Product Information
Full details
The Purely Home Compost Caddy in the Red Poppy Fields design is an ideal choice for home gardeners and eco-conscious individuals looking to manage kitchen scraps with style. It provides a convenient, odor-controlled solution for collecting organic waste right on your countertop, though its 2L capacity means it requires more frequent emptying than larger industrial-sized bins.

FAQs
Does this caddy come with a filter?
The unit includes a holder for a carbon filter; please check your packaging to see if an initial filter is included.
Can I put the caddy in the dishwasher?
No. Only the removable inner plastic bucket should be washed with soap and water. The enamel exterior and bamboo lid should be wiped clean.
What size bags fit best?
The caddy is designed to accommodate 5-litre compostable bags, which fit neatly around the inner bucket.
Is the lid airtight?
The lid is designed to sit securely, but it includes integrated venting holes for airflow to assist the decomposition process; it is not vacuum-sealed.
What is the total height of the caddy?
The total height is 22.5 cm.
Troubleshooting
Food odors escaping from the caddy
The carbon filter may be saturated. Replace the carbon filter and ensure the lid is fully closed.
Staining inside the inner bucket
Soak the plastic bucket in a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap to lift food residues.
Lid feels loose
Check that the inner bucket is correctly positioned to allow the lid to sit flush on the rubber gasket or rim.
