    @z1ulike Yes...I can get a really low simmer...something like an 8R would simmer. I like how it runs without the needle so much I actually dont plan to put it back. I just keep it in a baggie.

    Now to look for a spare jet haha

    我有很多這種爐子(我都忘了我買了多少個了)。實際上,爐身的油壺部分基本上是鐵製的,爐頭部分是銅製的,但也有一種油壺完全是銅製的。我自己就有一個(我從一位法國女士那裡買的,她當時正在出售她父親的遺物——她父親以前是名軍人,這爐子顯然是他軍用裝備的一部分)。高級版本裝備是紅色外殼,他有一顆漏斗 一隻板手
    I have many of these stoves (I've lost count of how many I've bought). Actually, the oil can part of the stove body is mostly iron, and the burner head is brass, but there are also some with the oil can entirely made of brass. I have one myself (I bought it from a French lady who was selling her father's belongings—her father was a former soldier, and this stove was clearly part of his military equipment). The premium version has a red casing, a funnel, and a wrench.

    Do you have a Vesta two burner stove? You should enter your brass tanked Vesta in this month's "Stove of the Month" contest. It would get my vote for sure.

    Hi @wang2b .Welcome to the forum.
    I’d also love to see the stoves from your collection. If possible, please post some photos.
