Peelings today, plant food tomorrow. HOTBIN’s hot composter makes it easy to transform food and garden waste into organic compost in as little as 90 days. It fits neatly into everyday life, helps keep smells contained, and rewards you with compost that supports stronger soil and better growth.

At 104°F plus HOTBIN composts much more than before…
-
Compost cooked food waste including meat, fish and any plate scrapings or left overs.
-
Temperatures at 104°F plus are high enough to compost weeds and their seeds, so they don't germinate in the finished compost.
-
At temperatures between 104-140°F there is no reason why you can’t add items like chicken bones (bury them in the top layer).
-
High temperatures and the length of time away from the animal host's gut is enough to destroy pathogens.
