I cannot seem to add the pics of my stove

I need a narrow flame pattern, I thought it may need air intake holes but I don't want flames from the intake ports,that would cause a wide flame.

my pot is narrow with a heat resistant silicon and plastic lid, I'm afraid direct flames will hit and melt the lid

I plan to use the mini atomic burner with the minimalist. Any alcohol stove intended to be used with a Heinie pot will probably work.

Are you sure that lid isn't rimmed in silicon?

In looking at your stove... I'm not sure what I am looking at. Are you asking where on the body of the stove you need to put the holes? I don't have any idea of scale on that - is this one of the small aluminum bottles or a larger drink size?

Yes it is silicon, but silicon has a melting point, its safe for oven temps. but not for direct blue flame.

yes I trying to figure out where I should put the ports, I tried something I will post it later and it is a venom energy drink bottle, I think its the same as a beer bottle
