How it works:
Deposit food waste any time, any day - up to 120 lbs (55kg) per month.
For best results, cut kitchen compost items into small pieces. Items
remain in the upper chamber under optimal composting conditions:
mixing, air flow, heat, and moisture The energy released destroys odors, pathogens, and seed germination. It
is later transferred through a trap door to the lower cure tray , where
it continues to compost while you add fresh items to the upper chamber.

No worms, bugs, or trash odors:
Natural composting cultures consume waste quickly, without odors. They
produce a mild aroma like sourdough, mushrooms, or straw. Balance the
chemistry by adding sawdust to increase "brown" content, and baking
soda to reduce acidity (both are included). A fan draws air into the
machine, providing oxygen to the composting cultures. A powerful carbon
filter removes any lingering odors. |

Use it anywhere: This compost bin fits inside any standard cabinet (special
cabinet kit sold separately). Make compost in the kitchen, a garage, or laundry
room. Use it outdoors, even in the snow, rain, or freezing
temperatures. No more big ugly compost tumblers! Keep the power supply
dry, using a weather-rated power outlet.. |

Endless supply of compost:
Empty the cure tray when the indicator light comes on - roughly every
two weeks. More than seventy percent of the initial waste disappears
into thin air -- literally -- as composting cultures convert it into
water vapor. What's left is a very concentrated compost fertilizer.
Fresh compost has a mild organic aroma, which people often describe as
damp wool, sourdough bread, or mushrooms. You can use it outdoors
immediately, or leave it in a heap until you are ready to garden. |

Good for the garden:
Kitchen compost is very high in nitrogen, which is essential for
healthy plants. Spread over the soil surface, like mulch. Nutrients
will gradually enter the soil during watering and annual tilling. Use
it on your garden, lawn, shrubs, trees, or indoor potted plants. One
batch of kitchen compost is enough for 10-40 sq ft (1-4 sq m) of a lawn
or garden, applied once or twice per year. Or use one batch per tree.
You can also infuse mature compost with water to brew "compost tea"
liquid fertilizer. |

Great for the environment:
Energy use is just 50 cents per month -less energy than a garbage truck
uses to haul away the same waste. A NatureMill compost bin recycles its
weight in waste every 7days, diverting over two tons of waste from
landfills over its life. This reduces emissions of methane, a harmful
greenhouse gas produced when organic matter decomposes in
oxygen-starved landfills. NatureMill is made from recycled and
recyclable materials. Every NatureMill compost bin meets or surpasses
the stringent California Energy Efficiency Level IV - the most
stringent energy standard in the world.
Compost bins IN-STOCK. Ships in 1-2 days.
