As for handheld torches I have never had any luck with any of them, the ones I have used do smelt the ore eventually but I have never been able to cast as it simply doesn't get fluid enough to fill the mould. If you want decent results I would recommend investing in some sort of oxy/propane rig which will give you enough oomph to pour in under 2 minutes.
Also the handheld torches are rather dirty, the silver in the scorifier always seems to soot up. You have none of this with oxy propane. You can pick up roxy rotherburgers relatively cheaply if you shop around.
