Just wondering if anyone has easily made an alcohol stove that is able to boil 500mL of water (2 cups) with under 20mL of methylated spirits, in 5 min or under?
I was looking at the penny stove 2.0 but couldnt find much data on efficiency. And what I did find was wildly conflicting.
Also, it says an old penny is needed, would any coin that is the right size do? I live somewhere where we dont have pennies at all!
I was also looking at the supercat stove but from what I gather it is rather innefficient, although fast boiling.
If anyone has any designs to suggest that would fulfill the above requirements, or can provide data on any designs, then this would be immensely helpful. If a stove fulfilling the above requirements can be easily made, then I am definitely looking to switch to alcohol for some trips, but otherwise I'd stick with my canister stove, which can get me the water for a brew boiled in around 3min.
