| /


The Compact Dual Chamber Insulated Hot Komposter- 33 gallons / 125 litersThis product is designed and tested in the cold north of Sweden, this advanced rotational tumbler is heavily insulated so that the internal temperatures can reach 160_F - promoting enhanced microbial activity for faster breakdown. Two compartments (each with their own handled access doors) allow for continuous composting Ð fill one side up and let in cook, while adding food scraps to the other side. Sturdy metal stand elevates drumÊfor more convenient loading of food scraps and emptying of finished compost. When the first chamber is fully decomposed in as little as 8 weeks, empty the mature side and repeat the process. Highly recommended by staff for the colder latitudes but will work effectively in all climate zones.Due to the rodent resistant design and the high internal temps, the manufacture recommends adding all food scraps into the unit - including meat and dairy! Capacity - 33 gallons / 125 liters.

Features & Benefits:

  • Activation of pile is accelerated by the addition of fresh manure or live compost from an active pile
  • Chamber is considered functionally full when less than 4 inches of open space remains at the top
  • Chopping up the waste before adding it to the unit will greatly reduce the decomposition time
  • Use sawdust, shredded cardboard or coir to absorb excess moisture, and structure to finish compost, and provide a carbon source to help balance out the high nitrogen food waste
