The original New Zealand Made Thermette.
Invented in NZ by John A Hart in 1929!
The Thermette delivers boiling water quickly because the proven design uses a unique cone-shaped internal wall so that heat is distributed to a large surface area surrounded by water, while simultaneously funneling heat up to the top where a pot or frying pan can be used for cooking. All that is required is a good supply of dry twigs and a lighter (a bit of fire accelerant never goes amiss if you are in a hurry or have wet conditions)
Thermette is proudly made in New Zealand

My Nan took one of these everytime we went to the river, fishing, swimming, both good memories.
I cannot wait to use. I i especially like the top for extra cooking options.
Great little way to make a quick meal and a decent cuppa coffee.
When I was a kid we always had a thernette in the car for a cuppa. Now Dwights have this improved copper version. Ordering was simple and package arrived in good time.
Did I need to buy one, no. I have a gas stove, a multi fuel cooker and even an electric jug. So why the hell would I need a thermette. It is part of NZ history, is still made in NZ and just bloody cool. Use it every night, put the phone away and just have a quite brew before bed. Bloody great.
Haven’t used it yet, but it looks well made and will be a great help in times to come
