Article Summary:

The Etowah Outfitters Etowah II alcohol stove is a tough stove that can handle large or small pots, boils water very quickly, and includes an "economizer burner" that, when inserted into the main burner, simmers better than most alcohol stoves. At 4.5 ounces (126 grams) for the complete kit, the Etowah Outfitters Etowah II alcohol stove is not as light as many alcohol stoves on the market; but you gain serious toughness, excellent stability, and usable simmering (and you can leave the simmer burner at home if you won't need it.) At $20 for the kit, the Etowah Outfitters Etowah II alcohol stove is an amazing value that will outlive any other item in your pack.
