1. What Goes In

Take a look at our convenient checklist that showcases the foods and eco-friendly products to use in your Karfo. 

 

Pro-tip!

  • Don't worry about emptying your bucket after every cycle. Add more food or yard waste, and run another cycle until it's full.
  • Adding too much sugar can result in the contents hardening to the bottom of the Karfo, avoid adding only fruit or other high sugar foods.
  • For the best possible Karfo Earth we always recommend adding a diverse mix of items.

2. What To Avoid

Even though Karfo is exceptional at breaking down food waste, there are some foods you should avoid adding to ALL Karfo Cycles.

 

Pro-tip

  • Too wet, too sticky, too chunky? What goes in makes a big difference on the output seen from Karfo.
  • Most of these rules are intended for Karfo owners using their output as a fertilizer

3. Modes And Their Outputs

Quick Mode
  • Quick Mode is Karfo's most versatile cycle and is the best if you're looking for fast results and low energy consumption.
  • This mode can process food scraps, whether fresh or cooked, including uneaten leftovers, as well as any plant waste from your garden or lawn. 

How to use Quick Mode Karfo Earth?
  • For best results, mix Karfo Earth with soil at a ratio of 1:10. 
  • If you don't have a garden or plants to add your Karfo Earth to, that's no problem! Even adding to your green bin or garbage has a positive impact on the environment!

Standard Mode
  • Standard mode produces the highest quality Karfo Earth because it runs the longest and at a lower temperature, preserving microbial content and increasing the nutrient value of your Karfo Earth.

How to use the Standard Mode output?
  • For best results, mix Karfo Earth with soil at a ratio of 1:10. 
  • If you don't have a garden or plants to add your Karfo Earth to, that's no problem! Even adding to your green bin or garbage has a positive impact on the environment!

Self-cleaning Mode
  • When the barrel needs to be cleaned, add about a cup of clean water to start this mode. 
  • Start this mode when the machine has not used for a long time and the interior needs to be cleaned.
  • When there is water residue in the bucket and no food waste, the mode can be started without adding water to dry the bucket and the machine filter channel.
