Ultralight and extra-long for reaching into dehydrated meal pouches.
If you’ve used a long utensil before, you already know.
For the uninitiated, let us introduce the Titan Long Spoon, a small but mighty step towards a better backcountry experience.

- Thoughtful Design: Spoon bowl is sized for comfortable mouthfeel.
- Carry Loop: Clip on a carabiner for on-the-go hang-ability.

What are the properties of titanium vs. aluminum vs. stainless steel?
- Aluminum is the cookware of choice for all-around backcountry use. It conducts heat evenly, is easy to clean when hard anodized and even easier when coated with a nonstick finish. It is also extremely efficient.
- Stainless steel is very durable; perfect for when your pots take a lot of abuse. It lies somewhere between aluminum and titanium in terms of its cooking ability/suitability.
- Titanium cookware's biggest advantage is its light weight. Titanium pots are ideal for boiling water, because they can be made with very thin walls and transfer heat very efficiently. They tend to develop hot spots, however, making them less than ideal for cooking temperature-sensitive foods like eggs or pancakes.
- Cookware's efficiency is also dependent on its color and material. Our testing has found that darker pots (esp. the bottom) are the most fuel efficient. Older cookware, which blackens through use, becomes more efficient than new cookware.
Will my MSR stove fit into my MSR cookset?
- The SimmerLite™, WindPro™, PocketRocket® 2, PocketRocket® Deluxe, and SuperFly™ stoves are small enough to fit in an MSR 1-liter pot. Both PocketRocket stoves will also fit in the Titan™ Kettle 900mL and the Titan Cup 450mL. All other MSR stoves with a flexible fuel line will fit into all MSR cooksets that are 1.5 liters or larger, except the DragonFly™ stove which fits in a 2L pot or larger. The older MSR XGK™ stove will not fit inside a cookset because of its rigid fuel line. The stove and fuel bottle will however fit nicely in the side pocket of most backpacks.
Can I use my cookware directly on a fire?
- Stainless steel pots may be used over open fire—with caution. You should expect some soot, and if you place the pot in too hot of an environment, some warping.
- We do not recommend use of our aluminum or titanium cookware over open fire because they feature some plastic parts that could melt.
Why do MSR Alpine Pot Set lids have tabs on the sides?
- Original MSR Alpine cooksets were sold with a strap to hold them together, rather than a stuff sack. When we designed the MSR Panhandler™ pot lifter, we did it with two upright tabs on the top of the pot lifter, which allow you to lift your pot lid by this tab. Our latest cookware has an attachment on the side that accepts our new, quick-release Talon™ pot handle, eliminating scratches on the inside of nonstick cookware while providing a secure, no-squeeze grip. It also folds to lock nested sets together.
What's the best way to wash MSR cookware?
- All components except aluminum cookware are dishwasher safe. We recommend using a liquid detergent. Aluminum cookware should be hand-washed to prevent damage to the cookware’s surface.
