Perfect. Is there a preferred fuel(s)? What is the preferred height of the top of the pot from the floor, and height to the cooking surface, if that is relevant?
Thanks Crispin Our fire box is metal, (parts we manufacture from 2mm sheet steel)brick, and fire resistant mortar. The internal chimney is up the wall. (Maasai women installation teams make the chimney and install everything.) The chimney is brick made in the village, and mud mortar as long as inside. 26 cm square. We use cement and sand mortar where it penetrates the thatch and becomes exposed to weather. Above the thatch we can safely use a metal tube we make ourselves out of thin sheet that would be inappropiate inside. The chimney inside is at most pleasantly warm. Kids can sit right next to mom while she cooks. The women usually cover the chimney with mud to match the walls. They love the cleanliness and the added floor space, having removed the three stones. _______________________________________________ Stoves mailing list to Send a Message to the list, use the email address [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/stoves_lists.bioenergylists.org for more Biomass Cooking Stoves, News and Information see our web site: http://www.bioenergylists.org/
