The HOTBIN 100 Mini (26gal.) is a compact, slimline hot composter designed for smaller households, patios, and gardens that generate a modest amount of kitchen and garden waste. Perfect for gardeners with limited space, the HOTBIN Mini delivers the same fast, clean, and odor-controlled composting performance as our larger models in a footprint that's ideal for everyday use.
To maintain optimal composting temperatures, simply add a balanced mix of kitchen and garden waste two or three times per week (approximately one gallon or more per addition). The HOTBIN's highly insulated design captures and retains the heat naturally generated by composting microbes, helping you produce nutrient-rich compost in as little as 30–90 days under optimal conditions—with minimal turning, less maintenance, and year-round performance.

Key Feature: Leachate Collection System
The 26 and 52 gallon HOTBIN models include a built-in liquid fertilizer collection system that captures the nutrient-rich liquid produced during composting (often referred to as "compost tea."). An internal reservoir stores the liquid so it can be easily collected via the blue drainage cap.
Once collected it should be watered down with 10 parts water and used around the bases of your plants.
