Composting is a form of biological digestion that breaks down organic material and takes weeks or months, not hours or days. Be wary of any claims to the contrary. The food-recycling Mill isn’t a composting device. The Food Grounds that come out of the bin are still food, minus the water, bulk, odor, and ick. The Mill is designed to conserve all the potential in your food scraps, not break them down, so they can have a second life.
On top of that, we designed the Mill to be so much more practical and convenient than any other way of managing food scraps.
- Large capacity: add food scraps to your bin all day, every day. The bucket can collect dry, compact Food Grounds for weeks without having to be emptied.
- Automatic cycle: the bin runs at a set time every day, zero effort required.
- Carbon filter: the odor filter is packed with 4.4 lbs of activated charcoal and lasts up to 10-12 months depending on your household, scraps, and use.
- App: see what’s happening inside your bin, create a custom schedule, track energy efficiency, and get alerts when there’s something you need to pay attention to. Otherwise, your bin will do its thing.
- Impact tracking: see the amount of food scraps you’re adding and learn ways to improve your climate impact over time.
