## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can a sterno can be used for say, 30 minutes, put out and then be used again?**
A: How can I tame the sterno can heat / fire as to not burn or cook the food more when you just want to warm,  not cook?

**Q: Can you use the cooking fuel to just light and say, roast a hotdog or marshmellows?  Is the fuel safe to use to cook food directly over the fire? If not, what do you recommend?**
A: I am told by my mother (circa 1948) that the Sterno Fuel is "jellied alcohol" and when burned the gas given off is CO2 and H2O. I have never used the "direct flame" cooking method but I would think it would be OK. I use Sterno to boil water and heat foods in a small pan. lg

**Q: what type of wick does this sterno contain?**
A: It does not have a wick.  Open the top, place a heat source (lighted match or lighter) in the container and the fuel will begin to burn.  When done, just replace the cap and it snuffs out the flame.

**Q: What is shelf life?**
A: While there is technically no expiration date, we do recommend replacing any  unused fuel after two years of purchase date. Thank you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fire fire
*by G***J on June 9, 2025*

Keeps the food warm good valve for the money works really well

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Always useful
*by T***6 on May 21, 2013*

Makes a fire hot enough to gently boil water when used with a folding sterno stove. Amazon's online coupon let me get this for far less than my local grocery store. When the gel burns down to a point where it has trouble staying lit, stir it with a small stick and try again. When it burns too low to stay lit, scoop the remaining gel into a spare sterno can. Don't use any other type of can; they are made to take the heat. Mix and light, or you can add a couple of tablespoons of rubbing alcohol, stir well and allow to sit for a few minutes. Light it (It might take a few times to keep it lit), and you will have enough heat to make hot soup or hot water for cocoa or coffee.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for a Windy Picnic at the Pumpkin Farm
*by G***O on September 2, 2019*

We had a picnic with our daughter's karate school at the local pumpkin farm. It ended up being an extremely frigid, windy day and everyone tried cuddling near the fire pit. We brought sweet and sour meatballs (already heated) and kept them warm for hours with these sterno cans. We only used 2 cans and they lasted the entire afternoon. The event was 11am-3pm. We arrived early, placed the meatballs over the heat immediately and we left late. I used a large aluminum tray and had one can under each side. I also doubled the aluminum tray to ensure the meatballs wouldn't burn. After the meatballs were all gone, we let another family use the bottom tray to keep their food warm because the sterno cans were still going. The cans did not burn out, we had to put the lids on to put them out when we left. I'm purchasing these again for this year's event.
