In the meantime, add new scraps to the other side. When the first batch of compost is finished, remove it and repeat the process, letting the other side cook.

Comments about Dual-Batch Compost Tumbler:
I have tried several approaches to composting and this is THE best ever! My husband and I are avid gardeners and he is not a compost fan but did assemble for me -even glued little screens to holes from the inside before we used. My ultimate skeptic though... All the reviews were most helpful. We've had it for two months and absolutely love it! Both of us use now - placed conveniently to kitchen for all my composting treasures and to his yard for pruned snips. As a nurse, I was concerned about foul odors but have not had that problem at all. Twirled daily by us as well as our grandchildren!! GREAT

Comments about Dual-Batch Compost Tumbler:
After reading the reviews, I decided to try this composter. Assembly is definitely a two-person job. It's only been up for about a week, so it's too early to tell how fast it works. I particularly like the fact that you can have one batch cooking and start the second batch separately.

Comments about Dual-Batch Compost Tumbler:
This is NOT a quality product. I found it confusing to put together and had to take it apart several times. It is still not right. I feel I have wasted my money with this product, and because I had to modify it, I can not return it. I will not be buying this again.

Cons

Comments about Dual-Batch Compost Tumbler:
Although I haven't harvested my first batch of compost yet this appears to be just what I wanted. Be sure to read the reviews before you put it together. It will be much easier. Remember that the base must be 28" wide to accomodate the two tumbling drums. The screen applied over the holes takes a few minutes but is worth it. I am a woman in my 60s and I put it together by myself so don't think it is too big or cumbersome for one person to do.

We really wanted a closed system, and in the past have had difficulty turning our compost. This is a great solution, as it tumbles easily. I like the separation of the old from the new, and the ease of switching sides with the labels on the bins.
