I'm thinking more about institutions. Schools are cooking with inefficient wood stoves. The pots they're using are sometimes over 2ft in diameter. How can this be handled with rocket powered stove?
Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire.

I want to advise my African partner on how improve this. We have almost no funds for this and so I am asking about local material like stones. (I need him to send me a picture of the stone kilns they use for pottery.) I've been researching the technology behind rocket stoves and how best to adapt to local conditions.
A note for Kevin: I have found in my research that a smooth chimney throat is less effective. Turbulence in the fire column gives more complete combustion, a square stack of bricks will give a more complete burn than round stovepipe.
