How Does an Alcohol Burner Work?
An alcohol burner (spirit burner) uses alcohol as a fuel source. The Pathfinder stainless steel alcohol stove holds approximately 4.5 ounces of fuel and can burn for over half an hour.
If you’ve never tried an alcohol burner, you’re in for a treat. Developed by legendary Alpine mountaineer Francis Fox Tuckett in the 1850s, the early stoves were designed to hang from a cord in your tent. They had a simple construction — a metal base with an opening for adding fuel and a top for extinguishing the flame.
The modern spirit burners are just as simple as their predecessors but more durable and easier to use. Light your fuel, add a stabilizer like the Pathfinder Stove Stand Multi-Tool, put your pot on top, and start cooking.
Because you can light the fuel in the wind, snow, or even rainy weather, they’re convenient cooking stoves for hikers, backpackers, and campers.
But that doesn’t mean you must be halfway up a mountainside to brew hot coffee under nature’s canopy. You can carry your alcohol stove in your gear pack and use it anywhere.
How to Use the Pathfinder Alcohol Stove
To cook with an alcohol stove burner, you need the stove, fuel, and a fire source, such as a ferro rod or another fire-starting kit. Here’s a quick guide to using your camping alcohol stove burner:
-
Remove the cap from your stove.
-
Add at least two ounces of fuel. We recommend you use denatured alcohol because it’s inexpensive and does the job well.
-
You might not see the flame right away. Hold your palm a couple of inches above the opening to check that your spirit burner is lit.
-
Place your stove stand over the flame, followed by your cooking pot.
-
Add your water or food and let it cook.
-
To extinguish the fire, put the top back in place to remove all the oxygen from the burner.
That’s all you need to know to start cooking with your alcohol stove!

Pairs perfectly with my Pathfinder canteen nesting stove. It doesn't leak. It works great.
All Self Reliance Outfitters products are 100% top quality. You can bet on it!
I got turned off to alcohol stoves when I tried to build one out of tuna fish cans, and was disappointed in the result. I decided to give this one a try, and it works great! Nice, even flame, and I use it with the pot support multi-tools. I like that the lid seals shut, so it can be carried with fuel ready to go.
I've bought two of these stoves, one for my bottle kit and one for my canteen kit. They work great and are small enough to pack into both kit bags!! I've even used them with the pot holder attachment to cook bacon and eggs in my 8" stainless steel skillet!! The way they are designed to fit underneath cook stands in both the bottle and canteen kits makes using them a breeze!!
