Lanny, and all Stovers,
Excellent presentation of an fine contribution to address the issues of
institutional-size cookers.
Institutional stoves are one of the focal topics at this year's
Aprovecho Stove Camp, under the leadership of Fred Colgan and his
InStove team. This video will for sure be included in the content for
all participants to see and discuss. The video gives numbers and shows
alternatives and will raise questions for discussions.
I ask Mike and Dean at Aprovecho to please forward this message to all
who have registered for the Stove Camp (because some might not be
subscribed to the Stoves Listserv).
Many questions and comments, but just 2 here:
1. Comment: 40 quarts are essentially 40 liters. InStove has 60 liter
and 100 liter products. There are also 200 liter and larger
institutional stoves. How we as Stove designers address these size
issues will be a great discussion at Stove Camp (and on the Stove Listserv.)
2. Question/request: Lanny, please provide more info about how your
design does not have primary air entering below and therefore does not
have a grate (if I understood correctly from the video). And how is
the created charcoal removed?
To all: THIS type of stove design and testing content is what the
Stoves Listserv is truly about.
Paul (Still in Uganda, so slightly out of time, but I will be at
Stove Camp with additional institutional stove content.)

This is my commercial duty wood fired cooking stove the “School Lunch
Cooker” prototype #2
I designed this stove to cook the larger quantities necessary for
school lunch programs in developing areas like Haiti
It heats a 40 quart or smaller pot, and a 22” pan, and I am working on
a cook top adapter for multiple pots.
It is sized for commercial and institutional applications.
This stove will pasteurize water, heat bath, laundry and kitchen
water, and you can do laundry and dishes in the 40 quart pot.
This cooker is user friendly, is quick to fire and easy to use. It is
very efficient, very functional and very durable. It burns a variety
of wood or charcoal. It performs a variety of cooking task, and cooks
outside in all weather,. It is very portable and is somewhat
controllable.
This stove is less hassle than portable propane fired stoves
considering the time and expense to refill tanks.
I have two more videos coming soon, one is of a newer prototype and I
will have some information about the unique TLC “top lit combustor”
burner.
