Sue,

I'd love to do all three of those topics (alcohol/debris/Esbit stoves). However, you probably won't see me do a wood or "debris" type stove review. I live in a high fire danger area. Wood fires are just plain not allowed unless I want to travel to an official campground, pay for a site, and all that. I can't just go walking up the nearest trail like I can with my "fancier" (lol) stoves.

Alcohol stoves would be truly interesting to dig into. The problem with alcohol stoves is that there are hundreds upon hundreds of alcohol stoves. It would be really difficult though to do a true survey of what's out there in the alcohol stove "universe" simply because the "universe" is so large. Anyone with a cup shaped piece of metal can design an alcohol stove.

However, there are some alcohol stove "systems" out there that I do plan to review. I'm interested in "systems" because an alcohol stove is so dependent on a good set up in general and a windscreen in particular. The systems I'm interested in reviewing are the Trangia 27, the Caldera Cone, and the Clikstand (these three are some of the better known alcohol stove systems). Stay tuned on this one.

Esbit stoves are a little simpler to review. I've already reviewed the Ti Wing Stove which I like. I've also used the classic "folding box" Esbit stove, but I'm actually not particularly fond of that stove. I'll probably do more in times to come although I've got about 20 or 30 stove "projects" lined up ahead of it.
