Frequently asked questions

What size camping gas canister should I buy?

The 113g canister suits solo weekend trips where pack weight matters most. The 227g is the best all-round size, covering a long weekend to a week of solo cooking or a weekend for two. The 450g is for extended trips or group cooking where you are boiling large volumes. A 227g canister provides roughly 60 minutes of burn time at medium output, though cold temperatures reduce efficiency.

Are MSR gas canisters compatible with other stove brands?

Yes. MSR IsoPro canisters use the standard EN417 threaded valve, which fits the vast majority of screw-top canister stoves from other brands including Primus, Jetboil, Coleman and similar. They are not compatible with Campingaz bayonet-fitting stoves or stoves that require proprietary cartridges.

How do I know when a camping gas canister is empty?

The simplest method is to weigh it — the empty weight is stamped on the base of the canister, so subtracting that gives you remaining fuel. You can also float it in water: a full canister sinks, a partially used one floats higher, and an empty one floats near the surface. Do not shake a canister to estimate remaining fuel by sound alone as this is unreliable.

How should I dispose of empty camping gas canisters?

Empty canisters must be punctured before recycling to release any residual pressure, then they can go in metal recycling. Do not put pressurised or unpunctured canisters in household recycling bins. Many outdoor retailers and campsites provide canister puncturing tools. Never incinerate or crush a canister that may still contain gas.
