You will need a stove pot when using solid fuel in a Trangia stove. This pot has a specially designed lid that allows the fuel tablets to be lit directly on top of the pot. The flame from the burning tablet will then heat up the contents of the pot. The Trangia gel burner is a primary type of burner consisting of a cup with a lid used with gel or solid fuel. The cup is placed on top of the stove, and the fuel is inserted into the cup. The lid is then placed on top of the cup, and the gel or solid fuel is lit.Solid fuel tablets are the least common fuel used in Trangia stoves. They’re easy to use and provide a consistent, reliable heat source. However, they’re more expensive than other fuel types and can be challenging to find in remote areas.

Biofires burn more brightly: If cosy flames are what you’re looking for, biofires are much more effective than gel fireplaces. They produce a soft orange glow that can be adjusted to suit your tastes.

Most homeowners, therefore, install gel fuel fireplaces for their aesthetic value rather than their heat efficiency. A bioethanol fireplace would be a more efficient alternative here.
