Troubleshooting

Timber appears wet or shows mould upon arrival.

This is a result of the wood treatment process and will disappear as the timber dries. It does not affect the operation or warranty of the composter.

Composting process is slow.

Ensure a good balance of 'greens' and 'browns', aerate regularly by turning the compost, and maintain adequate moisture levels.

Lid does not fit properly.

Ensure the composter is level, and check for any obstructions preventing the lid from closing correctly.
