The difference between kero and premium kero is 2p/litre from Watson and Moorland according to Farmdeals.

1 litre of Exocet Cooker is about £60 delivered and treats 5000 litres , so 1.2p/litre.

I have an old Rayburn, wick burner, probably at least 50yrs old. Been using premium kero for at least the past 2 yrs and it seems to run better and does not soot up.
