas canisters fail in frost, are banned from aircraft and are often empty after years in an emergency kit. The BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 burns solid fuel tablets, gel or dry spirit – just 40 g, 7 × 5 × 4 cm and practically indestructible.
Buy the BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 – the ultralight stainless steel multifuel Outdoor stove
The BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 is a folding stainless steel Outdoor stove for solid and gel fuels: FireDragon tablets, hexamine (Esbit), dry spirit and gel fuel. Measuring 7 × 5 × 4 cm and weighing just 40 g, it fits in any trouser pocket, first-aid kit or survival kit. Unfolded, the side wings act as windshield and pot stand for mugs and small pots up to about 700 ml; one FireDragon tablet brings around 500 ml of water to the boil in 8–10 minutes. The built-in compartment holds two tablets – but the stove is supplied without fuel, so you order the tablets separately. The MK2 is the revised version of the BCB classic with a sturdier build and cleaner finish.
Where gas canisters fail
Stainless steel solid fuel stove – works in frost, at altitude and after years in storage
Butane stops vaporising properly at around 0 °C, canisters are banned on aircraft and lose pressure over the years – in an emergency kit that means empty exactly when you need them. The BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 has no valves, no seals and no pressure vessel: tablet in, light it, cook. Solid fuels ignite even below freezing and store practically indefinitely. The honest trade-off: the heat output is lower than a gas stove, the flame cannot be regulated, and the fuel has to be bought separately – the box contains the stove only.
Fuels & heat output of the BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2
The stove works best with BCB’s FireDragon solid fuel: ethanol-based, non-toxic, almost odourless and low in soot. One tablet brings about 500 ml of water to the boil in 8–10 minutes; for a full meal of pasta, rice or trekking food, allow two tablets. Alternatively, the stove burns hexamine (Esbit), dry spirit or gel fuel. Petrol, diesel and other liquid fuels with a low flash point are not suitable – the open design rules them out. No fuel is supplied with the stove. You will find the matching supply in the shop as the FireDragon Bio Solid Fuel 6-Pack.
What is the BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 made for? – from emergency kit to bikepacking
The MK2 is the right choice when weight, pack size and reliability matter and a gas stove is too bulky or too fragile: in a bushcraft or survival kit, on multi-day trekking trips, when bikepacking, in the emergency supplies in your car or cellar, and in an EDC set. With a stock of tablets you have a hot meal or a cup of tea even when power and gas are gone. If you cook daily for several people or want fine flame control, a gas or spirit stove will serve you better – the MK2 is the minimalist for emergencies and quick trail meals.
What the BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2 does – and what it doesn’t
It does: heat water for tea, coffee, soups and trekking food, hold mugs and small pots up to around 700 ml securely, shield the flame from wind and carry two tablets for the trail. It doesn’t: offer an adjustable flame, cook for groups or run on liquid fuel. And it is no substitute for fuel: without separately purchased tablets the stove stays cold. Use it outdoors only or under a well-ventilated tarp – every burn produces carbon monoxide, so tents, vehicles and enclosed rooms are off limits. Place the stove on a heat-resistant, level surface and keep clear of flammable material.
Care & storage of the BCB FireDragon Mini Stove MK2
After cooking, let the stove cool down completely, then wipe it out with a dry cloth or paper. For heavier residue, clean with warm water and mild soap and dry thoroughly. Stainless steel does not rust with normal care; soot marks come off carefully with fine steel wool. Store tablets in an airtight container, separate from the stove – that keeps the fuel ready for years and the stove clean.
