NatureMill Indoor Compost

2008_02_25 compost.jpgComposting and living in an apartment usually don't go together. If composting for your window garden or balcony full of plants is something that you have been wanting to do, NatureMill has a unit that will fit the bill....and a small kitchen.

 
 

Up to 120 pounds of food can be processed by the compost per month and a red light conveniently lights up to let you know when the compost is ready for use. Because it is kept inside, what about the smell? A carbon filter is built into the design to absorb the odors.

Buy it here for $299.

seems a little pricey for a compost bin; I would love to see a DIY solution with charcoal filter..... wknd project perhaps....

I agree with stet...$300 is a lot of money. I would pay about $150 for this. It's a nice idea and I would love to have one though.

How about worms? No stink and its a much cheaper solution.

I have thought about worms, but my husband would say "Worms inside the apartment...are you crazy?"...I will probably wait until we buy a house...I feel guilty making him look at worms when he doesn't want to...with more room it shouldn't be too bad.

We've had ours going for a week now and the smell is non-existent until you open it, and then it smells like cooking vegetables (because that's what it is). Throw in a stick of cinnamon and it smells almost good.
