Dr Larson keeps asking questions that are important to me. I am almost ready
for the next prototype and the fuel cost could determine what parts to add
or leave out of the stove. I could add an inner shell and some insulation to
the stove body for about $5 but if the fuel cost is low the $5 may not be
worth the extra fuel efficiency.

Crispin, adding "stoves"
Thanks.
Anything more on wood prices in town would be helpful. And for anything
in large quantities.
Any data on the main cooking fuels if not char? Propane, electricity,
etc. Much wood?
Looking to see the potential for making money while cooking.

Dear Ron
In Yogyakarta wood is cheap. Not far from town it is free and sold to
town.
Charcoal consumption is extremely low - mostly used by roadside cooks.
Pellets are not available retail though there is a plan to introduce
them.
Pellets are made (elsewhere in the province) from sawdust only and
exported.
There is a great deal of alternative biomass - people can afford to be
choosy about what species they burn and indeed certain meals are prepared
with certain woods.

Crispin
