In the top chamber of the Earthmaker Aerobic Composter the water, oxygen and heat help micro-organisms (fungi and bacteria) to break down the raw material. In the cooler middle and bottom chambers, macro-organisms (worms and invertebrates) work to further break down material to mulch and, finally, compost.
The Earthmaker Aerobic Composter has a 123 gallon capacity and is the first continuous cycle compost bin that can produce 10 gallons of compost every month. The fresh waste and mature compost are kept separated and has large opening for adding the organic waste at the top anytime, and removing quality compost from the bottom when needed! Gravity does all the hard work!! Independent trials have proven the Earthmaker processes kitchen and garden waste at twice the speed of traditional compost bins. The material aerates as it falls down the chambers decomposing rather than rotting, thus reducing the production of greenhouse gases. Heat draws air up through the material reducing smells, flies and greenhouse gases. Measures 47in high and 30in diameter.
