Envirocycle Composter - Operation Guide
Features & Operation
• Use 12 months a year - in winter months move the Envirocycle close to your home for easy access. Do not turn the unit. Continue to add waste. Freezing breaks down fibers in organic material and will accelerate decomposition in spring.
• Easy grip indentations for effortless rotation.
• Openings allow for drainage into the base.
• Eight rollers with metal rods, placed in depressions on top of base.
• Remove right and left caps for runoff collection in the base. Remove the central cap for the option of direct drainage into the ground.
• To empty base unscrew cap and attach a garden hose or empty directly into a bucket.
To use:
• Collect any household waste in any container.
• Toss kitchen and garden waste in drum opening.
• Rotate drum.
• Smaller pieces recycle faster.
• Always maintain a 50/50 balance of green and brown material.
• As an option, add soil to activate first batch.
• Rotate drum 3 times a week to ensure perfect mix and air circulation.
• Add additional brown material or simply rotate drum should any odor be present.
• Keep material moist not wet.
• As drum becomes heavier, use a back and forth rocking motion.
• For best results, do not fill more than 3/4 full.
• Roll drum to desired spot.
• Detach door and tip for easy removal of solid fertilizer.
• For use on indoor plants, aerate fertilizer on lawn or in open container for approximately 1 - 2 days to remove excess moisture.
• As an option, leave a handful of finished fertilizer to activate next batch.
• Base collects liquid fertilizer for use on indoor and outdoor plant soil.
• Dilute with approximately 10 parts water to 1 part liquid fertilizer before use.
• A cycle for finished solid and liquid fertilizer takes between four to six weeks.
• To speed up the recycling process, simply turn the drum more often.
