Beer Can Cook Stove | Poncho Tent | Lightning Access Backpack Pack Up the "Beer Can" Cook Pot & Stove The stove and cook pot pack up into a single tidy and sturdy package. Set up is fast and simple. Packing up is equally simple and handy. Slide the fuel tray all the way up onto the bottom of the cook pot. You can do this when a fuel tablet is burning, and it will snuff out the flame. If the tablet is burning, steady the top of the pot with one hand and use a stick to push up the tray. WARNING: Since the windscreen, wire stand, and stove tray all get very hot when the stove is cooking, please wait one minute after the flame goes out before you touch them. Lift the cook pot with the tray on the bottom off the stand and set them aside. The lip guard is an insulated place to hold a hot cook pot. You can also use your handkerchief as a pot holder. Set the windscreen aside, and turn the stand over. Place the windscreen into the stand, and flare the top of the windscreen (to make it easy to slide in the cook pot and tray). The windscreen flares better if you slide it only part way into the stand. Place the cook pot with the tray on the bottom, down into the center of the windscreen. Slide the cook pot and windscreen completely into the stand. The tray will slide out the bottom of the stand when you have lined up with the notches in the stand. The stove is packed up, and you now have an insulated mug!

Set the windscreen off to the side. Place the cook pot (with the tray on the bottom) onto the stand. Line up the notches in the stand with the wires in the tray. Slide the tray down off the bottom of the pot and into the stand. The tray rests in the notches of the stand. Put water in the cook pot. Put a fuel tablet into the tray and light it. (The easiest way to light the fuel tablet is to tip it up so that part of it hangs over the edge of the tray. A match will light the fuel tablet but a small butane lighter works even better.) If you lit the tablet up on the edge, push it into the center of the fuel tray. (You can use the stub of a wooden match to do this, or pick up a stick or small rock to nudge the fuel tablet into place.) Lower the windscreen over the cook pot and you're cooking. You can scrunch a square of aluminum foil over the top of the pot as a lid. When it's windy, put the windscreen around the stove first and light the fuel tablet through the opening of the windscreen.
