I would be weary. this is an ultra light backpacking stove and a pot that big would defeat that all together.I do think it would support the weight but the would be a large risk for tipping! this device is smaller than a pack of smokes.

After reading your question I decided to try it. The answer is yes. BUT... I do want to qualify my answer by saying that I tested it on a perfectly flat and level surface with no wind at all. I think if you used it on a surface that isn't absolutely level you might have a problem with a pot that big and heavy. Also, I think it's important to note that I used it with the larger sized isobutane can, which helps with stability.

No it's way too small to do that, it's more for 8 oz of water for like a dehydrated meal.

NO, the support legs on the burner are about 3in in dia....you could dig a hole in the ground, the depth of the whole stove, have a vent hole, and just set the whole thing on the hole, it works good, although the flue for it is not cheap when compared to propane.

That is not my normal weight for it but I tried it to accurately answer your question and it seems to hold the weight without any problem.

I don't see why not, but you would have to have a pot tall enough to cover the quart jars with water...keep in mind this is small and would most likely only take either 2 or 3 quart jars at a time. Good luck

Yes! There are four average size teacups and the pot hols enough water to fill all four.

So I could give a truthful answer, I actually put seven (7) quarts of water into the pot. Yes, it held the seven (7) quarts but keep in mind that the water reached the very top of the pot. I wouldn't ever fill my pot to that ultimate capacity because of spillovers.

Only as a water bath canner (jams, jellies are to be cooked in small batches so therefore this pot would be much too large for your purpose as I understand it). As a water bath canner, only PINTS fit in this model, not quarts.

No. Only the Farberware 3 qt Stack 'n Steam pot, however any collapsible steamer insert would work.

I use it with a 6 qt pot, but remember that it has to be tall and not exceed the cook plate.

This is a one quart pot with lid. It can obviously hold one quart, but this will leave little space for 'boiling'. Depending on the volume of your can of soup, it would be adequate if you avoid overheating and stir often.

Yes, I do a pot 12 cups, 12 would be the max. so it can handle 5 cups easy. I use mine everyday and love it.

Mine is an eight quart. The company gave me exactly what I needed and it fit perfectly. I even learned that I needed to change the whole set. I don't know about a four quart, sorry.

Yes. The smallest ridge is for the 1.5 qt, the middle ridge fits the 2 and 3 qt, the widest ridge fits the 4 qt. On the 4 qt pot the steamer is kinda wobbly.

I checked the manual and it only shows the rack holds 24 1/2 pints, 8pints or 7 quarts... Hope this helps

To be honest I do not think it would fit on the 8qt Kitchenaid! I have the Kitchenaid Classic which is 4.5 qts and it fits it perfectly. So I am thinking it would not fit or be really tight on the 8 qt setup.

This kettle will easily hold eight cups of water. It can hold 10, but that is right up to the top.

Technically, I believe it holds 2 quarts, or 8 cups, however I measured 6 cups of water with it filled so I could carry it from my sink to the stand without spillage.

I've measured it and can get 6 Qts. Plus 2 cups without it spilling or leaking.

There are 4 cups to a quart. 4 x 8 quarts = 32 cups. This is not rocket science.
