i make these stove as well and you either need to get your pot closer to the flame or your stove has gone out my little stove is half that ones size and it will boil water in 5-6 minutes. different design though open top design. I'll Make a video one day to prove it. And these stoves DO NOT SUCK.... You just gotta know what your doing.
I had the same problem with my pressure penny stove. Then i made a open cup stove out of 24oz. cans, which the hieny pot fits perfect onto! When the pot is on top its at a simmering heat, but when i need some more heat i made a "X" piece that lifts the pot about 1/2in. off the stove and keeps it from taking too much heat from the stove when the pot is cold. just incase ur wondering, i got my open cup to burn longer then my pressure stove. 19 mins on low which brought 1 1/2 cup to boil in 7 min
Would a third leg make the pot stand stronger? How about using the timer on your thermometer. BTW Penny stoves do suck but we all have to go through them. Keep up the good work.
Why do you not have jets? Mine has jets... boils water very quickly.

It's only 2 cups, enough for one Ramen noodle package-hardly enough to feed a family.

You need multiple flames rather than one big flame
