Bake bread with alcy stove and caldera cone?

I don't use a caldera cone, but any heat source and pot that you can use in your cone to boil water will allow you to steam bake provided you have your pot setup correctly for such. I steam bake muffins and cornbread very often with an alcy stove with a number of different pots. Essentially, if you can boil water you can steam bake.

Caldera Cone, 1.3L pot, lid, 1/2″ x3′ coil of aluminum (for standoff, but rocks will work).

Place dough in a ziplock and steam.

Or place dough in a MYOG aluminum tray with lid and steam.

I learned most of what I know at Trail Quest

Steam Baking is ok, Dry Baking is much better. Step one – get or make an alcohol stove that can simmer really low. Step two – keep your pot several inches above the stove. You should be able to do this with a standard CC (not a sidewinder). Put stakes through the upper vents to keep the pot elevated. Happy Baking

Jon,
Are you using a Ti or an Al pot for your dry baking?

I don't bake much with my alky stove, but when I do, it is a combination of steam and dry bake.

I do the double wall thing, but put a tablespoon or two of water in the outer container to make the baking more efficient.

It doesn't brown as well as the dry baking method, but cooks more evenly and with less fuel.

My system basically steams until the water evaporates and then dry bakes until the alky runs out.

I use a titanium pot to bake and I place my pan directly on the pot. Best regards – Jon
