Small spirit stove

[Nice65]

I love the idea of a spirit burner. Out of interest what's the advantage of filling it with loft insulation? Doesn't that take space that would otherwise allow for more fuel?

Like a Zippo or any liquid fuel lighter needs cotton wool or some kind of wadding to keep the fuel stable.

Carbon felt works well,just not as cheap as the other options.

I'll have to give that a try in my supercat, see if it makes a difference. I just fill it and light it. Certainly, nothing about my set up could be described as stable.
