Re your questions on the pct l
I do not know your particular stove but my alcohol stove boils a liter of water on a fluid ounce of alcohol.  My suggestion is to try your model at home, timing the boiling of water.
A second suggestion...don't cook breakfast.  That would cut your fuel needs in half.  A lot of hikers find it easier when logging the miles to just eat a bar of some kind either just before getting up or while walking first thing in the morning.  Sometimes it just sems like too much work to cook in the morning. Oatmeal gets old.  Ano th er option would be to eat the oatmeal uncooked.  I've heard of people putting the oatmeal and fixings in a water bottle, adding water and drinking it in an hour or so.
