Snow Peak Single Wall Cup 600

I chose the Snowpeak 600 titanium mug for its compact size and weight (2.8oz.) for my light solo cooking setup. I use the mug with a Pepsi can stove and aluminum windscreen on my solo trips into the backcountry. The mug is used in the pack to carry all my cooking items including stove and windscreen. I am very pleased with it and it works flawlessly. It is also impressively strong for it's weight. I have used the mug for over 60 meals, each starting with boiling 600ml of water. Although the mug handles are in the flame of my setup during part of a stove run, which means a pot holder (bandanna) will be required, the handles cool quickly enough that by the time you have the meal prepared the mug can be used without getting burned by touching it. The Snowpeak 60 ml mug works so well that three family members expressed an interest in receiving a mug/stove combination for Christmas after seeing it perform just once.

I just returned from 2 weeks backpacking (mainly) in Big Bend NP. I opted for the 600mL cup over the 450mL and am very glad I opted for the larger size, which allowed me to boil 16 ounces of water which most of my dehydrated meals required.
I didn't have the problem of having to use a potholder when lifting the cup off the fire. While it certainly got warm and was at times exposed to the flame, I found that it cooled to a temperature virtually immediately which allowed me to pick it up without burning myself.
I wouldn't say that it's indestructible as the bottom of mine had a few very small dents in it it. I'd also be concerned that it might fold up on you if much pressure was applied laterally to it, but overall it seems quite strong given its weight.

The Snow Peak 600 titanium cup exceeded my expectations. After much searching and contemplation I settled on this cup to serve my day hiking needs for eating and drinking. I took it with me while hunting in northern Ontario last month because I am out all day and like to travel as light as possible. I couldn't get over how light it was. I packed my Brunton burner, some powdered soup, tea and sugar in it which saved room. The folding handles made it easier to pack. I cooked everything in the cup. There was almost no heat transfer to the handles so as soon as I turned off the burner I was able to pick the cup up. NOTE: if your getting one to cook with make sure it is a single walled cup! This is a great item.

I highly recommend this one. The large capacity is great, it allows the cup to double as a small pot (Use the single wall version!). It's durable, weighs almost nothing, and is quite versatile - I use mine to scoop granola, eat meals from, cook with, heat water for tea or cocoa, etc. I recommend the single wall version for a few reasons: You can use it over a stove or other open flame; It costs less; It weighs less; and if you use it while winter camping, you'll want the cup to warm your hands. Ever try drinking from a mug while wearing big mitts? Get the single wall one.

Also, for those camping with a buddy who doesn't drink as much as you do, the 450 ml cup fits nicely inside the 600 ml one.

they weren't joking about this being light! big enough to eat cereal/soup and it wakes you up by filling up w/ a ton of coffee! I have also used this on top of a proprane burner and it worked well. no discoloring or warping. this cup is my new camping companion. love the little mesh sack that it comes in too, perfect for traveling so that it will not get damaged in your pack or if you want to combine other things w/ it for packing.

handles get very hot to touch (this was expected) but the titanium itself cools very fast when removed from flame. This is expecially good to be able to drink from when making warm beverages. It would be useful if it came with graduated fluid volume marks inside the cup. I scratched my own marks inside instead. Overall very good quality & would buy again.

The SnowPeak 600 titanium mug is an ultralight-backpacking standard. At 600ml/20oz (weight is just 80g/2.8oz), it has just enough capacity to boil water for a dehydrated dinner (most trail meals need 16 ounces of water to rehydrate). An Esbit folding stove will fit inside, as will most of the smaller cartridge stoves. Of course it is an indestructible mug as well.

It's great for those who want
something thats different from the
humble and boring ikea-style mug.
And because of its size it is
difficult to bump into it on
the table and cause a mess. Unless
you really want to ;-)
As coffee gear goes, it rocks!

Love it! I haven't used it backpacking yet, but I use it all the time at home. The nice large base has eliminated all my knocked over cups of tea. I might get a second one to keep with my gear.

This is a great cup. Light weight and fits plenty o fluid. Easy to clean and no unpleasant aftertastes that some metal or plastic cups have. Packs easy too. Fits plenty of tea bags.
