EcoZoom Zoom Versa Rocket Stove - Wood, Biomass, or Charcoal Fuel

Product Information

Place it preferably on a solid platform. Most of the stoves you get are coated with heat-resistant paint and that helps the stove withstand high cooking temperatures over a long period of use. Step 3 | Add to the fuel

The All American Sun Oven ismade in America with all of the component parts also made in the USA (except for the thermometer). no growth stimulants, chemical fertilizers, or hormones are used in the cultivation of organic products; Durable Construction: The powder-coated carbon steel body and cast iron stovetop and legs are built to withstand outdoor conditions. Before buying a tent stove, it’s important to decide what type of fuel you want it to be using. Generally, most people tend to opt for a wood burner since it’s a carbon-neutral fuel that is more eco-friendly. Others appreciate the flexibility of having various fuel options, thus opting for multi-fuel stoves.When you first get the sun oven, you need to set three cups of vinegar in a bowl and leave it in the sun oven for 90 minutes. The Zoom Versa features an abrasion resistant and durable ceramic combustion chamber with a 10 cm in diameter vertical section that forces the gases to mix with the flame, decreasing harmful emissions and adds a refractory metal liner to the inside of the combustion chamber that protects the ceramic insulation, increases the life of your stove, and improves combustion efficiency. Thanks to the fully-insulated structures, these stoves burn 60% less fuel compared to open fire cooking.

Another great thing about this stove is that it accommodates all kinds of fuels. You can feed it dry leaves, twigs, branches, wood, etc. and it will burn without interruption.Per the sun oven’s directions, when using liquids for cooking, you need to cut the liquids down by a third, which I did. When set up for use, this lantern and stove is 11 inches tall with a diameter of four and three-quarter inches.

However, if you’re heading out into the wilderness or prepping for a disaster, it’s best to pay more for a highly durable and reliable option. Building Material It is the job of the burning chamber to make sure that the combustion is almost complete before the flames reach the cooking surface to ensure the delivery of the maximum amount of heat. This is a small camping stove really designed for one or two people, but it’s very efficient and soon had a frying pan heating up nicely. We found the kettle pot and the grill a little unstable, so we had to be very careful how we placed them on the stove. Although this stove is extremely efficient when running on wood, using charcoal allows for a more controlled experience while cooking. The heat was enough to max out my infrared thermometer, (over 1022 degrees Fahrenheit) but it seems like most of the heat was contained inside the wall as the heat leaving the stove was only measured at 300 degrees ( still good for a slow cook, but not hot enough to sear my steaks the way I like it.)Starting with its build quality, it’s rugged and wonderful since it’s made from ceramic, has a stainless casing outside, and features a cast iron cooktop. Overall, it’s made like a tank and built to last for ages. Apart from that, it’s perfect for emergency situations as you can cook food on it just by using charcoal and wood as fuel. For all your cooking and heating needs, this tent stove comes with all the essentials to keep you covered. These include a stove body with 5 sections of a 3.5” diameter chimney pipe. Long term fuel storage is crucial in all survival situations, but fuels must be stored properly and safely to keep, especially long term gasoline storage.
