What types of food can I dispose of in soilkind?
Almost all organic foods that fall into the category of organic kitchen waste. The best quality compost can be achieved by composting large quantities of vegetables, fruits and coffee grounds.
Fruit and vegetable waste (cut into small pieces < 5cm if they have long fibers e.g. banana peels, pineapple, spring onions)
Coffee filters, coffee grounds and tea bags –
Remove the string before opening the bag
into the composter.
Soft shells (eggshells, shrimp)
Nuts
What you cannot dispose of in soilkind if you want to make real compost:
Compost is a natural source of nutrients for plants. Dispose of as little processed food as possible in soilkind, as they contain a lot of salt and fats. Too much of them can affect the quality of the compost.
Food waste that cannot be added because it can block the motors and damage the mixing system:
Fruit stones
Bone
Kitchen paper
Wood
alcohol
Oil / Fat / Cheese
Soups / sauces: Remove excess water through a sieve
You can dispose of some of this waste in soilkind, but then you will not produce real, nutrient-rich compost, you will only shred and dry your organic waste.
