Re: [pct-l] Alcohol Stoves

Did you use a windscreen all the way around?  this is important to not only
keep wind from sucking heat away, but also to warm the stove.  But you
don't want the stove too hot; probably varies with the particular stove you
made.  But try it and see if it doesn't make a difference in the fuel
consumption.  the width of the pot and the pot cover, and the substrate it
is sitting on will also affect the fuel consumption.
