Thanks for the replies. Been experimenting. I snuffed out my partially-used can, only about 1/4 of the fuel used.
There is no lid to replace. The metal cover gets destroyed when you open it with a "blunt object," per the instructions. Maybe I got the cheap sterno, bit it IS Sterno brand.
Ok, no lid. I can work around that. But out of curiosity I went to re-light the can. It absolutely would not light. Would give a "Poof" but then nothing. So I stuck a bamboo skewer in there and stirred the green goo around to see if that would make a difference. Yes, it lights now.
I'll store it in a safe place with foil over it and can even put it inside another container because these cans are small.
We're learning about Sterno here. Thanks for the suggestions--and if this can fails to perform they come in a 2-pack so I have another can. Just hate to throw something out that can still be used.
