The Candle Power - Alcohol stove # 15 (part 2/2)

[MrSchpankme]

Where'd you go? Any more Stoves in your future?

[1LRLRG]

Does the candle need to be going the whole time??

[benniblueyes]

@1LRLRG

The candle was not necessary if the stove was all aluminum.

But it's of tin can and lead less heat.

The candle has to go all the time and his autonomy is about 4 hours.

great job man

[benniblueyes]

@fistratedfisher

Thanks a lot... ;-)

[elunecacca]

bravo ma la candela è essenziale una volta acceso? non si mantiene autonomamrnte?

[Alloutdoor1]

Cool stove! How does having a candle improve the stove as opposed to a traditional alcohol stove with no candle? Im imagining that it may be more efficient?

[b0801tc]

you sir have a new subscriber!!

[AntonioJax]

Quanto consuma?

[benniblueyes]

20 ml di alcohol (la bustina sigillata) circa 6 minuti di fiamma...

[legox50]

Does the Flame diffuser help give feedback to the fuel?

[benniblueyes]

Very little, almost irrelevant.

[RockHistoryTube]

Forte!!!

[deanznz]

This is the a most interesting design. So would raising and lowering the candle change the size of the alcohol flame very much ?

[Marco92spv]

fantastico...nn avrei mai pensato di metterci la candela sotto per provocare l evaporazione dell alcool...

[junits15]

i like the flame pattern

[Ghostkamo]

Nice little stove. Looks original.

Hai del talento ,complimenti !

[dolam]

I am not sure why you are doing this. Is there some specific reason why you needed to make your own stove?

[benniblueyes]

????

Hi - you inspired me, so I recorded an espresso maker with one of my cottle stoves with a stove top espresso maker.

[notinfrimstime]

thanks 13fareseer13 but why keep the flame underneath going as surely once you have the jets going that would be enough ? Or why not just use the flame underneath and cut out the jets altogether ?

[benniblueyes]

The candle flame is enough to vaporize the alcohol, but not enough to make out the coffee.

Without a candle, the flame jets turn off. The flames of the jets (with their calorific power), have a significantly higher power than the simple candle flame.

Hence, a caloric powerful flame is driven by a weak small flame...

[legox50]

@benniblueyes benni, you are so right about the stove not having enough heat with just a candle. ive tried boiling an ounce of water with a candle and all it did was steam >.>

[josluiss]

sorprendente tienes mucha imaginacion !

[notinfrimstime]

thanks for video whats the point off heating the fuel and where did you get the coffee pot I found a very small one but I 'm still looking for a larger one. England.

[13farseer13]

the preheating of the fuel pressurizes the the fuel tank... so it will shoot out the flammable vapor to be burned... no pressure no jets

[fede88techno]

Davvero geniale!

[Dalemoooooon]

that is an awesome sove and i love the idea of the reusable fuel cartridge too

[AnnieNM06]

i wonder if i could modify the old fondu set that I found to function like this? It has a canle just like the one in the video and a circular stand thing that looks like it'd work.

Great video, thnx

[benniblueyes]

If you are considering a change to your fondue set, you are at the half of the work... ;-)

The construction of what you're missing is quite simple . Good job :-)

[matt4270]

Another Elegent Solution! Thanks for the great groove as well!

[NCHiker1970]

Awesome stove, the flame spreader is a great idea. The fuel cartridge is another great idea. Wonderful video.

[DrunknShooter]

This looks like it would be a great cold weather stove, A+ on this design.

[shugemery]

What a nice stove ... I can smell that Italian espresso! Love that wood paneling too ... what I nice place for a cuppa....

[IVOIPSG]

Man... I love that lounge music...who is it and where can I buy it...

[jonn8ball]

remind`s me of a primus

[TerraFirma369]

Nice, M! I may have to try a super-heater for my next stove project! Great idea! Peace.

[benniblueyes]

Thanks to everyone for the positive comments and compliments.

I hope to continue to delight you with new ideas and new interesting video.

A sincere greeting,

Maurizio.

[telofello]

Elegant design and artfully made alcohol stove. As always the total package including the video and music a credit to Benny, artist/craftsman.

Many thanks for all the delights I've enjoyed watching your videos.

[WorldStove]

Your idea of predosed fuel capsules has to be one of your best ever! How handy and makes loading the stove in the dark so much safer. A big step forward for all of us! Sweet soundtrack.

[maximillianof98]

take note the fume pressure is so strong that the flame can hardly "stick" to the nozzle/jet.

really like the idea of an alcohol catridge.

this will make out door use and carrying so much easy.

[FriarTuck1961]

Maurizio,

You continue to amaze me.

Inventions within inventions.

5/5 Incredible

[wildlifeed]
