Great looking stove! you really made a top notch cook stove that is well thought out!
Nice cook stove...Your knowledge of how cook stoves work is impressive. It would be nice to have a beautiful cook stove like that! For now, we will use the top of our wood stove and our outdoor cook stove that we would not dare bring into the house since it is sooo smokey. Thank you for sharing!
I love that stove. Thank you for sharing! I am going to pass this on to some friends who are looking for a wood heating/cooking solution for their farmhouse.

Majorly inspired. My #1 interest for 2 years now and you have an amazing design.
Awesome stove, I like all the detail you added...so long and drawn out is fine with me. One of the best videos i have ever seen on KZread. Thanks.
I love this stove! I would love to have both your heating systems in my home, but since my wife and I are going to need to move to a new home soon I am going to be holding off on something like this until we get in our next house and a rocket mass heater for the house too. I have found my true calling for how to heat our homes. Thank you for showing all that you do.

I've been inspired by this video for many months but I lost track of it so was only going by memory for our heater...so glad I've finally found it again for all the details. (Unfortunately, the glass top we found isn't as pretty as your black one, but we'll keep our eyes out for others). Thanks for the detailed info!
Absolutely incredible. Great job!
Pretty awesome Cook Stove, congratulations! By the way I like the door handle!
This is brilliant. I’ve been searching for something like this.

Good Job!! I hear bread made in a wood stove is much better than anything made today!!
Your secondary air tube...see if you can ceramic that somehow. Would it help to pre-heat primary or secondary air first using some kind of heat exchange?
Wow, I really like this! Brilliant!!
It was wonderful. Thank you.

Ive seen the old traditional soapstone stoves of European design that were strictly for heating. Ive always been curious about this application though cooking & heating with as near to complete combustion as possible. Can you recommend some good resource material on this specific application? Thx. Well done btw.

Love your stove , it's an awesome achievement . I had a thought on your viewing window on the cook side . Would an air wash help there to keep it cleaner or hinder the burn ?

Thank you! The window is scoured by the secondary air and fuel mix. It's right in the most violent area, and it's awesome to see. I like your idea, it may be possible to get it to stay a bit cleaner with a bit more flow management. It may not be able to get it to stay clean, but, it's a great thought, thank you for sharing it!
About how heavy is that thing? Wondering about supporting it in the middle of the room from the underside.
Do you have any cooking demonstrations with the stove? Baking and top cooking?
What’s the best way to learn how to build a masonry heater?

Mr. Walker, do you sell all of the metal and glass parts for a batch rocket burn chamber, such as the p channel, door, etc.? If not, do you know anyone who does or could build one for me?

Steal 'em Jim, steal 'em! There are links in the description that go to build photos and details of the air and whatnot. One crucial thing, the flame path is long and must be insulated the entire way, just as this one is. Otherwise, you are gonna smoke and burn dirty, often. Let's see it when you build it please! Thanks for the comment, good luck on the build.

Thank you for the help. I intend to build a Quincho which is an outside kitchen. It will have a brick oven and a stove. The only problem I have here is that they do not use bricks in the south of Chile. They use concrete and they have fire brick but no "Bricks" so I have to make mine of stone. So we will see. Thanks again from Chile. Jim

You can easily make your own adobes with local clay/sand, and depending on what you are going for...you can change the properties with additives. Straw fiber for outer skins, perlite/vermiculite for insulated inner bricks. Then you might line just the wood feed with real fire brick splits to protect against abrasion, but try to keep the mass low in the firebox, in any burner. Good luck!

The soil here is volcanic in nature and therefore either ashy or very, very loamy. You do not see Clay here at all. You do not see adobe either since it rains buckets here in the winter, 142" that is INCHES a winter. Where I am is nothing like the Amazon. We are just a little north of Antarctica. We get a 5 min snow every 4 years and it rarely gets over 90 degrees here, so we are more like Washington State than the Amazon. As a result no clay here. We do have lots, and lots of round rocks like you would see in an region that was dominated by glacial activity. So round field stones are my choice by default. I will let you know how it goes. Jim
@9:45 it shows how it heats up the baking chamber (y)
Very good vid
Sir, it's awesome. I am thinking to build one in rural area in my hometown where most of the family using traditional wood fire stop that I think it's not healthy, where the smoke is everywhere during cooking time. Please assist me with the low cost for them. Thank you, really appreciate it
One thing that I don't understand is why the exhaust gas doesn't flow back out of the feed door when you're lighting it, since it has to go down through the stove inside. Wouldn't the path of least resistance be back out the feed door instead? I know that it works, but I don't understand how.
I'd like to build a wood stove to heat my shop that I can also cook on. Yours looks great... Any ideas?

