Copenhagen Solar Cooker - Homemade/DIY

- This is a neat solar cooker where the cooking pot stays flat on the ground and the flexible reflectors (or panels) are adjusted around it. It is highly portable, lightweight and quick and easy to set up and take down. It's made of cardboard, poster board, aluminum foil and a shoelace.

A few years ago I thought it couldn't possibly be practical but after making 5 different solar cookers and cooking countless things, I can't imagine how I thought that before. I now cook meals this way whenever I'm not too busy and there's sunlight. Strange how completely different you can come to think about something. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Out of all the cookers you made, which one did you find the best? I just made one like this, only bigger and with mirror like panels. This seems to be almost equivalent to Haines 2 performance wise.
This Copenhagen solar cooker was the best for most cooking. But if I want serious hot temperatures for frying something then my Fresnel lens solar cooker was better th-cam.com/video/hWDkCnpLRPA/w-d-xo.html . Having said that, I've never tried a parabolic solar cooker, which would probably fry just as well.
If people all over the sunny world could use the sun to cook at least sometimes, so much fuel could be saved. Thank you for sharing.
I like this idea very much. Cheap and easy to make. Beats the heck out of having to pay $300.00 for a commercially manufactured solar cooker! Thanks for your presentation.
Yes, indeed. The manufactured stoves are a scam. I mean, they work just fine, but the prices. Utterly ridiculous.
Nice video, thanks for making it! I look forward to getting into solar cooking
very easy... I'm gonna try making this since its hot in here.. I might try baking.. thanks for sharing this.
Thank you for this, the temperatures are great and I loved the blooper at the end :)
Lo intentare! gracias
I need a bigger one, to cook entire meals in. propane is crazy high and my woodstove is so hot. not trying to give anyone money for something I can make. thank you
Excellent Presentation...I lovVed it!😍Today I am bakinG some PoRk Chops in my cheap "Red NeCk" SolaR Cooker to see how well they cook as I am a complete Newbie at SolaR CookinG and was able to bake some scrambled eggs the other day!👍As a deeply carinG Humanitarian it hurts my heart😥 to know that many people around the World don't have access to our modern cookinG appliances so I haVe been tryinG to figure out the moSt cost effective solutions that Humanity can cook with pluS take them campinG with them too!✌😃🙏😇🌹🌞🌹🥚🥚🥚🌹☕🍵☕
Great design. Reflectors Packs flat.
It's much faster to just roast eggs right in the cardboard crate they come in. No boiling, 40 minutes, same as hard boiled.
Great video! Thanks a lot! I was wondering what is this black pot that you are using. Maybe it's available somewhere?
I bought it at Walmart a few years ago. It's from a double boiler set. I cut the handle off of it. I think it was this one here www.walmart.ca/en/ip/granite-ware-15-quart-double-boiler-black/6000188184500
@@RimstarOrg thanks a lot for answering so fast :)
Good use for crockpot liner. What if you placed it in a larger pot maybe two inches wider all round, filled with water? Wouldn’t that water help inner liner to reach higher temps quicker? Or what if you use mirrors if you dont have access to that fresnel lens?
Putting it in a larger pot with water in between would make it take longer to heat up since the water would have to heat up. However, once heated up, it would keep the heat for longer. And using mirrots to reflect more light to the pot would certainly help.
U can use a fresnel lense to magnify the heat from the sun
Yup, I've used my fresnel lens a few times for cooking, here to fry an egg th-cam.com/video/eg4IKB3Es-A/w-d-xo.html and a little more advanced here with the help of a mirror too th-cam.com/video/hWDkCnpLRPA/w-d-xo.html
They make a good self cleaning wipe when your out of napkins at the table or toilet paper.....:-)
Just poking fun. I love animals. Specially when cooked medium well. WC Fields. Though he was referring to kids. BTW the solar cooker is cool and clever.
i hadn't seen this video. but I've seen plenty of others. and have been toying with my own designs. having been in the heat transfer industry, I have seen a fault/stupid inefficiency in a couple of designs which I have made sure didn't happen in mine. here's me making some instant coffee with CLOUD COVER all around. instant coffee on a cloudy day with a bunch of mylar and newspaper
Would itbe safe for cooking meat? Maybe fish?
