Just bang some holes in a spare can lid to get more control over the temp. Then swap it with an untampered lid to stop it evaporating.

[@meauxjeaux431]

Basically what I said but not as long winded as my comment which was....It's not the paint can's fault, but the methods of usage. The stands, should be designed totally different and not be made of wood. The paint can needs some kind of restrictor plate to even out the flame distribution and intensity. You need three covers, one that functions strictly as a cover, and two that are modified to be flame restrictors. One modified in a manner to produce a larger flame when needed, and one to produce a smaller, evenly distributed flame suitable for simmering. My opinion is that by modifying the covers, the paint can would do a job that is more practical and superior to the soda can stove. Also, the fuel used would make a difference. Lamp oil, coal oil, kerosene, alcohol, etc. all burn differently, produce different amounts of heat, and have different burn rates and cleanliness of the flame (smoke). The alcohol burns cleaner, hotter, and faster, while the others burn slower and cooler, but produce more smoke and soot. You would want a fuel that also lasts longer, and is hopefully cheaper also. More research and experimentation is needed.

Fun fact about boiling water, the max temp it'll reach is 212 F, which then the water evaporates and doesn't reach a higher temp.

[@cherylalikhani5957]

What you need for the big stove is two lids. One lid as an actual lid for storage, the second lid with holes drilled in it to help control the flame similar to the smaller stove. That big stove has so much potential. It can work as a stove, light source, heater, campfire, etc. If it gets knocked on its side the alcohol won't spill out, making it much safer than the first stove.

[@meauxjeaux431]

Actually, THREE lids....Here's what I said in my comment.... It's not the paint can's fault, but the methods of usage and it's design.

Depends somewhat on the temperature - the warmer the more alcohol evaporates and is available to burn. Heat gun is rather excessive, just place the coin and pour a little alcohol on the top of the stove and light. Once hot enough for the vapors to come out the perimeter holes, those will light too. Pressure can be improved by an inner wall (cut a strip of Alu and slits to form a ring slightly smaller than the can (suitable to fit round the bottom dome works fine). 180 degrees apart, on the edge that goes to the bottom can, cut two small notches for fuel to seep from the inner reservoir into the chamber formed by the can wall and the added interior wall. Height of strip/wall should be such that the two cans don't quite fully come together as the would without the inner ring/wall ie you want the ring/wall clamped against top and bottom without gaps other than the two notches cut in the ring/wall.

The flavour and texture of the bacon is reminiscent of gourmet made bacon in the seventies when they would use a different type of salt to cure and thus crisping it more than usual in temperatures of between 70~80 C stove for slow cooking. The egg is perfectly fried as there is no part undercooked and the yolk, while runny has no uncooked taste. I would rate the bacon at a 9 and the egg at an 8. In conclusion, the stove is good."

[@boomkruncher325zzshred5]

The holes on the soda pop can and the open lid of the paint can channel the flames upward, because that’s where oxygen is. Oxygen is necessary for fire to happen, it is one of the components that drives combustion. This means that the wood on the sides and underneath would take a very long time to catch fire, because almost all of the heat goes up, not to the side, because the heat happens with the flame. That’s why the base of the paint can wasn’t even hot after boiling the water. Now, if something knocked over these cans while they were lit, then the alcohol would spill out and the flames would travel with the spilled alcohol. Then all that wooden stuff would catch fire...

For the pop can one, one trick I've seen mentioned is to cut a strip off of the remainder of the cans to make a 'wall' between the inner and outer sections of the bottom of the can at that little ridge it's got. Cut notches so the alcohol can travel between the sides. Think it's so the alcohol itself isn't burning, but the alcohol boils, and the vapor burns. Also, with the pop can one, it's small enough that you could probably use more than one if you needed more heat.

I know its an old video but for the issue of too much heat all you have to do is hold the pan higher or take it off the flame and put it on.. thats actually normal for chefs to do for example tempering something... Just manually move the pan on and off flame for things such as eggs, the residual heat in the pan will continue to cook the egg more gently and if you need more heat again then momentarily put it back on or hold the pan up higher off the flame.. cooking 101

I make can stoves using the top and bottom of the can, cut out the top, the cut out the center making it about the same height as the one you made, take a knife and with your fingers inside the top section from top to bottom and crease it between your fingers, move your fingers and crease again, you'll end up with 6 or 7 creases around the side, test fit and make sure you have an air gap, or can see the bottom, put a few air inlet holes on the top by the rolled edge, 4 normally works well, and once you have the can fit well you can light it without priming, it runs on very little alcohol and burns better as it warms up, you get more of a gas stove type burn with small blue flames which are hotter and more even instead of all the small yellow flames

[@dakotabrown550]

The water didn't go past 212 degrees because that's the boiling point water. One of the observations of nature is that you can't observe liquids past their boiling points. If that makes sense. Like you can't have 300 degree water but you can have 300 degree water vapor
