What can you crush in a waste shredder?
The food waste disposer will easily handle all the organic waste coming from your kitchen.
Simplified, you can put anything in the grinder that decomposes in nature.
With a waste disposer under the sink, you will start approaching food preparation differently. Peeling potatoes and other vegetables will become a breeze, you can peel them directly in the sink and easily flush the peelings down the waste disposer.
Examples of organic leftovers that the grinder can easily handle:
- Peels from fruit and vegetables
- Rotten fruit and vegetables (whole potatoes, carrots, ...)
- Chunks of finely processed meat (the grinder effortlessly handles tendons and joints)
- Fish scales, bones, and heads.
- Chicken bones
- Eggshells
- Košťály
- Stale bread
- Fruit pits
- Withered flowers
- Coffee grounds along with the paper filter
- Used tea bags (without a string)
- Leftovers from plates, including napkins
- Paper towels and tissues
The list of what can be ground with a kitchen waste disposer is not exhaustive. Many other scraps and leftovers can be fed into the disposer to get rid of unpleasant odors that would otherwise spread from your garbage can.
Now that you know what the shredder can handle, read what should not go into the kitchen waste disposer.
