JK 125/JK 270 has been tested and evaluated in a project comprising 466 households in small houses and blocks of flats and day nurseries. The results have proved most satisfactory as has been shown in the Report No. 4229 by the Swedish Authority for Environment Conservation.

A rotating heat compost for convenient and simple use all the year round. Enjoy seeing the conversion of your kitchen waste into nutritious compost earth. Compost earth with which you can fertilize lawns, pot plants, and flower beds.

In a JK125 / 270 it´s an easy thing to compost all your kitchen food waste including meat and fish. Not many composters can do that.
The key to success is rotation

Mixing is necessary for making a compost to work well. Both for making the fresh waste coming into contact with that already mouldered, thereby rendering the process more effective, and in order to add air, necessary for the high demand for oxygen of the process.

This is done in a very simple way because JK 125/JK 270 being constructed for easy rotation. Furthermore it is very easy to adjust the air supply to suit the quantity of waste by aid of ventilators in the side walls of the machine. Insufficient airing makes a compost smell bad.
JK 125/JK 270 heat and efficiency

Breaking down of a compost generates heat. Different microorganisms start working at different temperatures. JK 125/JK 270 is well insulated and allows the temperature to rise to as high as +75 degrees centigrade at maximum breaking down. Without insulation it may not be possible to reach such a high temperature, which in turn means that microorganisms demanding high temperatures for their activity will never start working.

Using an insulated, rotating compost you get a more even heat distribution and an active breaking down process in the entire volume. That is why composting is made rapid; approximately 6 8 weeks time. The high temperature makes JK 125/JK 270 especially suited for kitchen waste.
Two compartments, for maximum result

JK 125/JK 270 is divided into two compartments to make emptying and bringing to maturity easier. The compartment filled last is covered by a sheet while the other compartment is emptied of its completed compost.

The large container has a few vent slots (upper and lower) around the sides. The bottom of the bin consists of a plastic grid (for drainage and air flow).

We started ours with a sack of manure and then we had sawdust from a project. We have the composter under a bay tree but I read someplace where it wasn't advisable to add those leaves (toxins?) but I have now forgotten reason. I ordered the worms after setting up the bin. Since then, the population has multiplied. The worms just love the fruit we throw in there and multiply like crazy with papayas, pineapple, and apricots.

Periodically, I turn the compost using a garden fork. When adding kitchen garbage, avoid adding meats or foods with oils in the bin — as advised by the brochure we got along with the bin. We only put-in fruit and vegetable trimmings. Whenever I add kitchen stuff to the bin, I push aside some of the compost and pour it into the well, then cover it up because otherwise, flies grow and multiply. After a week or so, I turn the compost. Must turn the compost periodically. Sometimes need to sprinkle with water, can't allow it to dry. The resulting compost has a sweet clean smell after it's been digested by the worms.

It's really hard for me to turn the compost with a frozen shoulder on the mend. No, my husband won't help. I wish I had one of those rotating types instead.

Thanks!

I really like this one. It is indoors and very easy to use. It uses very little electricity and anyone can use it. You toss in your stuff and it will tell you when it is ready to be used and will let you know if you need to add anything. It has an air filter so it does not smell at all. http://www.naturemill.com/ and this link will give you free shipping. http://www.planetnatural.com/site/indoor-composter.html But I guess if you want to go with one that you have listed above I would go with the first one. But if you like the square one see if you can get one that you can put worms inside and have a worm based compost pile. http://www.composters.com/santacruz/sc_worms.html
