Hi I use a mix of 50% biodiesel and 50% kerosene in an Optimus pressure burner which works well. Am thinking of changing the proportions to less kerosene, but neat BD just made a mess and didn't burn the way it was supposed to (i.e. just a big yellow flame instead of the blue 'roaring' flame) I know it's not ideal as you will have to purchse the kerosene, but it's a step in the right direction.
Have yet to try it in my Tilley lamp.

Hello Keith, I am having trouble to find pressure stove suitable for BD. I have browsed through the links from JTF with little sucess. The PETROMAX is quite expensive and is out of stock anyway. others I find come with wick which you say is not working with BD On JTF website you write that your pressure stove is from India. I like that type ( acording to the picters) and would like to buy some (3-5) pieces depending on the price / availability. I would appreciate any info you can give me on the source of yours. (email address, or phone, or fax) I live in Hungary and most of the US websites does not deliver here. I plan to upgrade my 60L reactor to a 250L and I would like to switch from electric heating to an indirect heating system through a heat exchanger that I designed this involves suncollectors, puffer tanks, and presure stoves. I plan to post the design ( if successfull ) so that all can produce BD with minimal or zero energy cost. any help from list members will be appreciated.
