How will you cook when the power goes out?

My brother lived in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit.   He was displaced for many months. So I know how important it is for all of us to be prepared.  

To fare well in an emergency, you'll need food, water, clothing, shelter and something to cook with.

The first four of these are obvious to many people.  But lack of the fifth one could kill you if you are caught unawares.  Many people think they are already prepared to cook in an emergency, because they have a Coleman stove in the basement, or they can just build a campfire like they did at scout camp, right?

Well, maybe.  

But if the emeregency lasts longer than your supply of Propane, where are you going to buy some more?  What if large pieces of firewood are hard to obtain?  Then what?  The hard truth is, that the water may not be safe to drink for weeks or months.  What everyone needs is an easy-to-maintain stove that won't run out of fuel, so that you can always boil the water before drinking it, if necessary.  A good emergency stove will literally save your life and the lives of your children.

Fortunately,  a ROCKET STOVE will solve these problems, and you can build one (or buy one) for very little money.  And you can efficiently cook your food and boil water, with just a few twigs!

Some people make their own Rocket Stove, and there are many ways to do that.  But if you don't want to:

               1.   Waste your time with trips to all the stores getting materials,
               2.   Hurt yourself while trying to cut sheet metal with tinsnips, or
               3.   End up with a poorly-made stove that may not work,

then you need to consider the wisdom of purchasing a Rocket Stove made by someone who has experience in making them.

ADVANTAGES OF ROCKET STOVES:

A.  Fuel Efficient -- The heat from campfires is mostly lost as it radiates outward, so that very little of the energy reaches the cooking vessel.  With Rocket Stoves, the insulated chamber forces the heat upward instead of outward, so that the heat is directed toward your cooking pot.

B.  Hot -- As a result of the efficiency mentioned, Rocket Stoves cook hotter than regular campfires.  They have been measured at 1200° F. (that's only 20 degrees short of being able to melt aluminum!).  That should boil your water in record time!  

One of my clients said that a Rocket Stove is the camping equivalent of a microwave!

C.  Fast-Cooking -- Because they are hot and fuel efficient, Rocket Stoves also cook your food faster than regular campfires.  In fact, I gave my Rocket Stove the acid test on our last Boy Scout campout.  I waited as the Scouts got their fire burning, then I pulled out my Rocket Stove and lit it with just one match.  I was then done cooking in less than 5 minutes.  The Boy Scouts were still struggling with their cook fire and frying pans.  Now each boy in the troop wants to have his own Rocket Stove!

D.  Safe -- If you should leave your Rocket Stove unattended, the fire will go out within a minute or two.

E.  Unlimited Fuel Supply -- During an emergency, fuel will likely be scarce.  Not just due to the stores being closed, but firewood may also be in short supply.  The advantage of Rocket Stoves is that you can cook a whole meal with just a few small twigs.  So, If you are ever in a Katrina-type of situation like some people were recently, you should have an easier time scrounging up some sticks and twigs than trying to find big pieces of firewood.  And even if you're lucky enough to have some large pieces of wood, you can make them last longer with a Rocket Stove.

F.  Burn Clean -- Since the fuel tray is positioned to allow air to mix thoroughly with the hot gases as they combust, Rocket Stoves produce very little or no smoke once the fire is well-started.  You have a minimal effect on air pollution.

Caution:  Since this is a fire-powered stove, it is for outdoor use only.

Each Rocket Stove is hand-made with clean, high-quality new & recycled parts;  and passes inspection before being sent to you.  Each stove also comes with instructions for use and care.
