Grandma vs. Snow Peak: Battle of the Cups

Here's something fun. Grandma vs. Snow Peak: Battle of the Cups.



Which one weighs more? Snow Peak's 450 titanium cup (expensive) or Grandma's tin springhouse dipping cup (free by way of inheritance)? Both hold same amount of liquid.

Grandma's = 2.1 oz.
Snow Peak = 2.4 oz.

Plus the squat shape of Grandma's cup fits inside my MSR ti kettle with lid in place, whereas the 450 mug does not.
----------------
Wanna see how it fits together for alcohol setup? Too bad, I’m showing you anyway.



Cook kit = 9.7 oz.
Fuel bottle holds 9 oz. of denatured alcohol.

OK, here’s what’s inside . . .



MSR ti kettle + lid, kettle kozy + lid, tin cup, wind screen, t-light tin, pot stand, Dr. Bronners, matches, scrungy, stove base, rubber band, fuel bottle.
