Kitchen Compost Crock
Have you recently started a compost bin but find that its an annoying chore to constantly bring your kitchen scraps out to it? What good is a compost bin outside when most of the stuff that you want to put into it is in your kitchen? If you want to collect kitchen scraps for your compost bin you should really own a compost crock.
Compost crocks will blend right in on your kitchen countertop. They look more like cookie jars than a container to store your garbage in. And you’re going to want it right there in your kitchen so that it’s easy to fill. Peel a carrot or a cucumber, toss in the peels. Making coffee, toss in the grinds and even the filter too. Are you a fan of watermelon? The rinds can go right in your compost crock where they will wait until you have a free moment to dump them into your outside compost bin.
If storing stuff on your counter that you’re used to putting in the trash doesn’t sounds like a great idea to you, don’t worry. Kitchen compost crocks come with replaceable carbon filters. They fit neatly into the lid of the crock and eliminate odors. No one will ever know that it’s filled with stuff all of your kitchen waste.
Now a days there are plenty of different styles to choose from. You can even match them to the style of your kitchen. A stainless steel compost crock will look great in a modern kitchen while a ceramic crock will add to the decor of a country kitchen nicely. And if you have a large family then why not get two of them. But don’t forget to empty them. I wouldn’t go longer than a week without emptying a crock.
Cleaning a compost crock is easy too. Depending on what you put in it, there may be some liquid at the bottom of the crock. Just pour this out on your compost bin and you can even rinse it out with your garden hose. Most compost crocks are even dishwasher safe. It’s a good idea to give it a good cleaning every once in a while.
Stop throwing away those banana peels, tea bags and anything else that could be used in your compost bin to make an terrific organic fertilizer. Its almost like throwing out money. A compost crock will make saving these items more convenient and that will make composting more convenient too.
