Hello alli trust you are well. So I set my HotBin up on 20th feb. Temp wise it is between 40 and 50 degrees centigrade lots of lovely steam. I am however worried about a couple of points the first is the vent is leaking a lot of leachate even though I have been regularly draining the tap and I have made sure the surface is level but liquid is leaking out and draining under the hot bin which can’t be good.This is attracting flies. The second is the door seems to be bulging out. I ordered extra straps as I do not think one is enough for the mini.
Any advice on how snug the compost door should be is appreciated as well as suggestion for the leaking air vent. What is the capacity for the drain pipe? Should I try and incorporate more paper and cardboard into the compost now? Take care and thanks in advance.
