Outdoor Retailer – BioLite
Friday, August 2nd, 2013
Next month, BioLite will officially launch the KettlePot but you’re getting a sneak peek thanks to Outdoor Retailer. Unlike other pots on the market, the BioLite KettlePot is made from Stainless Steel but they’ve developed a process to stretch it to be super thin so it will heat more quickly. Additionally, it can be used as a kettle or pot.
It includes a BPA-free top and cool-touch silicone handles. What I really like about it, the KettlePot cradles the BioLite stove for storage and transport.
