In this Talk and Online Presentation, Graeme and Rachel from Carbon Farmers introduced us to the ‘Tawi Stove’, which they explain is a more environmentally ethical way to cook outdoors. Graeme and Rachel take us through the uses, design and science of the ‘Tawi Stove’, which, as well as using a comparatively small amount of wood as fuel, produces ‘BioChar’ as a byproduct.
Graeme and Rachel showed us not only how the stove works, but also gave us an insight into how to cook on it, the flexibility and diversity of its four cooking areas and an understanding of how it is better for the environment, compared to normal campfire cooking.
The ÔÇÿTawi StoveÔÇÖ was invented by Graeme, building on experience from his early life in Kenya. It uses an incredibly small amount of wood, only needing what most of us would consider to be kindling. It gets to cooking heat extremely quickly and provides four main cooking areas on the stove ÔÇô the main cooking area, a heating plate, a warming area and a grill.
Here is the full recording of Graeme and Rachel’s talk.┬á
If you have any questions about this talk, how the Tawi Stove works, the science, its attributes or availability, please let us know and we will do our best to answer. If we don’t know, we are sure we will know someone who does!
