Could this be set on a cast iron, wood burning stove?

That is what I have been doing for two years and have had no problems. Remember it is very small and makes just over a cup of tea. Handle will get hot so need to use glove or pot holder.

I wouldn't. I've noticed that the bottom seems to leave a black dinghy color on my countertop, so I doubt it would do well with heat. Plus, the little tag on the teapot said that it can never be placed on a heated surface. You must use an alternate teapot to heat water before pouring it into this one...which makes this teapot basically useless if you are not using it for tea ceremony or something similar.

I dont see why not. If it boils dry a lot you might loose that nice shiny inside but it probably wont hurt anything. Cast iron is hard to damage.

Yes, it can. You just have to be careful that the burners are cool. I use mine all the time on an electric stove.

No. It is cast iron. It is painted with stove blacking but it is sort of silver underneath. If you use it a lot the blacking will wear off. You can repaint it if you want it to look really black. I would mooch a bit from some one who has a wood stove.

Yes, it's cast iron. It will work just as well on a campfire as it does on your grill or in your kitchen oven. Very versatile!

The manual says not to put it directly on a burner... Then again it is cast-iron and indirect heat should be fine, the company even sells an iron stand for use with tea-lights, so I would think it depends on how hot you have the stove going

That should be ok if you put something metal or stone under it, a stove board will work. I don't think it would get hot enough to burn the wood underneath, but better to be safe than sorry.

yes it can. it is meant to be used on the stove top of a wood stove and it is magnetic so there should be no problems...

I can't see why not, it's essentially a large metal pot for burning so I suspect that any material you could set flame to would burn just fine.

I wouldn't know why not. If it can cook over an open fire a stove top would be easier.

I do not think so. It generates off heat coming from below (like sitting on a wood burning stove).

Yes, you just need to make the woodstove hot enough for what you want to cook. A hot campfire is ok, but smoke might become a problem.

Theoretically you could. I wouldnt as the cast iron is heavy and I would be concerned that the stainless burner would not be able to hold the weight with the heat. The cast iron burner is way heavier than the stainless burner. In addition Im not certain how the 2 different metals will hold up. With that, I would not. And in my 15 years, we have never mounted the cast venturi to the stainless burner. Hope this helps.

I guess you could but I would be careful if it is electric. If you fill it too high it will boil and some water can come down on the stove. With my woodstove it evaporates....it may cause problems w/an electric stove. I personally wouldn't.

Yes it can. I had this stove and the top warped. It has thinner steel on top than most. I would look at other options.

It is cast iron, so yes it would be just like a cast iron frying pan, but the burner would only cover part of it so the heat distribution might not be the best.

Absolutely! That's one of the things that make cast iron pans so wonderful. They have an even heat on top of the stove and can go right into the oven for slower cooking.
