Camping kettle GSI Outdoors Glacier Stainless Tea Kettle 1 L stainless steel

The GSI Outdoors Glacier Stainless Tea Kettle 1 L is a compact stainless steel camping kettle designed for boiling water and brewing tea during outdoor activities. With a one-liter capacity, the kettle balances lightweight portability and usable volume, making it suitable for solo hikers and small groups. Its stainless construction provides corrosion resistance for use over camp stoves and open flames, while a shaped spout and handle enable controlled pouring.

Its 1 L capacity is large enough for multiple cups yet small enough to heat quickly on backpacking stoves. The integrated spout and handle give predictable flow and safer handling when pouring hot water. The design is simple and easy to clean, with no unnecessary parts that can trap residue.

How to use

Fill the kettle with the desired amount of water up to its indicated capacity, then place it on a compatible camp stove or over a controlled open flame. Heat until the water reaches a boil, watching to prevent dry heating. Use the handle and spout to pour hot water carefully; use protective gloves or a pot holder if the handle becomes hot. After use, allow the kettle to cool before cleaning. Rinse with water and, if necessary, use mild detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the stainless surface.

Usage recommendations

For safe and long-lasting performance, avoid leaving the kettle empty on a heat source, let it cool before packing, and store it dry to minimize corrosion risk. When using over open flames, place the kettle on an appropriately sized grill or support to keep it stable.
