Vitamix FoodCycler Replacement 2-Pack Filter, eight inches, Black

These filters are added to my household composter. They keep any smell out of my house when my composter runs.

These are Vitamix replacement filters, not third party. They arrived promptly and they were easy to replace. Will be ordering again when I need them.

Genuine parts work like they’re supposed to. All is by.

Why fool around? Get the genuine article when your Food Recycler alerts to replace the pair of filters. These are genuine Vitamix filters.

Fully Compatible with Breville at far lower price

Filters are filled with standard activated charcoal pellets. Twist or pry off the top carefully to keep from spreading pellets everywhere. Replace pellets with pellets sold in bulk on Amazon or wash pellets with detergent, rinse and dry in convection oven for fifteen minutes at 200 degrees fahrenheit. Otherwise discarding the plastic filter cylinders is counterproductive to the goal of recycling food waste and protecting the environment. If you dont want to reuse the pellets, put them in your compost bin or directly in your garden.

This one I ordered as a backup as the buckets are small for my daily needs

Bought a few times from Amazon now. Out of the last 3, 2 of them only worked for between 4-5 cycles and then stayed smelling. The third worked for longer but still quite a few cycles shy of the change filter light.

Replacing the 2 filters that are part of the Food Cycler significantly reduces the odors produced by the process though getting the Replace Filter light to go off is a work in progress. There also seems to be an improvement in the amount of time needed for the process with the new filters.

Very expensive filters that do nothing. We now use our recycler outside rather than chance spending ~ $50 again.
