I know this will appeal to a small subsection of my readership, but I’ve been meaning to sit down and do some altitude speed runs of some alcohol stoves (10500 feet up). In the below video I start the stove and immediately put the pot on to boil 2 cups of water. It’s marginally more exciting than watching paint dry so I condensed the speed down so the whole process lasts around 4 minutes or so. The results are surprising.
Anyhow, take a look if you’re into that sort of thing and let me know if you want a tutorial on one of the two stoves that I haven’t shown yet on the blog.
