    Fondue Set Vintage Swiss Tabletop Adjustable Alcohol Burner Meats Broth Cheeses
    Missing Cast Iron Stand & Needs Denatured Alcohol
    Alcohol Burners
    Meat fondues need a very hot heat source. For meat fondue you want to heat your oil to a temperature of 350 degrees.  For broth you want to simmer around 200 degrees.  Ideally you will use an alcohol burner or electric fondue pot.  The Swiss prefer a traditional alcohol burner used under a thick-bottom cast iron or stainless steel pot.
    Most burners are fueled with denatured alcohol or fondue fuel gel.  Alcohol burners are the hottest tabletop heat source and ideal for heating oils that require high temperatures for cooking meats.  The height and heat of the flame is determined by how much air you let into it’s chamber.
    Alcohol burners are meant to be used with fondue fuel (Sold at specialty food stores.) or denatured alcohol ONLY!  (You can find it at any hardware store.) If using denatured alcohol, your burner will come with an insert that looks like a strainer.  It goes inside the burner and keeps your flame under control while burning.  If you are using the fondue fuel gel, you will not need the insert since the gel itself helps to control the rate at which it will burn.
    Fill your alcohol burner with 3 ounces of fuel.  Using more is not recommended and may cause excessive flames.  You can plan on 3 ounces of fuel burning approximately 60-90 minutes, depending on how high you set your flame.  You can use 2 ounces of fuel if you plan on less time.
    Be careful to wipe off the edges of the burner if any alcohol spilled on them before you set it on its stand.
    Use a match to light the fuel at the center of the burner.  Do not use a lighter since this can be very dangerous.  Also, never tip the burner to ignite!  You might cause fuel to leak and catch your table on fire!
    Once the fuel is lit, use the adjustable handle to control the size of the flame.  Open more holes to make the flames higher.  Close the holes to lower the flames.
    If your burner is running out of fuel, DO NOT attempt to add more fuel while the burner is lit.  Use the burner cover to extinguish the flame completely and allow the burner to cool for a few minutes before re-fueling.
    TIP:
    No more than 4 people should sit at one pot.  If too many forks are in the oil or broth at one time, the temperature can quickly drop and the meat may not cook properly.
    SAFETY:
    Be sure to protect your table from the heat of the flame by putting your pot on a stable surface with a heat pad, wooden cutting board, or ceramic tile under it.
