The Green Cone also comes complete with kitchen caddy, accelerator powder and shaker.








What can go in?

The Green Cone is a great way of reducing your kitchen waste as it can digest all types of kitchen waste, including:

How does it work?

The Green Cone uses a double skinned cone above ground to trap the suns warmth which encourages the growth of beneficial micro-organisms to aid the aerobic digestion process. The food waste in the basket is converted into water, carbon dioxide nutrients and a small amount of residue that will only need to be removed every few years in a well operating Green Cone. The water, carbon dioxide and nutrients will then pass through the basket and into the surrounding soil

In a healthy Green Cone you will see a blue/grey fur on the food waste, this is the bacteria doing its work. While you can see the bacteria you do not need to add accelerator powder. When the level of bacteria starts to disappear, add some accelerator powder.
