You might be happier with the results. I'm a fan of my fancy feast alcohol stove. It's much lighter than any canister stove that I know of. I'd guess about half of my gear is diy stuff. It's cheaper and you get the satisfaction of making it yourself.
Liquid alcohol I assume? Have you ever used solid fuel burners? I didn't really notice them until browsing MEC stove inventory and it looks kind of cool.
The esbit tablet stoves? I have, but it's been a long while. From what I recall they did a fair job cooking, but much slower than a canister stove (alcohol is also slower). They leave a ton of soot and residue on your pot. The tablets have a strong odor.
The alcohol stove can run on any liquid with a high alcohol concentration. Fuel is available at basically every has station in the form of fuel de-icer.
