      ok, is there any way that you know of to improve it?
      also, are you still watching that couple on youtube that are off grid?
      the man looks like he's Amish? anyway, how do they stay cool without
      air conditioning or do they have something like it?

        I am thinking that a couple of hot rocks would add thermal mass, increasing the length of cook.

        Off grid with Doug and Stacy; I love to watch them! They stay cool by getting used to the heat. They have a 100 year old ice block type frig, and they keep cool drinks in there (kombucha and fermented lemonaid). They have a pond they can swim in, but I haven't seen them do that.

        There is a cooling system called an Earth Battery, that uses underground pipes to run air through to cool that air.

        I understand that Monticello was designed by Tomas Jefferson; to include this type of cooling. :)
