Another neat thing about the alcohol burners is that you can carry the fuel in
a common plastic water bottle. Spilled fuel inside pannier or backpack
evaporates quickly and leaves no residue. very clean stuff. Just mark the
outside so you don't take a big swig of it on a thirsty day!

I have both sets, the smaller and the larger. Trangia says that the
smaller set is appropriate for one or two people, and the larger for
three or four. In my experience, the one person set is perfect for one
but too small for two and I doubt the larger set is big enough for
four.
