Compost Bins Q&amp;A

Hi Niall, I have a small yard with no grass just a few plants. Would the Hotbin work for us (2 people) if we don't have grass cuttings? I was also looking at the hungry bin but liked the idea of the composting speed of the hot bin.

Hi Niall, I assume you keep adding material to the bin until it's full, what happens then? Do you wait until everything has broken down to usable compost and empty it to another container and then starting again? Thanks for your help, Adrian
