Re: [Paddlewise] looking for a stove that can simmer

IMHO - As a long time Outback oven user, nothing I've found works as well as 
the liquid fuel Apex.  It will simmer and be stable under about any 
condition.  Since a lot of baking uses quite  a bit of fuel, I like the 
concentrated power of the liquid fuel.  The MSR Simmerlite is supposed to be 
good with the oven, I haven't tried it.

I have a concern about using the Outback Oven with any burner that is 
mounted on the fuel tank. I know people do it successfully, I still worry 
about overheating the fuel.
