Interesting... IF the grate wer not recessed would it be acceptable?   I had
a single burner butane stove that was quite acceptable temp and cooking
wise, but the way the 'grate't was it would not accept a smallish pot
without it falling over since the legs of the grate were so far apart.  I
fixed that by putting a grate over the box it was in that was from a camping
store  couple of pad eyes on the back and I slipped the grate back 'piece'
into the pad eye (really small ones) and the front piece was bent down to
slip into a pair in the front to hold it on. Worked like a charm for my
small pots and the larger souppout I used like a crockpot.   I only used
that method at anchor or the slip. cooking underway was smaller pots and
used the recess to keep everying where it belongs on the stove and not my
cabin sole.

I have an alcohol stove with oven on my Oday 30 and will replace it asap the
final sale paperwork is done.  I am not sure I will be using the oven much.
I have not had a house so to speak in 4.5 yrs with an oven and I have
learned to do without since i don't eat bread much.  The oven, for me, makes
a nifty pot storage.  <GG>
