How do you transport denatured alcohol?

[rnArmy]

I got a little Esbit alcohol stove for Christmas. I've been wanting one.

Esbit Alcohol Stove and Trekking Cookset – J Rife Company

My question is: How do you carry the denatured alcohol? What kind of sealed container? I have a small aluminum container for carrying fuel, but it specifically states not for alcohol as it will cause corrosion.

I'm looking for something small - no larger than a quart size (a little smaller would be better).

Thanks!

I just use the plastic bottle it comes in. We keep it on hand for medical use and store it in the camper to winterize the sink drain P-traps.

Plastic is the best option.

If you want something even smaller I've seen these at REI. They're the right size to nest in your stove kit.

Plastic is best, the cheapest, but in a pinch you can use an empty Crown Royal glass bottle, if the economy is really bad, you could use Jack Daniels bottles. Seal them well, use a couple of your tactical survival candles, melt the sides a bit and jam them in the opening. Do not light the candles! Also, make sure the ATF is not around to inspect your stash.

I use these to carry gas and oil for my chainsaw when hiking/clearing trail and extra fuel for my WR250

From the MSR website:

Can I burn alcohol in my MSR stove?
No, MSR stoves will not burn alcohol, and alcohol will damage MSR Fuel Bottles.
