Sorry im trying to go as little weight as possible. Thats why going for ali. To everyone that has a hobo stove...does there need to be airflow arouns the pot ir could you have a bigger one and just rest it on top of the drainer rather than inside?

Hi Jordan :)

Yes, there needs to be airflow around the pot for optimum efficiency. Sitting in on top will impede the burn and make it smoke a lot. A 10-15mm gap all around the pot is ideal. This goes for most stoves too.

FYI, the Poundstretcher drainer is slightly bigger in diameter and the lip rolled outwards. ;)
