Best Electric Kitchen Composters
Traditional composting can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 12 months. Why wait that long when an electric kitchen composter can turn your food scraps into soil in just a few hours? Technology is so amazing that we no longer have to rely on food to turn to compost through compost piles, tumblers, or worm bins.

How Does An Electric Composter Work?
An electric composter usually has the following parts components:
- Hopper – a holding area for added wastes before sent to champers below
- Motorized mixing wand – turns mixture continuously
- Heater – Accelerates the speed of the composting as well as acting like a dehydrator
- Carbon filter – absorbs odors from waste
Food waste is dropped into the machine and then moved to an internal chamber where it is heated, mixed, and aerated. The finished products are ready to use as fertilizer.
