Preview: IsoClean Universal Alcohol Stove - 02/10/13 10:15 PM

One of the more interesting stoves I'm reviewing right now is the IsoClean stove from Flat Cat Gear. The IsoClean stove is a "universal" alcohol stove in that it will burn any kind of the three alcohols typically out there: methyl (as in HEET), ethyl (typically the primary component of denatured alcohol), and isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. It will also burn blends of any of the three common alcohols.

I find the idea of a universal alcohol stove very appealing in that I can get fuel at gas stations (HEET), hardware stoves (denatured), or pharmacies (rubbing). Even fairly small towns will have one of the three types.

I'm not done with reviewing the stove, but I thought I'd post a preview:
