Crispin you have frequently been invited to join the discussion on biochar elsewhere and I have similarly asked that [stoves] remains focused on the subject of small scale use of stoves for cooking. I know there will always be a crossover and a little thread drift and I'm happy to see discussion about co production of heat and char for a number of benefits but I don't think discussion of the strategic or agronomic benefit of char verses compost versus ash is within the scope of this list.
