Trangia Coffee/Tea People: When camping, what mug do you use and
where's it kept? I ask because I'm not sure if I should look for a
mug that nests in the smaller of the two Trangia cooksets sold by RBW
or I pack/clip a mug to my saddlesack and call it a day.

It might be difficult to find a mug that nests in the little pot, and holds the Trangia burner inside it. So I recommend just finding a mug and calling it a day. I also recommend the excellent Trangia teakettle that does nest in the cookset inside the little pot. A teakettle is enormously useful.

are you finding that boiling in the teakettle is that much faster or
more convenient?

It's more convenient, because boiling in a pot ties up not only the pot but the frying pan/lid, and very likely I want the frying pan/lid for something else.

sorry to pry, but are you using more than one stove at a time? Or
eating out of the pan while boiling on the burner?

I'm frying pancakes while my tea is steeping. Or boiling water for dishes or hot drinks while I finish dinner.

Great Outdoors Depot (online) appears to have the tea kettle. Not affiliated. Just interested myself and came across it.
 
 
I hope it isn't the last one! I'm still thinking.... :)

The kettle works wonders. I've had mine for about two years. And I've
used it with the stove or thrown it in the fire. Still keep on
trucking. One of those great camping things that you HAVE to bring.
Make sure you get the right one if you want to fit it with the kit.

A carbineer mug works well for me. I clip it to my saddlebag. Make
sure you get a nice one, cheaply welded ones break off and your left
with a cup and a carabineer...
