Is there an advantage to use titanium as opposed to anodized aluminum? The anodized aluminum seems to be a bit lighter.

vmvmvmTitanium will affect the taste of whatever you are cooking in the mug less, and it tends to resist discoloration and denting better.

vmvmvmthat's wrong. anodized aluminum is heavier. a 900mL aluminum pot and lid is generally 6-8oz. it might be more durable though. lightweight titanium is not particularly sturdy. aluminum will distribute heat somewhat better also...

vmvmvmNo, as Secondmouse said, anodized AL is heavier; it distributes heat more evenly and may cost less so it's worth considering.
Here's a sheet showing the volume-weight-price tradeoffs for different pots: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ultralight/comments/6e0ozn/lightweight_pot_comparison_sheet_and/
Looking at the ranker, at the Massdrop price, the Keith pot comes out right up there with the best unless you either don't care about weight (in which case get an AL pot) or are willing to pay over $20 to save half an ounce (in which case get an Evernew or Toaks Light pot).
I got this pot the last time it was dropped and am fairly happy with it. Do wish it had graduation markings though.
