Good loamy soil to 30/40 cm height

Cow or horses manure, several big handfuls, broken up

Kitchen wastes, a bit. To be added to the system after 10 days

Worms (100/ 200, depending on the dimension of the barrel). Better the red worm, they are more active and efficient, even if not local!

Dry leaves or straw

|Step_Content=<translate>Aeration is important as the system is aerobic, but it must also be covered from rain and have screens against insects and rodents.

Use a large drill bit (hole saw) for making large hole for the ventilation filters. Insert the ventilation filters and fit using silicon.

The number of ventilation filters depend on the dimension of the container and temperature outside.

If it is not possible to find ventilation filters:

Option b) Insect netting to cover and to protect the holes for air circulation in the wall’s bin. E.g. A mosquito net can be used instead of the ventilation filters.

Option c) Close the barrel with a large textile material (like an old T-shirt) or a mosquito net. In this case it’ll be necessary to tight the textile or net, with a string to the top of the barrel. Then use 2 sticks to keep ventilated and finally put the lid and above it, put a brick/stone, to keep the lid steady (can be a problem in the case of strong winds).

|Step_Title=<translate>Create the rock/sand layered filter</translate>
|Step_Content=<translate>The filter is made of inert material such as: rocks, pebbles, broken tiles, etc., gravel and sand.

Start to fill the container from the bottom with the material of large dimensions first, consequently adding material of smaller dimensions and finishing with sand on the top.

It’s also possible to use only lighter inert material such as expanded clay balls instead of the bricks/stones/gravels, etc., and then finish with a layer of sand. [If used expanded clay, the barrel will be lighter to move.]

The quantities of the materials for the filter it depend on the dimension of the barrel, in general:

Total thickness: 25/35 cm. 1<sup>st</sup>layer of stones/broken bricks/gravel/expanded clay balls/ = 15/20 cm; 2<sup>nd</sup>layer of sand = 10/15 cm.

It’s always recommended to place a non-woven blanket (for some fabric such as a T-shirt) between the gravel and the sand. To stop the sand from being washed away.</translate>
