Ok first I want to say that I take no credit for most of the stoves, I did not desing them, I just made them. I did however desing the tin can stoves made out of tomato paste cans, as well as the wire filliment that boils the alcohol.

First Stove: Needs a pot stand to cook with, is a top burner pressurized stove.

Second Stove: Also requires a pot stand to cook, it is also a pressurized top burning stove.

Third Stove: Does not need a pot stand to cook with, it is a pressurized side burner stove.

Fourth Stove: Needs a pot stand to cook, it is a hybrid pressurized/open chimney stove.

Fifth Stove: Needs a pot stand to cook, is is an open chimney stove.

Sixth Stove: Does not need a pot to cook with, it is a pressurized side burner stove.

Seventh Stove: Needs a pot stand to cook with, it is a pressurized top burner stove.

Eighth Stove: Does not need a pot stand to cook, it is a low pressure side burner stove

Ninth Stove: Does not need a pot stand to cook, it is a very slightly pressurized side burning stove. The metal coil inside it boils the alcohol to make it burn hotter.

Boiling the water, it was minus three celcius outside and the stove burnt for a total of twenty minutes when completely filled. Took 15 minutes to boil 1,000 ml of water with the crappy wind screen.

Notice on the exploding stove I diddent put the screw in.

Pleas Comment and rate this video, it would be cool if you posted your alcohol stove as a responce to this.
If you have any questions please ask and I will reply.
Hope you liked it Thanks for watching!!
PEACE

  • Not sure about ...

    Not sure about which works best because i have not used all of them for cooking. I use gas line antifreez and you should be able to get that in most hard ware stores. I don't know of any specific U.S. stores but i got to CANADIAN TIRE for mine. Here its fine if your 14 but i am not sure about there. anyways good luck. My personal favorite stoves are the tin can ones for their simplicity, but be warned they are near impossible to put out.

    In Europe denatured alcohol is called "methyl spirits". Try a hardware store or paint store.

    Also, try pre-heating your can on the bottom for 10 secs too. Gets the vapour going so you can light it.
