Alcohol fuel sources in Asia

for Taiwan, you might try the Reddit thread r/Taiwan on Reddit

Hand sanitizer?  Usually 70% ethanol.  I have used it Internationally.  My 2 cents.

Thanks, maker of my stove (Trail Designs) mentioned that 70% is not a high enough percentage of alcohol.

The 10-12 should be fine.  I’ve burned Hand sanitizer in all of my stoves and it works well.  The Kojin (and other wicking stove) may have problems as the viscocity is pretty high.  my 2 cents.

BRILLIANT video describing how to remove the glycerin from hand sanitizer, leaving you with a much more efficient fuel source

Cool ideal, I’ll have to try it.  I myself have not see residual gunk after burning hand sanitizer but can imagine it could happen with some brands.

I think some of this may depend a bit on the type of hand sani and the stove used.

Same channel has another vid for using less glycerine based hand sanitizers.

One suprizing thing is that by using salt to remove the glycerine it seems like ther ewould be residual salt in the alcohol.  That should make the flame burn yellow and that was not the case.  No idea
