Do you have any Question?
A number of years ago I bought a decagon stove which had a small central hole, I notice the current model has a significantly larger hole. I presume this change generates an improvement in performance. Should I consider modifying mine to improve the stove's performance in terms of boiling time?
Hi. I bought decagon alchocol stove. I have tried to use it and so far...fire does't go through side small holes/muzzles. It looks like doesn't work properly. I will try again with fresh denatured alchocol. Old one is two years old. I strictly follow the instructions. May be stowe needs some special preparations befor use? best regards

The two typical reasons the Decagon won't fully bloom when used are: 1. It's not filled up all the way with fuel. It must be full enough that fuel rises above the weld in the inner well. 2. The fuel is not getting hot enough to vaporize and pressurize the stove which could be cause by poor fuel, cold outside temperatures, cold fuel temperatures, wind, etc.. Before lighting, try lightly spraying the outside of the stove with fuel then light the fuel. The additional flames this creates will help to speed up the priming process. Or trying warming up your fuel bottle by putting inside your jacket or shirt before use.By Vargoon 4 November, 2019

Both the Vargo Decagon and Triad alcohol stoves have a fuel capacity of about 1.5 ounces (44 ml) and approximate burn time of 20 minutes (though you can eek out a few more minutes on the Triad). The Decagon's burner diameter is 2.25" (57 mm) while the Triad's is 3.4" (86 mm) when the pot supports are fully extended. Both can pour unused alcohol neatly back into a fuel bottle by using a leg or the base plate as a guide.By Vargoon 4 November, 2019
