The reason I so love my self Aster/Saito self presurizing burners!

The ceramic burners I have are surprisingly capricious
some fairly good at burning gas optimally, other obviously much less.

STEAMPROPULSION, I was lucky then...

logoman, are the (self)pressurized alcohol burners quieter than gas?
At home, gas is to loud for my liking, you don't hear the delicate "tick" of the engine at low speed behind the gas burning roar... Maybe a gas regulator makes it better somewhat?

I just had a very short test with it. Maybe i should have put more alcohol in it. It didn't seem to vaporise alcohol. I'll try with more alcohol. I didn't know it had a wick inside. Thanks for the info.
