My husband got me this composter as a gift and I love it! We run a cycle each day and I have created enough soil to plant all my seedlings for my upcoming garden. And I have a huge tub to add to my garden beds once the snow is gone.
The dry Compost materials were put in a trench in my small garden and sprayed with the foodcycler liquid, mixed in with the soil, and, a week or so later, was an indistinguishable part of the soil.

We used our food cycler for the first time today. I couldn’t believe the result. Incredible. The amount of waste that was left after the cycle finished was shocking. Just under 2 cups. Again I was speechless. Very impressed. Overall you can barely hear the unit. You wonder if it’s really doing anything. Then you open it and it’s as if someone put a few cups or potting soil in it. Are there composting elves hidden away in this thing?!
I don’t have any photos as I immediately added the compost to my plantar box. I will update with pics next cycle.
Every home should have one of these.
Added pics below. The remaining ‘compost’ is amazing. A fraction of what was put in. The bucket is relatively easy to clean. I use a toothbrush to get stuck on food off the metal plate on the side. The bucket inside looks new as the day we got it. The machine is used 3/4 times a week now. I no longer put any waste in the outside compost bin or in the city pick up bin

This was our anniversary gift to each other and we are so happy with it! It is easy to use, quiet, and turns scraps, waste, grounds and paper into great soil. We just fill it up and with the cover there is no smell in the interim waiting for the tub to be full. When it's time to run just hit the switch and it runs overnight and there's your soil.

Great recycling for food waste!

I got the Food Cycler for Christmas and have used it almost every other day. I fill it up and get a handful of product out of it to mix with soil for my garden. I am so excited for spring planting to start! It is so nice to not have food waste smelling up the garbage can and to know that I am improving my soil by recycling all of what I consider to be waste. From eggshells to coffee grounds to carrot and apple peels, it cleans up my kitchen and helps the earth!
