 How the Solo Stove Works

The double-wall design of the stove allows it to channel air through the intake holes on the bottom of the stove, superheating the oxygen before feeding the fire at the TOP of the flames. This burst of preheated oxygen causes a secondary combustion, allowing the fire to burn cleaner and hotter. Less smoke, more stealth.

 Built to Last

The Solo Stove is made of high grade stainless steel. A one-piece construction of the outer and inner walls makes the stove very durable. This method of construction eliminates the need for excessive welding and increases the overall lifespan of the stove. The inner grate is made of Nichrome wire, with has a melting point of 2552 degrees Fahrenheit.

It also comes with a pot holder, so you can bring a quart vessel of water to a boil in under five minutes.

 A note about sterilizing water

Some older documents advise boiling water for ten minutes in order to sterilize it. This is a pointless waste of time and fuel. Merely bringing the water to a boil is enough to kill everything in it and make it safe to drink.

    I believe that is an updraft gassifier stove. For it to work the most efficiently the fuel needs to be put in the stove first, a little below the secondary burn holes, and then lit from the top. Here is a good paper on the subject if you want to get into the nuts and bolts of a top lit gassifier… http://www.vrac.iastate.edu/ethos/files/ethos2009

    Gassifires are great things to learn how to build because of how efficient they are. You don't have to spend as much time collecting firewood or carrying it and you won't run out so quickly. Great post!

    Gassifires are excellent achievements to understand how to develop because of how effective they are. You don't have to invest as plenty of time gathering wood or holding it and you won't run out so easily. Excellent post!
