Mini Beast or The Beast?
Both are wood-fired, built in stainless steel and have a built-in stone magazine. The difference is the size, and which tent they are made for.
Smart design
A hot sauna, faster
Fast heating, a large stone magazine and low radiant heat. The Beast gives you all three.
- Airflow through the stove: cold air is drawn in at the bottom, heated along the firebox and rises out at the top. The tent gets hot before the stones do.
- Built-in stone magazine: at least 20 kg of stones close to the hottest part of the stove, and more if you stack them high. Mini Beast holds 15 kg.
- Side panels in brushed steel: the shiny panels radiate less heat, so it never gets scorching for whoever sits closest.
No need to wait for the stones to heat through before the sauna warms up. They charge while you are already sitting in the heat, ready for a rich löyly.
Safety
Two-stage spark protection
A wood stove in a tent has to keep sparks away from the fabric and the nature around it.
- Spark trap: in both stoves, glowing particles are forced down into a separate spark chamber before the smoke reaches the chimney.
- Chimney cap: both stoves have a spark arrestor on top of the chimney that catches whatever is left.
In the box
Ready to fire up
The stove comes with everything you need to set it up in the tent:
- 5 chimney pipes
- Chimney cap with spark arrestor
- Carry bag with backpack straps
- Knobs for the ash tray
- Poker
Before your first sauna, burn in the stove outdoors once.
How to burn in the stove
Portable
Carry the whole sauna on your back
Both the tent and the stove have their own carry bags that you wear on your back. The tent folds into its bag, and on the stove the legs fold in and the chimney pipes pack inside. With the backpack straps you take the whole sauna to the lake, the mountains or the cabin, and have it hot wherever you want to be.

Frequently asked questions about sauna stoves
Which stove fits my sauna tent?
The 7.5 kW Mini Beast is made for smaller tents like Gnistan, for 2–5 people. The 9 kW Beast is made for larger tents like Flamman, for 4–8 people, and for you who want really high temperatures even in winter.
How hot does the sauna tent get?
With the right stove for the tent you reach normal sauna temperature of 70–90 degrees. The Beast can take the sauna above 100 degrees. Outdoor temperature, wind and how dry the wood is all play a part.
How quickly does it get hot?
Gnistan with Mini Beast is hot in about 10–15 minutes. Flamman with The Beast takes about 20–25 minutes, since there is more air to heat.
Does the stove need to be burned in?
Yes. Burn in the stove outdoors once before using it in the tent. Here's how, step by step.
Can a stainless steel stove rust?
Yes, some surface rust can appear over time from heat, moisture and water splashes. It does not affect how the stove works. Wipe the stove after use, store it dry and brush off surface rust when needed.
How do I clean the soot from the stove?
Empty the ash tray after every sauna and sweep the chimney pipes regularly. Read the guide on sweeping.
