Do I need a Compost Pail?
http://compostinstructions.com
Compost pails are useful tools for carrying kitchen scraps from the home to the compost pile, compost bin, or compost heap. There are compost pails you can buy (like the stainless steel compost pail in this video) that have activated carbon filters on them to help keep the scent away for any scraps you may have in the kitchen – although in all honesty, it’s best to take the pail to the bin every few days or so.
In this video, we address the issue of compost pails and discuss using one, buying one, or even how to apporach a DIY method.

The JK 125 and JK 270 Composters. Your own Ecological Revolution!
http://www.sunwindandrain.co.uk
JK 125/JK 270 has been tested and evaluated in a project comprising 466 households in small houses and blocks of flats and day nurseries. The results have proved most satisfactory as has been shown in the Report No. 4229 by the Swedish Authority for Environment Conservation.
A rotating heat compost for convenient and simple use all the year round. Enjoy seeing the conversion of your kitchen waste into nutritious compost earth. Compost earth with which you can fertilize lawns, pot plants, and flower beds.
In a JK125 / 270 it´s an easy thing to compost all your kitchen food waste including meat and fish. Not many composters can do that.
The key to success is rotation
Mixing is necessary for making a compost to work well. Both for making the fresh waste coming into contact with that already mouldered, thereby rendering the process more effective, and in order to add air, necessary for the high demand for oxygen of the process.
This is done in a very simple way because JK 125/JK 270 being constructed for easy rotation. Furthermore it is very easy to adjust the air supply to suit the quantity of waste by aid of ventilators in the side walls of the machine. Insufficient airing makes a compost smell bad.
JK 125/JK 270 heat and efficiency
Breaking down of a compost generates heat. Different microorganisms start working at different temperatures. JK 125/JK 270 is well insulated and allows the temperature to rise to as high as +75 degrees centigrade at maximum breaking down. Without insulation it may not be possible to reach such a high temperature, which in turn means that microorganisms demanding high temperatures for their activity will never start working.
Using an insulated, rotating compost you get a more even heat distribution and an active breaking down process in the entire volume. That is why composting is made rapid; approximately 6 8 weeks time. The high temperature makes JK 125/JK 270 especially suited for kitchen waste.
Two compartments, for maximum result
JK 125/JK 270 is divided into two compartments to make emptying and bringing to maturity easier. The compartment filled last is covered by a sheet while the other compartment is emptied of its completed compost.
