Relax... and let the Sun cook.

The solar cooker has been re-invented.

Suntaste: fantastic oven, unique case.

So easy

It's autonomous and you don't need to attend to it because it never burns the food. No fuel, no ashes, no smoke, no stirring and no scorching are all part of the appeal.

So tasty

Slow cooking, taking up to twice as long as traditional cooking methods, results in tastier, juicier and more nutritive food.

So reliable

A simple design and first-class materials from the world’s leading manufacturers all contribute for a long and trouble-free life.

All year round

Both advanced optics and effective insulation allow for cooking with negative temperatures and no need for refocus. All you need is clear sky.

Outside

The Suntaste recurs to the so called "non-imaging optics“, first used in an oven in our later model, the Sun Cook. It works as a greenhouse, capturing the sun's rays through the glass lid. In addition, solar radiation is also reflected by the external flat mirror into the cooking compartment, doubling the input of energy. The rectangular footprint reduces the need for reorientation, when compared with more squared shapes.

Inside

Inside the cooking compartment, mirrored walls act as compound-parabolic concentrators (CPC), greatly reducing the need for regular re-orientation. These concentrate all incoming solar radiation to the bottom absorbing plate, which in turn radiates heat allowing for a very homogeneous temperature to be attained. The cooking compartment's insulation and the double glass cover minimize thermal losses and may keep food warm for some hours even after sunset. Ideal for late dinners then. 

> WHAT CAN IT COOK

The Suntaste has also other less-obvious uses, besides cooking almost everything while keeping the food tasty and moist.

When outdoors, under a clear sky...

While indoors...

With no sun exposure and with the food containers wrapped in a thick fabric,  it’s also very useful for:

In both these cases lid and door should be kept closed.

> ABOUT CORK

Cork is the bark of the cork oak. It is a 100% natural plant tissue with attributes that no technology has yet managed to emulate, match or exceed (read more here). It is extracted without harming the tree nor the Environment and is fully recyclable and among its outstanding properties, the following are very suitable for our solar cookers:

•       Excellent thermal insulator (absorbs and retains heat)

•       Lightweight (50% of its volume is air)

•       Impermeable to liquids and gases

•       Elastic and compressible (it adapts to pressure and temperature, and regains its shape even after significant deformations)

•       Slow burning (it’s a fire retardant and doesn’t emit toxic gases)

•       Antistatic and anti-allergic (prevents the appearance of parasites and bacteria)

In addition, cork and its agglomerates have a very significant environmental impact:

•       Trees absorb CO2 from the atmosphere while growing their bark so our products not only avoid the emission of this gas but they result from CO2 sequestration.

•      Consumption of cork contributes to the economy of the “Montado” a unique Mediterranean bio system and one of the 35 global biodiversity sanctuaries (read more here).
