With new collections putting the spotlight on how we dispose of food waste, more people are looking for ways of doing it themselves.
There’s composting of course, which, as keen compost heads, we strongly recommend. But we know it’s not for everyone. Which is why we think there’s room for the new kid on the block – electric kitchen composters.
How do they work?
Add all food waste (except bones), switch on, leave it to do its work.
Most models take between 4-8 hours to grind food down to a residue that can be used as a soil amendment in the garden or added to a composter.
Reencle breaks food waste down into compost using patented microorganisms.
What are the benefits of electric composters?
Odour free
Super-fast
Treat food waste immediately
Noiseless
We have been trialling various models, including Reencle and can vouch for the fact that they really are odour-free, noiseless, efficient, simple to use.
Best for:
Apartments
Suntrap kitchens where stored food waste might smell and attract flies
People who don’t have space or time to manage a garden composter
Managing food waste quickly
If you don’t want to rely on an external food waste caddy for council collection
