Carrying a smelly bin out to the yard. Remembering to shovel the steamy pile or tumble the container. Calculating acid and salt. These are all things you don’t have to do with the Reencle composter. And yet, the end result is just as good, or better.
As a budding gardener, I always knew my plants would benefit from composting, and as a professional baker and home chef, I knew my food scraps could be put to good use. But I have never been keen on all the effort required.
This all changed when I overheard a friend who’s a pro chef wax poetic about their Reencle composter. His experience was a far cry from the old, cumbersome way I was familiar with. I got curious enough to try it, and it turned out to be the catalyst my veggie garden needed to go from surviving to thriving. 🍅🥬🥒
Here’s how Reencle won me over:
You can’t mess this up
I spend a ton of time in the kitchen and generate plenty of food scraps, but tending to peels and cores and pits and eggshells didn’t feel worth my while. Until a few years ago, when I moved into my first home with an actual backyard and started to envision a new way for myself.
I quickly fell in love with having plants around, and recently leveled up from hard-to-kill varieties to a vegetable garden, aka something that requires more love.
And fertilizer. I want my new baby squash and jalapeños to look plump and taste amazing! The Reencle composter is how I’m fertilizing, and I’m pumped to report I saw a huge difference in my garden when I started using it. The plants began bursting and their flavor is amazing.
This is all down to the fact that the Reencle makes actual compost—not dehydrated food scraps. Lots of popular home composters only remove the water from your kitchen discards and call it compost, but once water is reintroduced in your vegetable garden, the scraps rehydrate, which can lead to bad smells and unwanted pests. 🤢
Conversely, the Reencle munches up all my cooking scraps while I have the luxury of trusting its ReencleMicrobe™ to work its halotolerant and acidophilic (tolerant to salt and acid) magic. This is thanks to a microbe called Bacillus, which works to mix and break down food similar to how the human digestive system functions.
There’s little maintenance and big impact
The day my Reencle arrived, I thought, “what have I done?” I now have this robot in my home, one that can break 2 lbs of food waste down every 24 hours. I worried that its constant work would interfere with the peaceful atmosphere of my kitchen.
It turns out I didn’t need to worry about the noise impact at all. Unlike lots of other home composters I’ve researched, Reencle runs quietly in the background, and I often don’t even notice it’s there.
This composter is also the most energy-efficient one on the market, only requiring 60 watts. Their filters are the longest-lasting in the industry, which is both convenient and reduces waste. The soil doesn’t smell, and 90% of what’s put in can be returned back to my garden. I can’t stop geeking out over how satisfying it is for my food to come full-circle.
Reencle has encouraged me to take full advantage of my home garden and ditch the store-bought veggies. Although $499 may seem like a hefty investment, I can confidently say it has totally paid off. Reencle also offers a $35/month option with free 3-5 day shipping in the U.S. and 14-Day Risk Free Trial & 1-Year Warranty.
Reencle is part of my personal growth
Sometimes when I’m sitting in my backyard, sipping a seltzer and enjoying the lush gardens that grow around me, I think back to my old self: the one who gave up and bought fake plastic succulents I didn’t have to care for.
The motivation to give houseplants a try came from within me, but the kick to start growing what I cook, and to offer my food waste back to the soil was all Reencle. I can’t imagine another way now, and I’ll talk about it to anyone who will listen.
