Plastic lids for popular Cups/Pots on 09/28/2010 13:13:13 MDT Print View

Here are 3 plastic lids for 3 popular cups/mugs.

The lid for the Heineken pot is from a Penn tennis ball can.

The lid for the Snow Peak SP-600 mug is from a Folgers Coffee plastic jar.

The lid for the Snow Peak Mini Solo Titanium pot is from a Maxwell House Coffee plastic jar.

penn lid

folgers lid

maxwell house lid

The lids all stay on pretty well and can eliminate the mesh stow sack if desired. I don't believe they will take the heat of cooking with them.

Do you have any other examples of plastic lids fitting cups/mugs?

For the Evernew Titanium 400ml Companion Cup (EBY265), the Nestle's plastic lids fit.

Thanks for this! I was about to steal a lid from my tupperware for my Heineken pot but can use the Penn lid.

snowpeak 600 on 12/05/2010 08:40:09 MST Print View

I have found a lid for a snow peak 600 that tightly "snaps" onto the top. It can also be used as a sipper lid if you cut a small hole in it. It is a anderson eriickson french onion dip lid. It might only be a midwest thing though. If anyone is interested, I could
get one and send it out for a few bucks.

Backcountry Ti 700mL Mug/Pot on 12/05/2010 08:53:25 MST Print View

I discovered that the lid from my Jetboil fits nicely on my Backcountry.com titanium 700 mL mug/pot. I should note that the lid I have is the standard black lid - I don't have one of those space-age Jetboils with color-changing action. Anyway, it fits a little loosely at regular temps but once the pot has some really hot liquid in it the lid snugs up quite well - never had any issues with spillage. It's perfect for changing the "pot" into a "mug". The Jetboil lid is admittedly a little beefy at around 1 oz, but I think it's worth it for the mug functionality it provides. I also made a reflectix cozy to make it in an insulated mug - I like my coffee as hot as possible.

The backcountry.com pot/mug, the cozy, and the Jetboil lid have a combined weight of 5.3 oz. I use some foil for a lid when actually boiling - don't want to risk melting/warping the Jetboil lid. All in all I've found it to be a great solo system.

I'll have a jar of foldgers coffee (unused) on gear swap next week. Unless I can get in touch with Ben.

Has anybody found a plastic lid or disposable coffee cup lid that fits on the BPL Trapper mug?

Joshua, measure the lip diameter and post it here. Measure in centimeters/millimeters.
