How do you put out the invisible flame when the food is done cooking? If can't do that and you just let it burn out the fuel, how do you know when that is done?

[survivalistboards]

@bs2137 - once the fire gets going, you can see it.

Shortly after the noodles are finished cooking, the stove runs out of fuel. So it works out well.

@JosiahsBackpack - no, you got "my" jacket.

This thing costs $50 in NZ. Personally I would make one out of a coke can than buy the Triad.

[PestControl02]

how do you extinguish the fire??

[rcplanegy]

@johnmonk66 if you look at any other alcohol stoves they all usr denatured alcohol, found in the paint section of any hardware store. Or another good option is called HEET its a water remover for car gas tanks found at most auto repair shops. Good luck!

[martyt76]

what kind of cook pot is that?

[wakeNbakePIZZA]

wow that must be a monster coyote i have never seen coyote tracks that big i though they where bear at first

[johnmonk66]

Can I ask the type of alcohol you use?  I tried my vargo with 91% Isopropyl alcohol and the vargo never blossomed, it just burned out.

Hey, you've got a great channel and I'm looking forward to checking out the videos. Subscribed.

I've got the facilities for it, so why not? I'm limited in the amount of consumable alcohol I can have, but fuel? Nah, I'm fine with that. I run my lawnmowers and other small stuff (plus two cars) off of it.

Save a lot on gas, and, I'm pretty set for any disaster. If needed, I can produce enough to sell in times of need. I imagine if somebody brought me a bunch of corn, I'd make them some ethanol no problem. :)

I subscribe to your channel. I know at lot of things that you teach ,but you always seem to have one idea that I had not considered.

I love your Texas accent,; My son-inlaw is Texan. If the two of you were talking from another room, I wold have to guess who was who.

I enjoy your vids.

Keep up the good work!

@Kriegsarschmann, You've pretty much got it. But what makes it denatured isnt nessesarily poison, it could be simply very unpleasant. Thats the minimum of a denatured classification. However, then other things can be added later to also make it poisonous. Personally, I think it would be cheaper from a time perspective to simply buy denatured alcohol than brew my own.
