Where compost bin K-EBMS1100 performs best

The bin performs best outdoors on a soil base, where it handles mixed garden and household waste with the following routine:

• A first layer of 10-15 cm of soil goes in the bottom.
• The contents are turned over a little each time waste is added.
• Branches are cut into pieces of approx. 10 cm before they go in.
• The compost is kept open in summer; in winter it can be covered, but that is not necessary.

The finished compost is used as a soil improver for vegetable plots, kitchen gardens and flower beds, and replaces peat and mineral fertiliser.
