This is a VOLCAN K18 stove. A double burner kerosene stove made in Badalona (close to Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain) by Padros & Soler, Ltda. A heavy cast iron and emailled frame. With 1.5 litters fuel tank. Some variations of this stove are: VOLCAN k17: one burner, kerosene, with 1l tank VOLCAN K18: Two burners, kerosene, with 1.5l tank VOLCAN K19: Two burners, kerosene, without tank (external tank) VOLCAN J10: Two burners, gasoline, with 1.5l tank VOLCAN J11: Two burners, gasoline, without tank (external tank) How do you recognize kerosene versions vs gasoline ones: There are some little differences. 1.- Kerosene gasifiers are wider than gasoline ones. 2.- Kerosene burners have more holes than gasoline ones. 3.- Kerosene stoves have an extra priming cup. When I got it, it was in a deplorable state. Among others things, I changed the adbestos seals, and I filled a little hole in the tank with a epoxy resin drop. I know, it's a sin!!! A leak in the cap... Priming... Burning... Full load... Simmering. I've already fixed the little leak in the jet's thread. Tea test That's all folks!
Very thorough and enjoyable post @pau-i-amor on a fine stove unknown to me. I appreciate how you’ve shown how gasoline and kerosene versions differ. John
An excellent Catalonian stove! It looks like a very useful kitchen stove. Thank you for the detailed post, @pau-i-amor Cheers Tony
