What are you doing burning the Everclear instead of drinking it?

If you cut the Everclear with water by 10%, it will not SOOT up your pots!

I’m a convert!!! Amazing stove.

So what´s the coin for ?

Re: glezher

The coin is the lid for the filling hole. Stops the fuel burning from the middle hole so it only comes out the jets.

Lots of great ideas. I made several designs, the best is a mini sideburner from a Red Bull can. I’ll post a pic and review in the gear section.

These homemade ideas are great i wish i was this creative what else can u burn in it that burns for awhile could u shred fire starter with a pocket knife and stuff it in there

You can burn any alcohol, rubbing alcohol will leave some water so it isn’t so great, but it will burn. I use the Heet in the yellow bottle, about 2-3$ and it works great, cheaper than ever clear. Love stuff like this! Anyone come up with a good pot support. I made one out of spokes too, but it is a bit wimpy. Jefe

If I’m carrying an alcohol stove with no support I’ll set 3-4 medium size rocks around the stove and balance the cook pot on a couple of tarp stakes. I use a White Box alcohol stove side burner so no support needed.

I’ve tried at least 12 different ultralight stove models, including the penny stove and most of those linked on the zen site. what I’ve settled on, and used without a glitch was the Turbo Cat 11 stove linked here: http://mysite.verizon.net/k3ct/Stoves/TurboCatII.htm.
I used it every day for three months on a cycling tour of Scotland with a collapsible windscreen and pot holder made from three interlinked bike spokes cut and shaped to hold the pot. The advantage it has is that with one oz of alcohol you can boil rice and simmer for 20 minutes. The simmer ring feature is missing on most alcohol stoves, which simply do a full boil.
