We’ve been adding<\/strong> an assortment of kitchen food waste over the last week and all seemed to be going OK until I noticed a couple of days ago that the mixture in the ‘mixing chamber’ was almost a paste. The American manufacturer mentioned that the 1st batch is often a little ‘wet’ so I decided to add another couple of handfuls of sawdust pellets. This seems to have done the trick. The NatureMill has mixed them into the soon to be compost and the mix has improved noticeably. Much dryer and "compost like".<\/font><\/p>\n

This morning I noticed the machine had a red light on the front panel indicating a ‘Jam’. I pressed the OK button hoping that it would free it’s self up but no joy. The mixing arm whirred for a while and then stopped. I assumed that it was because the mix was to stodgy but on further investigation it was jammed up with an old potato !<\/font><\/p>\n

The instructions recommend that larger items are cut down into manageable chunks to avoid such problems and suggest leaving the machine for 24hours as items often soften up allowing the machine to free it’s self. Needless to say we didn’t bother…….. <\/font><\/p>\n
