   Im trying to figure out the best way to heat a about a bottles worth of water, my idea was to get a concave mirror and focus it onto some small radiator like a heater core. The thing is I cant find a large concave mirror, so I was thinking about using a satalite dish but I cant think of a way to make it shiny enough, you guys go any ideas?
