I agree with Bill....on this and lots of other things. I've heard all the knocks on alcohol stoves, but to me it works as well as any of my white gas backpacking stoves. And one quart of fuel lasts me all year. A two burner would be nice. I could sauté the mushrooms at the same time I'm cooking my steak!

The Origo is a wick, not a pressure, stove. The boil rate, it seems to me, is nearly as fast as propane. I've never timed it, but I have been happy with the speed.

Is the Origo stove listed on the Monty owners web page a alcohol wick or pressure type, what is the boil rate for one quart, about 5 minutes or so or is it less
