Dear Tosh

Why did you decide to go back to traditional composting please?

Hi Marian,

I found that as a family of 3, we didn't create enough food waste on a weekly basis to make this system work properly. I have now purchased a HotBin mini and am hoping that this will work out better for us. I also have a compost bin (made from pallets) for garden waste. So I'm back trying to compost aerobically!

Ah thanks.  I always thought the bokashi thing, though brilliant, seemed rather onerous, not for the absent-minded.

By the way I love your picture of the Olympic park, wasn't the planting great.

Brings back fantastic memories.

Tosh, it sounds like you made your own slatted bin - I would love to know if anyone has found a good one of these to buy? It's a set of notched strips of wood and you just layer it up to the right height. I bought one but it was very badly cut and didn't fit together, and the gaps were far too wide so the compost just fell out!
