We finally took the time to build a decent compost system! The counterweight lid is my favorite feature. It makes things so easy and hassle free. Big lid - one hand operation.
The 3 bins will allow us to rotate the compost much easier than our old system ever allowed. It's easy now. Take the fronts off, move compost pile from one bin to the next. This automatically upside-downs the contents and aerates them.
This is not a 'hot compost' system, which counts on steady internal temperature and constant rotation. (Frankly, I'm too lazy for that). This is more of a static system that allows for 2 moves of the pile until the finished compost is moved to a curing/storing container.
We love it. The soldier flies love it. The chickens love it. Win-win. :)
Other than the screws, all materials used are recycled.
