Super 👍

Well built, price could have been less still happy with it.

I tried another, slightly less expensive burner twice. The first would not light and the replacement lit but did not burn cleanly (orange fuzzy flame instead of sharp and blue). This burner works as well now, more than 6 months after purchase, as on day one. Note that although this burner might be sold by Yama there are no markings indicating that Yama manufactured it. I suspect this is a standard piece of lab equipment by a company named Rekrow (the name that is stamped on the burner) that Yama resells, but who cares. A couple of tips on use, which others probably have already suggested: weigh the burner before you fill it and record the weight. Weigh it again after filling to see how much butane was loaded. The Amazon description says it holds 30-35 grams. I get around 29 at most of the time (your experience may vary). Then keep track of the weight after each of your first few uses. How many pots of coffee you get between butane refills depends on how much water you need to boil, if you preheat the water, how long you simmer the brew, and who knows what else. I usually brew about 12 ounces, use hot water from the tap, simmer for 2 1/2 minutes and get about five brews per refill. Not a lot, but it takes about 10 seconds to refill. As a side note, the density of liquid butane is 0.8 grams per ml, so a 300 ml can of butane should hold 240 grams, but there will be losses during refilling. I haven't tracked it properly but I think I get about 200 grams of usable butane per can. Hope this helps. Happy brewing! Update. It's now March 2019 and after daily use since purchase, burner works fine. Another update, July 2024. Originally purchased May, 2016, the burner is starting to show it's age. The spark is slowly getting weaker. Turning up the gas before sparking helps, but often I need to use a match or other flame to fire it up. Eight years, two months isn't too bad. PS - a long time ago I started bringing the water to a boil in a small tea kettle on the stove top and transferring it to my Hario siphon pot instead of using hot water from the tap. Cheaper, faster and just more efficient. I haven't calculated how many cups I get per butane refill, but it's much, much more than 5.

There isn't a button to contact the seller so please get in touch regarding a refund. The burner worked perfectly the first time I used it but stopped working after. The trigger doesn't click so the flame doesn't turn on. Gas levels are all ok so I think it has a faulty trigger.
