Woodchip (Bulking Agent)
Woodchip (Bulking Agent)
HOTBIN is an aerobic compost bin. It relies on the composting bacteria having access to an oxygen supply in order for them to survive and work efficiently.
The addition of wood chippings assists airflow within the unit and helps to eliminate the need for turning or rotating your waste. When added to the bin, the structure of the bulking agent's woody particles create lots of little air pockets which allows air to circulate more freely through your HOTBIN.

Does it need to be dry?
It is important that you keep your woodchip dry so please do not leave it exposed to the elements. If your wood chippings get damp, either air dry it or add an additional 1/2 handful of shredded paper during use.
How often should I add woodchip?
Every time you feed the HOTBIN to maintain the flow of oxygen around the structure of free air spaces (aeration). Mix in a couple of handfuls with every 5 litre kitchen caddy full of fresh waste that you add.
