Composting ProcessChecking the ProcessAfter 2-3 days, check your mix to see if it is getting hot. When your mix is hot, the beneficial organisms are multiplying and doing their job decomposting materials. Tumbling the composter 5-10 times every 2-3 days will mix the materials and keep the process active. Squeeze a handful of compost to ensure the materials are not drying out. If it feels like damp sponge, the water level is fine, - If it feels dry, add a little water (be careful not to add to much) and turn the composter to mix well.

Depending on the materials you added your compost should be ready after 2-8 weeks. Finished compost will contain fine and coarse material. For a fine blend, sift the compost ti use in potting mixes, Use the courser compost as a nutritious top dressing around outdoor planterings or till directly into your garden! You may also use finished compost as a starter for your next batch, or to heat up a batch that cooled to quickly.

To remove the finished compost, slide the chamber door and turn the barrel so the door is facing to you. Lock the chamber and take the compost out.

Composting Tips

3 Rules of Composting

1. Quality Materials and proper ratio of greens (Nitrogen to browns (Carbon) - approximately, 2 parts green to 1 part browns

2. Consistent moisture - mix should fell like a damp sponge.

3. Good Air circulation - turn the composter every few day after the batch heats up to help aerate mix and encourage faster decomposting

Add New materialto Chamber No. 1.

Fully Rotating 5-10Xs after each deposit, or every 2-3 days.

Trouble shooting1. Compost mix does not heat up:

• Mix is too wet - add dry brown• Mix is to dry - add water• Mix ratio is off - check green/brown ratio

and add accordingly2. Odor

• Ammonia smell means too much nitrogen (Green) - add dry brown.

• Putrid smell (Like rotten eggs) means mix is too wet andqor not enough oxygen - add dry browns to absorb excessive moisture and turn composter - open air vent.

3. Problems with pets/Insects

• Rodents are attracted to meat and fatty foods - remove them

• Flies/Insects are attracted to uncovered wastes, esprcialy kitchen scarps - mix or cover with brown materials or finished compost.

Grasscycling: Leave grass clippings on your lawn or use them as much. This is an excellent source of nitrogen and helps absorb water

Small shredded materials decompose faster. Run your lawnmower over pine needles or leaves and cut up kitchen scarps to speed the composting process.

Setting-up your composter

First select a location to install your composter that is convenient to move materials to and from, usually close to garden. Choose a flat surface with enough room to be able to rotate the composter and if able, be sure to select a location in direct sunlight, to help cook your compost.

To assemble, you will need onle Philips screw driver. Complete assembly instructions are included on inserted sheets.

What to put in your composter

The composting process works best by mixing moist greens (nitrogen rich) with dry browns, (carbon rich) in a ratio of approximately 2 parts green to 1 parts browns.

Greens are: Garden and house planters, Kitchen scraps, Grass clippings

Browns are: Twigs, Saw dust, Leaves, Straw/hay

Do not Compost: Meats/fats/bones, dairy products, Trush/Plastic, wood ashes, Invasive plant/weedts
