Beer can stove inserts
For those who still have old pressurized alcohol stoves, they might
consider the following. Remove the stoves innards from the burner wells. Now, get on the web and google "Beer can stove" and you will find several "designs" for unpressurized alcohol backpacking stoves made from two halves of a beer can nested in such a way that the alcohol wicks up between them. One could make such from a wider can and put it down in the burner wells. The advantage is the unpressurized aspect, no more priming where you nearly set the boat on fire because you thought the original prime was out before you poured on more alcohol or otherwise having pressurized alcohol spraying over the inside of your boat. It will burn cooler though so you wont prepare a 6 course meal. I want to nest more burners inside the first one but haven done so yet. |
