What Is Better About a Drum Composter?

Rotating the drum allows an abundance of rich oxygen to get at the aerobic, oxygen loving bacteria that need it to thrive. Mixing in a drum also allows the required amount of moisture, heat, and oxygen to get at the entire pile rather than just the portion that is being mixed.

Rotating the drum does not mean the pile is cooled down too much - you let the composter sit 2-3 days before turning, and actually the heat builds up again mere hours after the pile being rotated.

Benefits of Composting with Sun-Mar Include:

• Healthier plants, because of the improved soild structure and additional nutrients in the compost
• Reduced waste disposal costs
• FREE source of fertilizer
• Reduced water bills, because soil mixed with compost retains water better than regular soil
• Easy to use, top-of-the-line equipment

AutoFlow on the 200 and 400

The patented double drum ensures that as the drum rotates, compost moves along the main outer drum and back through the inner drum, before dropping from the output port. Whether it is the 200 or 400, the drum rotates easily on its bearings.

200: Turn the drum using its finger-friendly slots.
400: Use the geared-down shaft handle to turn the drum.

Removing Compost
When the compost drum is more than half full, unscrew and remove the output port, rotate the drum, and compost will drop into a bushel basket or other container.

To remove compost when the drum is less than half full (before it has traveled back along the inner drum), open the feed port and rotate the drum.

Filling the Composter
Just slide the feed port open, add waste, shut the port, and rotate the drum. The input height is only 29" on the 200 and 33" on the 400, so it is easy to add new material.