I want to see how you build it internally
can you bring the two .j tube [mass heater], and the sidewinder cook stove? what is missing is a temperature gauge on your oven. is there no temperature control in the oven. the oven does not look like that there is no insert. the fumes would get into food.. if the oven temperature could be controlled. then so has the fire box temperature. could controlling the firebox temperature alter the burn quality. if it could do. perhaps incorporating the j tube [mass heater]., with the sidewinder cook stove would bring the whole thing together. maybe, even hot water could be possible.lots of people ask this question, as to bring the two appliances to gether.
Love it

very awsome thank you for sharing ,your wonderful craftsmanship, i do have a question pertaining to the mass heater that you switched around,to a front loader. do you miss the top loading style that it once was, i personally thought that was the cats meow. what are the pros and cons betweenst the two ? ok back the oven now do you have to close that bypass off to open the black oven door ? you certainly are the rocket man ! thanks for shareing?

Thank you Darrell. The open firebox in a J is really cool, it's fun to load, safe for kids, and offers some great ambiance. It isn't very flexible in terms of fuel size or burn control. The enclosed firebox batch style rockets can handle more fuel of varying sizes, offer better control, and can hold larger loads for longer burns. Both are great! At lot depends on the size of your space and usage. J is wonderful for smaller spaces, and if you there to tend it. The batch is better for larger spaces, absent operators, and I think offers better control for the cooking applications. The oven door can be opened without opening the bypass, but depending on what's going on in the firebox, it's usually good practice to open the bypass when opening the oven door. That said, usually by time something is cooked the fire is dying down and in practice I rarely actually do that. No smoke in the house unless you really blow it. Hope that helps!
You are very funny. Thank you for the upload it is wonderful to see this stove as it gives one food for thought. Ta
Hi Matt. I've been out of touch for quite a while. Glad to see you are still so productive and putting out informative and useful vids! Can you see any possibility of tucking a white oven in there to replace the black oven? Maybe using hard brick splits somehow? Also, do you think mass could be added to chimney somehow to get more "mass heating" out of that general style of stove? All the best, Mark
@broaudio
6 жыл бұрын
Hey, thanks for the comment Mark. I think a low mass white oven would be best, simply a metal box inserted in the oven opening would be a dead simple way to achieve that. Covered ceramic cookware is my favorite solution when cooking foods I don't want flavored. Chimney could be built with masonry for sure. It could also support a bench or additional bell, the firebox has plenty of power. Hope that helps.
Do know how many btu’s this makes?
Love the idea. thanks for the video. I have a few questions for you. Can the oven be isolated from the cook top and vis-a versa? And can you regulate the cook top temperature by increasing or decreasing the heat venting?
@broaudio
7 жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks! You can use the bypass to circumvent the oven, but the cooktop is always in the flue path in this layout. Yes, fuel and venting can have a large impact on cook top temp, and the design is laid out such that the cook top is variable temp from high to low, following the flue path. In use, I've found it's very intuitive to find the ideal temp. You slide your pan around and it sizzles or boils or simmers or whatever, easy peasy. Hope that answers your question.

If you run it for a while the outer skin will idle at around 100°F. It's a nice little masonry heater for a small space.
Great stove! It will make a good inspiration. I am now planing to build mine here in south Portugal (yes winter also gets a bit cool and very humid during the nights here) So it will be good to sleep warm and keep humidity out.I was wandering about the lack of a fume cupboard to remove the humidity from the cooking. Don't you feel a need for it?Thank you.

I don't feel it's necessary in my home/environment. If my house were tighter, or I didn't heat with wood, I might feel differently. I tend to do any greasy/smokey cooking in the oven so it vents out the chimney. Stove top will produce moisture from boiling and cooking, but the house is pretty dry inside in the winter. Hope that helps.
