Inspired to start a flow through...Now I have some questions :D
Comments (12)As the worms process the material at the bottom of the bin, it will become mostly castings. When that happens, the worms will move up into the "fresher" food. If your composting chamber is deep enough (it looks like yours is) the bottom few inches in the bin will generally always be pure, or nearly pure castings that the worms are no longer eating. As for the bottom being wetter, that is true with Rubbermaid bins, but in a flowthrough bin, the bottom is exposed to the air, so it may be drier than the bedding above it. It depends on how you manage the moisture in the bin. You don't want the bottom to dry out, since dry castings become hard and difficult to harvest....See MoreMiele Induction cook top see through?
Comments (10)I have the Miele. Once you focus on cooking. Pan covering the element and if you have 3 elements covered and working the pans all the other things going on then seeing the controls and stuff underneath will get lost in the cooking....See MoreNew chest freezer in garage condensation build up all over the top why
Comments (4)Not unusual on the whole. Will happen if the temp of the exterior surface is at the dew-point per the humidity level. Many chest freezers run the condensor coils around the exterior of the cabinet which provides some heat to ward-off condensation but can't do that on the lid....See MoreSuper White - now I see what all the fuss is about
Comments (24)That's a really good point, Lisa. I actually spent a lot of time thinking about it. I can't post a picture of the kitchen I am redoing until tonight. It's in a PDF and I can't grab the image. DH will do it for me later. Your image is great. Thanks for the mock up. I think real life looks pretty different than magazine photos in general. But there are a few things that come into play for this specific look in my specific space. First, I don't expect the kitchen to remain pristine while I am busy working in it, however I do put everything away once I am done. My mother spent many years training me ;-) Second, there is a place for everything, so clean-up is a snap. The kitchen is quite large. The island that is currently there is 17 feet long. There are 23 feet of tall cupboards parallel to the island and 12 or 13 feet perpendicular to the island (not sure about the last two measurements off hand). All the windows are on the long right hand wall of the kitchen. The one element I was not willing to change in the interest of aesthetics was my oven stack- it's a very pretty oven stack (Gagg) and I really, really tried to convince myself to get under counter ovens, but that started to get difficult too- so I settled on having the stainless stack- the Gagg ovens are pretty sculptural in their own right. Oh and lastly, I gave up counter seating (along with any storage on the other side of the island.) Counter seating is not something we use much, outside of people chatting wile people are cooking - which I love -and so will put two ghost stools (even copying that) off to a corner. The kitchen table is where my children do their homework- and the first one os off to college this fall. Also I never serve meals at the island. The island is often used as a buffet. That is probably way more than you wanted to know about my future kitchen! I really do appreciate the feedback. I am amazed at how generous this community is with providing ideas and expertise to one another....See Morekayjones