When the egg goes green around the yoke it's WAAAAAAAAy over cooked. even for a hard boiled egg you killed it.. but the solar cooker is on point! BTW> everyone of these vids I see about cooking eggs. the eggs themselves all end up resembling a 'sacrificial burnt offering' rather than cooking!. But sure the cooker/oven works fine..
2 hours and 45 minutes to boil an egg......I love your sense of humor.......is this a part of weight loss program?
this needs to be a internatinal promotin and big scale
thankyou
I thought about setting them in my windows hill the sun is out and heat my house has anyone tried this?
I think I've heard of it being done and I've thought about trying it myself. As long as you have direct sunlight, it should work. Let us know how it goes if you do try it!
Re-viewed this. Could have made one as you did, also. Decided to reinforce Claus' ingenuity. Just bought one on his ebay auction site. Supporting the innovator, if possible, generates capitalism. Beautiful guardian angel you have, there, btw. Cheers.
pnwoods Good decision. Her reflectors are much better than my homemade aluminum foil ones. I far prefer the ones I got from her, and don't see why I'd use any of the other solar cookers I have.
Actually I suppose I could have replied I could use the cat to polish the reflectors, a Colin Mochrie joke from Who's Line is it Anyway. :) I'm really a cat lover though.
I agree re the coolness and cleverness of the cooker. I wish I'd thought it up.
I can't think of a safe reply. :( Oh! I guess this is my reply! :)
HI
i have a question
i have seen many types of sloar cooker and i think the key point is how to save the heat well
many people use oven bag or hotpot
but i see one guy do a test
he use
1. A Graniteware enamel pot with a metal lid.
2. A Graniteware enamel pot with a clear glass lid.
3. A Graniteware enamel pot with a metal lid and enclosed in an oven bag.
4. A ‘HotPot’, which consisted of a Graniteware enamel pot with a clear glass
he find 4 is the best
surprisingly 2 is the second and it befeat 3
the 4 and 2 almost have the same temperture
but i ask some people about it , they say they cant get the same effect just with a glass lid ,they think without a glass bowl or oven bag, the pot can save the heat it get well
this is the data
solarcooking.org/research/greenhouse%20enclosure%20comparison_february_2008.pdf
can u tell me how do you think about this test?is it ture?
+王子齊 His test procedures look fine, and his analysis looks fine too. He found some surprises, as you point out, and they surprise me the same. I haven't done the same tests so without my own data so I can't dispute it.
Way too long for hard boiled eggs...
you can just put the eggs inside pot without the water - they will still cook inside shells in less time since no need to boil water first - thank you for neat demonstration
How do I know you did not switch the egg during wash? The egg was out of the frame!
+Andy Socal Seriously? Do a search on solar cooking and you'll see this works fine. Plenty of people do it, cooking pretty much anything.
Cook the Cat ! Just kidding :-)
No way, dude. To kill cats you need the focused power of a Fresnel lens. It's absolutely awesome, the most fun you'll ever have, and it helps the community and the planet.
@@Kube_Dog Unbelievable. Did you know the hunters in Australia are now using the Fresnel lens to kill feral cats and wild dogs in the Australian bush instead of rifles? The sun is sooo bloody hot and powerful in the outback that a focused ray, even for a few seconds, is like a high energy pulse weapon. It's just like the weapon they used in the Californian so-called bush fires.....it blows a hole right through the cats and sears the wound in one shot..... they even use these lens's to cut the 'moggies' in half!! Its cheaper, humane and more accurate..... amazing!
(Just kidding!).
