Cooking with gas: all the uses for butane canisters
Butane canisters are a versatile tool wherever you’re cooking – whether it’s at home, in a professional kitchen, or outdoors. These handy fuel canisters can power a burner, a kitchen torch, or even a camping stove, allowing you to cook more, create speciality meals, or enjoy a hot meal in the great outdoors. Chef Master butane canisters are up to any task. One 8oz canister is enough fuel to last up to 2 hours of burn time at high heat and 4 hours at simmer (depending on your stove).
What is butane gas?
Butane is a very widely used flammable gas. It’s used for everything from fuel for lighters and camping stoves, to professional gas cookers and kitchen torches. It occurs naturally in natural gasses that come straight from the earth. In simple terms, it’s a gas that easily catches fire and is handy for things like lighting a flame or powering portable stoves.

How to safely use butane canisters in the kitchen
Butane canisters can be used in kitchens, but the most important thing to remember is safety. Butane is highly flammable and when placed in a pressurised canister is can turn from fuel for a stove into a ticking bomb. Thankfully, the ChefMaster butane canisters that we stock feature a new, safer design with Countersink Release Vent (CRV) technology and triple seams at the top of the can.
Butane canisters with CRV are protected from explosive decompression. In the even that your canister does become compromised and pressure builds up, the butane inside is evenly and safely vented and you won’t have to worry about the top of the can separating. Chef Master butane canisters are also UL Listed, which means that they’ve been rigorously tested by Underwriter Laboratories, based in Illinois, and that the components meet nationally recognized standards for sustainability and safety. With this innovative technology from ChefMaster, you’re protected against your butane canister backfiring when you light up a kitchen torch to make the perfect crème brûlée.
