It would also be nice if we could credit Lanny with a new gasifier stove.

Possibly it may help to step back a little and look at this as a system:

In reference to charcoal (as the fuel) and water in our cooking pot.

When we cook we also get a co-product of water vapor or steam that could
be used for water gas (blue gas as any other name). We have charcoal fuel,
heat, cooked food, steam/water vapor (feed back anybody?).

But I’m the first to admit that I am NOT a stove designer so this may be
too endothermic.

Keep up the great work!!

Jeff
