Hi,

Once again the bamboo cooker shows how simple the process of solar cooking really is. Aluminium foil, Mylar, reflective vinyl, even mirrors, are all suitable candidates which can replace the plates.

For this design of solar cooker, the food should be placed in an oven bag, then placed on a platform inside the basket. To gauge the best place to put food, simply put your hand into the cooker, and find the ‘hot spot’. Don’t worry, this design won’t melt your hand. It’s the parabolic cookers you want to worry about :-)

What about the food, where do you put the food - is it hanging somewhere in the middle, above the basket, or do you put it in the basket?

I'm a big fan of solar cookers and solar barbecues, but I never tried to build one. After looking at your $1 bamboo cooker, I'm one step closer to taking action and trying to make a solar cooker. Wish me luck :) Cheers! Hehehe, when I found this site in google, I thought it was some big fancy cooker… but I find even this one quite useful.

Maybe I should try after all. It may not function like a super cooker but at least it saves the every little bit of energy and by the looks of it, not bad at all. green blog's last blog post..<a href="http://fixbio.com/10-more-ways-to-stop-bleeding-at-the-pump/">10 More Ways To Stop Bleeding At The Pump</a> This one looks like a neat idea.
