Alcohol has a very low BTU content. That's what the problem is with 
trying to cook meals with Trangia stoves and Sterno.

Coleman Fuel is a lot easier to find, and contains more energy. That is 
the advantage with MSR and Svea gasoline stoves.

If you really like canister stoves, resign yourself to carrying more 
canisters.
