Vitamix ECO 5! The most environmentally friendly way to get one of these is directly from the manufacturer bit.ly/VitamixECO5 hugs!
There is a seious argument to be made that this product is less environmentally friendly than transporting your compost to a composting facility via truck. I'd like to see more analysis done about this, but the idea of having to heat up the compost is very likely doing a lot of environmental harm. There is active research about adding microbes to regular trash landfills to break down food waste faster.
Composting outside in a backyard seems like a great option. I've composted outside in a cold compost bin before, and it was a lot of fun. It's possible to compost during the winter too even, in snow weather. czcams.com/video/HqKqycD8LX8/video.html
This EPA web page seems like a good resource about composting: www.epa.gov/recycle/composting-home Interestingly they don't mention these indoor composter machines.
I'd like to learn more about this and do more research. I defiantly haven't explored this topic in detail.
i use the compost mixed with Catalyst Kitty litter..... we're a tiny home rescue and have a total of 6 full timers and it helps LOTS to reduce costs plus it's flushable❤
I don't know why all these FC-50 owners are complaining about the carbon filters. Have they been paying Vitamix all this time for new ones? Do they not realize that the plastic housing can be opened and easily refilled with whatever cheap activated carbon you can get in bulk elsewhere?
Looks awesome, but $800USD, gonna have to wait for the economies of scale to kick in
I don’t think the bucket is dishwasher safe on the Eco-5. I just got mine yesterday and it doesn’t say anywhere in the manual that it is dishwasher safe. The instructions say this: “Wipe off the outside of the bucket. The interior of the bucket self-cleans; some residue is normal.”
Question. If you have an FC-50 is Vitamix going to be offering any discounts, incentives or offers to recycle (?) the old unit if you purchase a new one? Just a thought. 💭🤔

Just use a blender to slurry your kitchen scraps.
Skip this whole over priced gadget and its carbon filter subscription. 🤑
These "Food cyclers" are basically just dehydrators/ ovens for waste. No they are not more environmentally friendly to the environment, but just a waste of energy. You have to mix them into soil because they have to rehydrate to be eaten by worms making the whole dehydration step a total waste of time and energy. You would be much better off chopping the waste up into bits or a slurry and dumping it on compost. It also doesn't release less methane than any organic landfill or compost would.
If everyone used one of these it would take more energy than the garbage trucks do. It is just a pure product of greenwashing and everyone would be better of investing in compost bins and maybe some worms for a few bucks especially if you have some garden space.
What about the weight of garbage? I am struggling to lift my garbage bags, so this could make them lighter.
@rickzane6433 If you want lighter garbage, put it into multiple bins/ bags. To do this to reduce the weight of your trash is a huge waste of energy
Not everyone has space for an outdoor company bin and I tried vermicomposting, but the blazing Central California Valley dried out my worm bins too quickly and it was a hassle to keep them moistened. My FoodCycler decimates my food scrap volume while eliminating odors and pests. I then take those processed scraps and feed it to my Reencle aerobic digester which rapidly transforms the dehydrated scraps into fluffy, rich compost within 24 hours. None of this waiting months on end. Instead, I harness the power of thermophilic bacteria and constant aeration to accelerate the composting process and no methane generation at all. All for a minuscule amount of electricity.
I agree, this this is *Definitely Not* eco friendly.
We got one as our town is running a program attempting to get more people to compost.
However it seems like a leap in reverse to what we are already doing in my household. Using an old blender from Value Village ($3) to do what you mentioned, turn the kitchen scraps into a slurry. That is then immediately dumped into the spil of the garden in one area, stirred & is gone qlmoat within hours. Seemingly immediately if watered in.
Better off this way, as the amount of power used to use a blender for 15 seconds is much less than the cycles of this thing, not to mention the purchase price and long term costs of carbon filters etc.
On top of all that, most people already have a blender 😅
