Wood-burning #stoves face new restrictions – but a loophole from Britain’s #smog years is fuelling the problem

Wood-burning stoves are booming in the UK, a cosy response to high energy prices and cost of living pressures. But this comes with a hidden cost.

I was fortunate to work this year with Ayada Leads, a Minneapolis-based organization run by and for women of the African diaspora, to help them understand the health impacts of cooking with natural gas. We provided the technical support for them to lead and learn from this project.

Camping Stoves and Carbon Monoxide: Carbon monoxide emissions from camping stoves is not something that is much talked about (beyond the manufacturers’ leaflets saying ‘do not use inside a tent’, which is like a car manual saying ‘do not drive when raining’). But earlier today I got a poignant reminder, this is, in fact, a real issue. ... #Outdoors, #Camping, #Stoves, #CarbonMonoxide: https://aye.tf/2025/07/20/stoves-and-co

Apparently burners like this, with cast iron heat disks, used to be the standard on electric stovetops... before coil burners existed.

Why are they not a thing anymore? Why ARE they still a thing on cheap hotplates (this is the cheapest we could get our paws on)? Do they have any notable advantages/disadvantages? Any advice for cooking on it?

After trying to use it with a cast iron pan I want to chuck it out the window; I'm tempted to replace it with induction, but maybe a less heavy nonstick pan would make cooking on this thing actually tolerable.

(...It looks like a button from Portal. I want to push it. >,,>)

_The Evening Post_, 28 March 1925:
A STOVE WHICH TELLS TIME
So much wisdom is in an oblong box set on sturdy legs! After food is prepared for cooking of any kind—baking, broiling, toasting, poaching, roasting, stewing, frying—it has only to be placed in the electrically heated well and a clock set for the particular hour when the process should be complete. The cook may then leave her kitchen far behind in fact and thought, and, lo, when the dinner is done to a turn, off goes the current. The idea resembles that of the fireless cooker. Heat is supplied not only from under the oven but also from a reversible top which browns foods appetisingly, and which when turned over becomes a frying pan or toaster.

Havada kar soğuğu varken bunu paylaşmak istedim.

Kuzine sobası sever misiniz?

Ben çok severim, ama Türkiye'de satılan teneke görünümlü, metalik soba boyası ile boyanmış basit olanlarını değil.

Bu video serisindeki gibileri.

The original names had more to do with what size hole they would fit in 19th century cast iron wood-burning #kitchen #stoves, the kind that had round cast iron plates you removed to put the pots and pans in the hole, so the fire hit them directly.

Obviously, very few people still use stoves like that (although in #Vermont, I personally know a few people who do, some with wood, some converted to LP); I guess Lodge decided it was time to use sizing conventions more in line with modern cookware.

Stove shopping:

so - of about 15 pots and pans in the house only 3 would work with an induction stove. Wild about the gas stove changing the magnetic properties of RevereWare - not sure I completely believe that. Maybe the stainless used was never magnetic.

I wonder what the fastest non-induction electric stove is?

Mutu and Ruia are playing different games with their mother's cards. From the series: Washday at the pa
On the left Ruia displays her cards in her left hand whilst trying to keep Erua's hands off them; Samuel watches from the nearby window seat. In the centre of the image Mutu lays her cards on the lino floor as Mother feeds the stove with wood (at right).
