V. Managing the microorganism and by-product
1. Managing the microorganism(food cleaner)
2. What is a by-product?
3. Using by-product as compost
Microorganism looks like sawdust at initial stage. If normally cultured for 4 weeks, they turn
brownish and look like soil with a soft texture.
5% of food waste consists of non-biodegradable materials. Since these minerals are decomposed
slowly, the amount of microorganism increases in volume over time, which is called byproduct.
The byproduct can be used as eco-friendly compost for crops or discharged as general garbage.
(noti󽘀cation of the Ministry of Environment)
1) By-product taken from the product can be discarded in a general garbage bag or utilized
as compost.
2) Mix by product with soil for crops
- Mix at the ratio of 4 (soil) to 1 (byproduct) to be aged for three to 󽘀ve days before use.
- Do not use mixed byproduct indoors to avoid insects, use them for an outdoor vegetable gardens.

Q. There is condensation on the inner surface of the cover and on the inner sides
of the product.
Q. Mold has grown on the inner walls and over microorganism.
Q. Microbes have accumulated and set on the corners and walls of the tank.
Q. If I am away from home for days, do I need to take any special measures?
VI. Frequently Asked Questions
A.
A.
A.
A.
The internal temperature of the product is set to be maintained at 50 to 60 degrees Celsius,
which is suitable for culturing microorganism. When 1.5L(50oz) of water is initially added or
in the course of general food decomposition, condensation may occur on the cover and the
inner walls due to the di󽗿erence between the internal and external temperature.
Condensation is a natural phenomenon and cannot be considered as a problem.
Mold is often found over microorganism, inner sidewalls, and the stirring rods, but has
nothing to do with microorganism. Use the shovel provided with the product to scoop it to
mix with the mixture inside and the mold will disappear after a few hours, as they are
decomposed with the mixture. Keeping the interior walls clean will help prevent mold.
The stirring rod rotates near the center of the product. Although it mixes most
microorganism, by-product may collect in the corners, so the microorganism accumulates
and set on the corners and walls. Use a shovel to scrape these microbes and mix them with
the mixture before adding food.
If you are away from home for more than 7 days, please refrain from putting food in from
2days before departure and completely decompose the remaining decomposition products
before leaving. On the day of departure, turn o󽗿 the product and unplug the power cord.
If you are away from home for less than 7 days, use Reencle as you normally would.
On the day of departure, make sure that the microorganism is not dry.
When activating the microorganism(food cleaner), pour the powder into the tank, add
500ml(16.9 oz) of water and leave it for 4-6 hours before starting use.

18 Reencle MANUAL
Q. Microorganism agglomerates.
Q. Microorganism has a foul odor.
Q. The microorganism looks greasy.
A.
A.
A.
The aggregation of microorganism found inside of the product indicates the insu󽘂cient
decomposition of microorganism. Give them more time for decomposition. After the
microorganism returns to their original form which may look like soil, it indicates that they are
ready again to decompose the food.
The smell of microorganism depends on the type of food you put in.
In case of odor like fermented soybeans, adding citrus fruits (e.g., grapefruit, orange, lemon,
etc.) help neutralize the odor. In case of a sour odor, please refrain from adding acidic foods
(e.g., vegetables, fruit peel, fruit pulp, etc.).
If the microbes smell foul odor, Please refrain from adding acidic foods. Using the dry mode
for one day helps to dry the microorganisms. With the microorganism further dried, add a
shovel of ground co󽗿ee waste with food waste to them.
If the microorganism is greasy or if the mixture is oily, the microorganism will not be able to
decompose normally. In this case, customers are advised to message us through Facebook
for the replacement of the microorganism(food cleaner).
Greasy microorganism may also occur when oil, butter, fat from meats and other oily/greasy
food are processed, especially when a large amount of food is processed together. This
means users should refrain from adding too much food.
VI. Frequently Asked Questions

Reencle MANUAL 19
Q. Does microorganism need to be frequently purchased/replenished?
Q. Does Reencle stop functioning when the cover is opened?
Q. Does microorganism die if there is no food put in?
Q. Can I put in solid or frozen foods?
A.
A.
A.
A.
No, the microorganism goes through autosynthesis over time and there is no need to make
additional purchases. Just make sure to leave more than minimal levels of microorganism
when scooping it out.
For safety measures, the stirring rod functions only when the covers are closed.
No, Reencle’s microorganism is patented microorganism that temporarily converts into spore
state (sleep state) in case food input ceases and does not die easily. However, the state of the
microorganism may deteriorate, and in such cases, please contact the customer service center
with a video attached in order to receive help on restoring the microorganism.
Frozen foods may cause the microorganism to enter spore state (sleep state) and may cause
deterioration to state of the microorganism as they lower the temperature inside Reencle.
Moreover, the sti󽗿ness of frozen foods makes them hard to be decomposed and may also
cause damage to the stirring rod inside of the Reencle. Please make sure to thaw frozen foods
before putting them inside of the Reencle.
Please refrain from putting in solid foods, and thaw frozen foods before putting them in.
VI. Frequently Asked Questions

20 Reencle MANUAL
Q. What should I do when the microorganism is dry?
Q. How do I clean the Reencle?
Q. What are the black fragments in the microorganism?
A.
A.
A.
The inside of Reencle is consisted of heat insulating materials, keeping the condition ideal for
the microorganism to decompose foods when in operation. Therefore, if there is little to no
foods being input, the inside of Reencle may become dry. When dry, Reencle may cause
noises. In such cases, the inner walls of the Reencle may become soiled with particles, the 󽘀lter
contaminated, and powders may be released to the air.
When dry, input additional food waste or 500~900ml(16.9 oz~30.4oz) of water in order to
prevent friction within the Reencle.
Do not clean/rinse Reencle with water. Mechanical breakdowns may occur from cleaning
Reencle with water, and expenses may occur. If the inner walls of the Reencle is soiled with
particles, wipe the walls with a wet wipe.
The black fragments are activated carbons. Do not remove them as they serve the
purpose of providing a steady supply of oxygen to the microorganisms during the initial
stages of cultivation, as well as deodorizing. Activated carbons help the baby microorganisms
adapt faster to the environment inside , but lack of activated carbons does not a󽗿ect the
decomposing capabilities.
