Product Information
Full details
The Purely Home Food Waste Caddy is designed for eco-conscious home cooks who want an efficient way to manage kitchen scraps without compromising on style. Featuring a vibrant lemon print, this 2L bin serves as a compact, countertop-friendly solution for daily composting needs. While the 2L capacity is perfect for small-to-medium households, it may require more frequent emptying than larger industrial-sized bins for those with high daily food waste volume.

FAQs
Can I put the inner bucket in the dishwasher?
No, the caddy and inner bucket should be wiped clean only to maintain the integrity of the materials.
What size bags should I use?
This unit is designed to work with 5-litre compostable bags.
Does the caddy come with filters?
The unit features a carbon filter holder; please check your packaging or product contents for initial filter inclusions.
Is the lid airtight?
No, the lid is designed with venting holes to allow for airflow, which helps break down organic matter and reduce odours.
Is the bamboo lid water-resistant?
Bamboo is a natural material and should be kept dry. Wipe away any splashes immediately to ensure longevity.
Troubleshooting
Odours are escaping from the caddy
Check if the carbon filter needs replacing or ensure the lid is seated properly on the rim.
Moisture buildup inside the inner bucket
Ensure the venting holes in the lid are not blocked and consider lining the bottom of the bag with a small piece of newspaper to absorb excess liquid.
Outer enamel surface looks dull
Polish the enamel gently with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to restore its natural sheen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the caddy is straightforward: simply place the plastic inner bucket inside the enamel base and insert your chosen compostable liner. The caddy is designed for use with standard 5-litre compostable bags.
Regarding care, the unit is strictly 'wipe clean only.' Use a damp, soft cloth to clean both the interior and exterior surfaces. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals on the enamel finish, as these can scratch or dull the decorative lemon pattern. The bamboo lid should be kept dry; if it gets wet, wipe it down immediately to prevent warping or mold growth.
