FAQs

How do I use LILA?

Just add food scraps into the corresponding lid, and let LILA's Artificial Intelligence do the rest. In just 7-14 days, you will have Category A compost!

Can you tell me how many steps are involved in the composting process?

Here’s the basics! You will only need to load food scraps in, and take the compost out at the end.

  1. Open one of the two lids and load your food waste in at ANY TIME. Hard, fibrous foods that need to be crushed will go into the front lid, while softer, cooked food can be dropped into the back lid.
  2. The food waste will be pre-treated and deposited into a chamber below.
  3. LILA will collect and process your food scraps over two weeks, and turn them into compost. You can still add food scraps during this time!
  4. In two weeks, the bottom left or right LED will flash green and purple. Take out the corresponding chamber and empty the compost.
  5. After the first cycle, there will be a new batch of compost ready every week (every 7 days).
