If all you want is a coffee, tea, noodles
Then I'd recommend the Camping Gaz Twister 270.
The whole lot packs down into the cooking pots, the gas cyclinder is valved, so you can detach it, it's got a built in piezo ignition, and those little blue gaz cylinders are available all over Europe, my local supermarket here in France stocks them so you don't have to seek them out at all. In an emergency you can buy a bigger cylinder and it'll fit too, you just can't pack it as small.
I've had mine for 20 years now, I bought it in Broken Hill now I think about it. It's done stirling service always provides me with a brew and I've never had a problem with cold even in the Pyrenées in winter, just give the gaz canister a good shake before you light it, and for the morning brew just pop it in your sleeping bag for five mins before you light up (outside of course).
One tip though, don't leave it exposed outside your tent at night. For some reason it attracts earwigs who climb inside the little air inlet hole at the base of the burner. Then when you light it in the morning you've got a sooty flame, and of course, burnt earwigs.
I see that Coleman and Camping Gaz are one and the same now, so I presume a Coleman branded canister will fit too?
