Hot Stuff
(with thick-set “non-spill” safety properties)
Our first product is the methanol (methyl alcohol) gel, with a guaranteed burn time: 3.5 Hours. 75% longer burn-time than traditional 200 gms. gel packs, rated at “2 hours.”
***** New Safety Feature ***** Likening gels to
custard and yogurt (above), well this new gel of
ours is clotted cream. It is always hazardous to
claim “non-spill”, but one would have to be pretty
determined to spill or to shake this gel fuel out of
the burner. See the photograph; it takes at least
ten minutes of lying on its side for the exposed gel
to exhibit any signs of movement. This
development represents a real advance in gel
fuel safety .
- Burns not quite as hot as ethanol gel fuel - methanol
compares 8,6000 BTU/lb to ethanol’s 11,500 BTU/lb - but
an excellent performer, none the less, achieving similar
maximum water-bath temperatures slightly slower but
don’t expect methanol to raise the bain marie water
temperature to boiling: ethanol would do that for you,
if that is what you require. Provides a consistent heat
output throughout its rated burn-time. As with our
ethanol gel, we recommended that burners are
placed in holders, (i) for safety and (ii) to allow heat to
be regulated.
Heating Performance (energy value): Equal to the very
hottest methanol fuels on the market.
- Distinctive blue-coloured gel
- Clean burning: Burns to virtually nothing with no residue.
- Virtually Odourless
- Does not form a skin
- Readily relightable
- Virtually “non-spill”
(with thick-set “non-spill” safety properties)
For those inclined to refill their small (200 gms)
burners. The same blue gel methanol gel as in the
3.5-hours product. As illustrated, the contents are
sufficient to fill up to 20 x 200 gms burners. Can be
extinguished using the snuffer of the burner holder.
Reseal the burner with its own lid. NEVER, EVER
refill a burner which has recently been used, i.e.
one that is warm or hot. Observe the instructions
on the safety panel of every carton. To relight the
gel, simply apply a flame. Packed 4 per carton.
Quantity discounts available on request.

We do not have huge stocks of this yet, because the gel fuels of a
similar burn-time are vastly more popular and - frankly - are still much more competitive,
despite the recent fluctuations in fuel raw-material prices. However, we are confident that
this product will have its day. Certainly, it is ideal for room service, Fondue, a possibility.
Contents: 95 gms of pure diethylene glycol [DEG].
Packed: 48 tins per carton
Minimum declared burn-time: 2.5 hours.
Average actual burn-time, ascertained through a series of independent trials: 2 hours 49
minutes.
Specification: 95 gms. enclosed container and permanent non-flammable wick which
ensures long burn-time and consistent flame temperature. Airtight wick cover ensures
safe and leak-free transport. Odourless at all times, and odourless whilst it burns, there is
no “alcohol” smell at you buffet. It’s safer; non-flammable fuel in a sealed container. Can
stays cool even after hours of use - it’s always cool enough to handle. HSE-approved.
However, we do have huge stocks of this one.

This product burns with exactly the same heat as the 6-hour product but, remember, that
the tin is slimmer and, therefore, the flame is slightly further away from the bain marie. If
this is a problem, e.g. if you need the flame closer for the extra heat, we have an adaptor
to raise the burner the requisite amount: please ask.
And we have even huger stocks of this one.
