John and Flip Anderson tending the Shark stove. Notice the even cooking on the pancakes, that even heat is partially due the ceramic shark teeth construction just under the cooking surface. This is primarily a stick burning stove with both a plancha (even cooking surface) and pot rests.Women Air Jordan 1 Mid "Crimson Tint" 852542-801 Pink White Online, Price: $88.58 - Air Jordan Shoes, Aljadid

HOW TO MAKE FUEL BRIQUETTES WITHOUT A PRESS (4MB PDF)

YOU CAN MAKE BRIQUETTES BY HAND or WITH A PLASTIC MOLD!

You can use a plastic bottle or other straight-sided plastic container about 4”-8” in diameter to shape the briquette. You will need a piece of wood or banana plant stem or a tin can that will fit into the container as a piston to press water out of the briquette mix, a knife, a plastic bag and some wire.

Please see the attached Presentation for pictures and full details:

A small cafe on the edge of the maasai mara reserve in S.W Kenya that have switched to Cookswell Ovens, they bake about 80 loaves of bread a day along with cupcakes and then roast chicken and meat. per day they use appx 6kgs of charcoal for ALL the cooking. they also use a No 14 KCJ for boiling and frying needs.

6 people are now employed in a almost smokeless kitchen, before they bought a jiko, all thier cooking was done on a 3 stone fire and they used about 25kgs of firewood.

Cook, save money, eat well.
