Can someone tell me where I might find the alcohol that goes in the burners I just got one and not sure what type of fuel it burns. Thanks Re: alcohol for burner

Yes - denatured, as stated above. Any hardware store would have it. Re: alcohol for burner

Or you stop by your local liquor store and get a bottle of Everclear. Everclear is gaining popularity as fuel for the alcohol stoves and Beverage-can stoves often used by ultralight backpackers. A lot of the hike in fishermen that walk into the High Cascades here in Oregon use it in their stoves. It is expensive compared to denatured alcohol, but many backpackers greatly value it because, unlike most other fuels, it is non-toxic (accidental introduction will not ruin the food being prepared) and can be used as a hand cleanser, disinfectant, panic suppressant, painkiller, or as a beverage mixer.
In rod building a panic suppresent, at times, can be very handy to have on hand. Bob Crook La Pine, OR Re: alcohol for burner

Thanks Bob
But if I had everclear at the house it might be used more as a mixer. See down here in SW Louisiana we are known to indulge at times lol Thanks for the tips guys will try that. Have a great day. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
