So you CAN bake with alcohol. I'd recommend a Backpacker's Pantry aneroid thermometer lid handle instead of the "sizzling water" method.

I do like the corrugated heat diffuser idea inside the pot but I'd be tempted to try it UNDER the pot, where most heat diffusers go.

I noticed the alcohol flame was going out just as the biscuit was done. Hmmm...good timing - or luck?
