FAQs
Deadwood Stove vs. Insulated Rocket Stove
Insulated rocket stove designs utilize a 3-3.5 inch combustion chamber, which concentrates the heat in a small area of average size (9-10 inch) pots and pans. The Deadwood Stove combustion chamber is 5″ X 5″ (6.5″ diagonally). Combined with the grill surface that is engineered to capture and retain heat, the larger Deadwood Stove design minimizes hot spots. Since the fuel used in these stoves is abundant and virtually free, it does not make sense to sacrifice the larger cooking surface in order to gain only a minor increase in efficiency. Also, insulating this design makes the stove larger, heavier, and more expensive.
What accessories are available for the Deadwood Stove?
We are working on offering several accessories. They should be available soon. Be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to be notified of all the latest accessories.
How is the cooking temperature regulated?
The cooking temperature is regulated by varying the sizes and amounts of sticks used for fuel. Smaller sticks burn hotter than larger sticks. With a little practice, you will be able to maintain a low heat for eggs, pancakes, and reheating soups, stews, and chili. Using more and smaller sticks generates more heat, like what is needed to boil water, fry food, etc.
What kind of coating is used on the Deadwood Stove?
The Deadwood Stove is shipped painted with Rust-Oleum BBQ grill paint, that is rated up to 1200 degrees. It will “burn off” with use and the stove will rust, if it is not repainted or seasoned with vegetable oil. The combustion chamber and grill surface are constructed of 11 gauge steel, so a little rust will not harm the stove.
I love the stove, but your price seems a little high.
Considering the top quality materials, workmanship, and life expectancy, $165.00 is a very reasonable price. Also, you are saving money by not having to purchase fuel.
Is it easy to “tip over”?
The Deadwood Stove has four sturdy and adjustable legs that give it exceptional stability.
What about tripping over the sticks protruding from the combustion chamber?
The user’s manual recommends breaking long sticks into shorter lengths. A 12 inch long stick will protrude approximately 4 inches when fully inserted into the intake.
What if intoxicated relatives or small children are playing around the stove?
Users must use common sense precautions anytime they are operating a grill, campfire, or any other cooking device.
