The Butterfly #2412 Brass Pressure stove is made from solid brass. It can be disassembled, sealed, and carried in a backpack. Like Pressurized kerosene lanterns, pressure stoves must be pre-heated with a couple teaspoons of denatured alcohol. The burning alcohol heats the brass burner for 20-30 seconds, then when you start pumping, the kerosene rises inside the burner and vaporizes. The kerosene vapor catches fire and the stove starts. Once it is going, the heat from the flame keeps the burner hot enough to continue the vaporization process, plus the fuel in the tank warms enough to keep the stove pressurized, so you don't need to pump.
DO NOT use any fuel that is more volatile than kerosene. Gasoline and Coleman fuel are too volatile (explosive) to be used in a pressure stove. Some people have used bio-diesel, diesel or fuel oil successfully, but the manufacturer recommends only K1 Kerosene.
Included with your brass stove are 3 removable stove supports, 3 pick tools for cleaning, a wrench to remove/tighten the burner, and a brass cap that seals the tank when the burner assembly is removed. The tank is shown in the sealed position. The cap, when removed, attaches to the end of the pump so it doesn't get lost.
