So this is less about brewing and more about camping.

My wife and I are going to camp on the Chesapeake this weekend and I broke out my Coleman 425f stove which has not been lit in about 15 years. There was still fuel in it and it fired up immediately and I got a nice clean blue flame on both burners.

My question is about power.

Burner 1 is 11,500 BTU's
Burner 2 is 9,599 BTU's

How does the equate to a typical gas stove burner? I know I've read that a 1qt of water takes about 4 minutes to boil... just trying to prepare my cooking strategy.
