The tallest burned the cleanest, that must worth something

add a side chamber on the second row so it still has air flow even when it is full of sticks. burns better.

breaking the brick is not needed , just let it stick out on one side. okay, my idea is several of these rocket stoves in the corners of a camp hut to provide heat sinks and maybe take down a few and place the bricks near the cot ? i might look into getting some firebricks

Taller is much cleaner burning with more fuel ... Also create more bigger lower chamber - suspend the fuel with mesh scrap and separate the rear bottom bricks to create an air intake - no need to split any bricks.

I feel like you need a larger intake opening. Maybe just swing out that 2nd brick up from the bottom on the left. The taller the stack, the more wind is blocked so you need a bigger hole at the bottom. I use a 16 brick, but this size is definitely easier on the back.

Sounds good. I will keep experimenting. Thanks for the feedback brother

Excellent

I've seen metal designs. Yours? I don't think any of them can do it under 5. The more air intake will get a hotter combustion.

What's your theory? The higher, the more draft, the hotter the burn? As i mentioned Loz created a circular vortex which made a difference

Until a certain height ya.

Like An Gar said,... after level 1 or 2, add a metal grid and add a hole to the front to start your feed and burn combustion chamber.

I will try in the next rocket stove video. 5 minutes is pretty quick anyways. I wouldn't imagine it can get too much faster.

Im super curious about trying to create a vortex brick stove. Could you have each substance subsequent layer rotated 20 degrees, creating a spiraling shape. The vortex stoves can burn better over a shorter distance because they mix more air/oxygen in

Certainly worth a try

@@OffgridSecrets Rotate them clockwise for the northern hemisphere or anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere. It won't work near the equator.

can u just use charcoal instead of sticks?

So the taller more longer

Check this video out it might help with your airflow kzread.info/dash/bejne/oaKBxLWFpaadf8Y.html
