![]() Alcohol for my pressure (Homestrand) two-burner stove is now about 14 bucks a gallon - what a huge rip-off since it is the same crap they dilute perfectly good gasoline with to make gasohol that sells cheaper than alcohol-free gasoline. So, I fooled the greedy *******s! I now burn gasohol in my alcohol stove. I mix it 50/50 and it not only burns hotter and boils water faster but it will turn way down for simmering without spitting and going out. (Oh, I finally figured out what caused the spitting. It's water in the alcohol that condenses under the dome of the burner and erupts into steam from time to time.) Try it, you'll like it. Saves big bucks. Wilbur Hubbard |
