The lorena cooktop is a highly effective design for rocket stoves, as it maximizes heat transfer and cooking efficiency. This specialized cooktop, featuring a metal plate with a central hole positioned above the burn chamber, enables rapid heating of large pots through direct exposure to the intense flames. The lorena's design prioritizes efficient heat utilization from the rocket stove, resulting in faster cooking times and reduced fuel consumption. Additionally, the metal plate surrounding the central hole serves as a secondary cooking surface, offering versatility for various culinary tasks. Once a large pot reaches the desired temperature, it can be moved to the surrounding cooktop, and the central hole can be covered with a piece of metal to maintain heat. This dual functionality makes the lorena a practical and energy-efficient cooking solution, suitable for both large-scale and smaller cooking needs. The integration of a lorena into an outdoor kitchen setting is often proposed, further enhancing its practicality and convenience.

Rocket mass heaters are better than heat pumps because rocket mass heaters are free to operate and have less than 6% of the carbon footprint.
