We recently did our first wild camp in a wee while and we took along some new and some old kit. Just thought I'd share a quick evaluation of some of them.
Stove:
I've never been keen on unstable canister-top stoves and would rather take a heavier one with a remote reg - we have a ThermoTech. The primary source of hot water for brews is a Jetboil. It's blinkin' marvellous; we even take it to France for extended trips as our kettle.
Cleaning porridge out of a pan when you only have cold water and no kitchen is a pain, yet I like a hot brekkie. I got round this by getting some boiling bags from Lakeland Plastics and taking a couple of clippits. Stick 2 sachets of ready-sweetened Oat-so-Simple in a bag, slop in some hot water (guess the volume as twice the sachet size), seal the clippit round the top and insulate it, Keep squishing it now and again, and 5 minutes later you have scrummy oats with no microwave and no pan to wash. Works for instant noodles, too.
