Whenever we hear reports of people having trouble using a solar cooker, we most often find that they were using normal shiny pots whose finish reflects the light away from the pot instead of absorbing it. You need to use a dark pot with a dark lid. The lid is required even when baking bread.
If you have built a box cooker, make sure that it is not too tall. It's best to make the cooker only slightly taller than the tallest pot you plan to use.
You are cooking on a sunny day, but there is a lot of haze. To judge how good of a solar cooking day you have, just look at the color of the sky. If it is blue, you have a good day. If it is white, then you will have more trouble cooking.
Your cooker is too small for the amount of food you are trying to cook. For example, there should be at least 5 cm (2 inches) of space around the pot in a box cooker.
Does my cooker get hot enough to cook?
