If you can justify the price tag, I really can't emphasize enough how much I think you should get this. It's satisfying to see my scraps turned into soil in front of my eyes-and without harmful plastic ozone filters, smell, or worms. About a year ago, I participated in a Kickstarter for this amazing compost. I'm busy, and the Lomi allows me to break down my kitchen waste and reduce my carbon footprint with the push of a button. 631 Likes, 19 Comments - Bryan Thompson (btdoesit) on Instagram: 'Check out my new Lomi. Enter Lomi, the 499 kitchen countertop composter from Pela. Though I have plenty of kitchen gadgets and not much space to store them, this one was a necessary (and welcome) addition. This proves that if we want sustainability to be the norm, we need more powerful investors to get on board and cheaper production costs to make it accessible to the masses.Īll in all, I love that I was able to restart my home composting journey with Lomi. 3:56 How the Lomi Kickstarter went viral 5:15 What exactly Lomi is 10:17 Educating consumers about environmental products & the problems with Facebook 14:52.

Breaks down more things than most at-home compost bins and green bins.What are the benefits of the Lomi composter? So, even though I can't mix some of my compost in with my soil, it's much easier to shlep the lightweight, soil-like end product to a drop-off center than a bag of heavy, smelly food waste. When you use the Eco Express or Lomi Approved modes, you can toss the end product into a green bin, composting pile outside (if you have one), or take it to a compost drop-off center. When you use the Grow mode, the compost can be mixed with your houseplant and garden dirt to create nutrient-rich soil. I use Eco Express mode weekly, and it wraps up its cycle before I sign off work at the end of the day. Grow mode (24 hours) uses low heat and a longer duration to preserve microorganisms and create nutrient-rich compost that's suitable for yard and houseplant use. Lomi is a countertop, kitchen composter that breaks down organic waste such as food scraps into small fragments that can either be used as soil, mixed with existing compost, or tossed into your. Lomi Approved mode (5-8 hours) is able to break down food, organic waste, and bioplastics, and compostable packaging (like those smoothie straws and takeaway cutlery). Eco Express mode (3-5 hours) is meant for “easy” compost scraps like fruits, veggies, other foods, and houseplant and yard waste. The Lomi has three compost modes, each of which takes a different amount of time to break down your organic waste.
