Fill the mesh with liquid. The cap is the smaller piece that will put out the fire.
Sorry, but you should check the website of your fondue company.br>br>I always use gel fuel. It complements chocolate fondue well.br>br>FW
We use "Swiss fire gel," a type of fondue fuel paste, as well as sterno liquid. The Swiss fire gel, I believe, came from Amazon, and the sterno liquid, I believe, can be found in most hardward stores.
Hello Jimena,br>br>This Fondue Burner stands at 1 and 7/8ths of an inch in height. It measures 3 and 5/16ths of an inch in width at the bottom. br>As a precaution, I purchased two of them. My original brass fondue burners did not fit in the inset circles for heating the pots on the Brass Stand. br>There are no insets on these burners. THEY ARE FLAT DOWN THE CENTER. br>With heartfelt gratitude,br>Maria Contessabr>Oro Valley, AZ
Selected User Reviews For Cuisinox Stainless Steel Fondue Burner
I was tired of dealing with the Sterno cups on my old Fondue "burner" (which was just a cup to hold the can and had no regulator), so I looked into this one. It has a nice regulator; all you have to do is rotate it to open 3, 6, or none of the holes, with gradual changes in between. br>br>The inner cup of the burner can be filled with liquid fuel (I use denatured alcohol from hardware stores because it burns the cleanest). That cup can be taken out as well, and the gel-filled container can be used instead. Instead of type cans, you could use them. br>br>It's a perfect match for my cast-iron fondue pot.
At the very least, I didn't set the kitchen on fire. br>br>Because of the flash fire warnings on the gel fluid bottle, I was a little nervous. The "instructions" on the burner package were so basic that they could have served as illustrations for actual instructions. br>br>I didn't start a fire in the kitchen, but I'm at a loss for what to do with the fuel left in the burner: whether I should clean the burner with or without the remaining fuel, or whether I should clean it at all; It's the little things.
I tried denatured alcohol but it didn't work. I had a few false starts, and when it did start, it only lasted a second. I removed the top of the burner and found the words "USE GEL FUEL ONLY" stamped on the bottom inside. I've been making fondue meals for over 50 years, so this isn't my first rodeo. This listing is incorrect in some way.
It's made of relatively thin stainless steel and is quite pricey for what it is. The air shutter has three holes open when you push the lever to the stop to the right and six holes open when you push it to the left, so you have to center it to close everything. There's a removable insert you can use for liquid fuel, or you can burn the paste if you remove the insert and set it aside. A thin stainless steel grid runs across the top of the insert. I've had similar ones before, and they lasted about 25 meals.
very good quality.
This is a fantastic substitute for our fondue set.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I improvised by using Sterno gel, which worked perfectly. It offers excellent value for money.
