The wood and the jar are sitting on the ground, inside a
clear plastic bag, which is full of air, like a balloon and
tied at the top so that the air in the bag keeps the bag
from touching the jar.]
Put the Solar Funnel Cooker in the sun pointing towards the sun,
so that it captures as much sunlight as possible. The design of
the funnel allows it to collect solar energy for about an hour
without needing to be re-positioned. For longer cooking times,
readjust the position of the funnel to follow the sun's path.
It helps to put the Solar Funnel Cooker in front of a south-facing
wall or window (in the Northern Hemisphere) to reflect additional
sunlight into the funnel. A reflective wall is most important in
locations farther from the equator and in winter. In the Southern
Hemisphere, put the Solar Funnel Cooker in front of a North-facing
wall or window to reflect additional sunlight into your cooker.
V. After Cooking
Remember that the cooking vessel will be very hot: Use cooking
pads or gloves when handling! If you are heating water in a
canning jar, you may notice that the water is boiling when the
lid is first removed - it gets very hot!
Open the plastic cooking bag by removing the twist-tie.
