Cooking with the Petromax Loki2
• After about 30 minutes the Petromax Loki2 has reached the right temperature to prepare your food
on the cooking surface. While cooking, the damper should always be completely open. The levers
are then pointing upwards and downwards (vertical position).
•
Place suitable cookware such as pots, pans and kettles on the cooking surface (max. 40 x 25 cm) and prepare
a substantial meal. If you wish to use a Petromax Dutch Oven on the Petromax Loki2 we recommend the
model with plane bottom surface for optimal heat distribution.
• To ensure that the oven stands securely, always place pots, pans and kettles as centred as possible
on the cooking surface.
• You can remove the round cooking plate of the Tent Oven and cook and fry food directly over the
fire. In that case in particular, we recommend suitable cookware with a base diameter of at least 16
cm in order to completely cover the opening in the cooking surface – otherwise, flames or sparks
could shoot out.
• To reduce heat, close the oven door and damper completely. If you want the fire to flare, add some
more wood and adjust the air supply by moving the slider.
Care and storage
• Once you have finished cooking or heating, let the fire in the Petromax Loki2 burn down completely.
Never pour water into the Tent Oven to extuingish the fire.
• Once the Tent Oven has cooled down, you can remove the ashes from the removable ash dish. Remove
soot from the flue components as well.
• We recommend cleaning the Tent Oven after every use. Remove the ashes from the combustion
chamber and soot from the flue. Wait until ashes and soot are completely cold before removing them
and then dispose of them properly. Never throw hot ashes into the household waste!
• Let the Tent Oven cool down and clean it before storing.
• You can wipe your Petromax Loki2 with an oily cloth in order to increase corrosion resistance of its
surface.
