BALANCE COMPOST EVERY TIME
Composting is a natural process to recycle food into fertilizer. It takes time, and a little practice! To prevent odors,
you must balance compost
every time
you add food scraps by adding sawdust pellets and baking soda. The
sawdust
pellets
are a “brown” item necessary to balance the carbon-nitrogen ratio of “green” pet waste and food waste, it helps
absorb water, eliminates odors and helps break down nitrogen rich pet waste.
Baking soda
aids in the balances food
acidity. The basic measurement that you can use is for every 2 parts pet waste you add, additional add 1 part sawdust
pellets. For example, if you add 2 cups of pet or food waste, then add 1 cup of pellets.

TRANSFER COMPOST
Transfer compost down to the tray every 1-3 weeks, when compost looks like soil. Wait until the mixing chamber is
at least half full, but before it is completely full or overloaded as it may jam. It will continue to compost in the tray.
When you push the TRANSFER button, the motor will mix the compost one last time for a few minutes. Then it will
reverse direction to open the flappers. The compost will fall down to the tray below, where it will continue to compost
until you remove it. Finally, the motor will reverse again to close the flappers. The entire process lasts about 20
minutes.
•
Try not to add waste to the mixing chamber for 12 hours before a transfer. New waste needs time to mix in.
•
A good time to transfer is after a weekend away or just before preparing a
big meal.
•
Some compost remains in the mixing chamber to “activate” the next batch.
•
Some compost may leak down to the tray before you press TRANSFER.
This is normal, and not a problem. Just leave it there.
