X350 Compost Extractor
FEATURES
Our Compost Extractors use an auger water jet system to efficiently dislodge beneficial microorganisms from compost. Compost is introduced into the hopper, where a variable-speed auger transports it through the machine. This adjustable mechanism allows precise control over the amount of compost entering the extraction chamber.
To prevent bridging and ensure a consistent flow of compost into the extraction chamber, the hopper features an adjustable water agitation system that breaks static friction along its edges, dislodging material and promoting smooth, uninterrupted flow.
As the compost moves through the extractor, water jets placed strategically along the auger rinse the material. A Booster Pump ensures sufficient water pressure is applied to extract microbial communities without damaging them. A cylindrical sieve encases the auger and water jet configuration, filtering microorganisms from solid material. The sieve is easily interchangeable, conveniently allowing for the use of different mesh screens to achieve various levels of filtration.
By adjusting the auger speed and sieve size, operators can fine-tune the concentration and sediment load of the extract. This level of control is crucial for maintaining the integrity and consistency of the final product.

The X350 Compost Extractor has been a game-changer for me
by J. Johnson -
The X350 Compost Extractor has been a game-changer for me. It's easy to use and reduces manual work. The machine's design ensures a steady flow of compost, allowing me to work on other things while the extractor runs. I am also really impressed with the cleanability, especially the built-in spray hose option. I highly recommend the X350 Compost Extractor
Great machine, easy to use.

We are currently running a X350. This machine is one of a kind. We had a first gen model and upgraded to this newer model. Hiwassee has really thought of it all, easy clean out, consistent product. The customer service has been excellent. We run a 2500 acre farm in the Pacific Northwest. Currently we have approximately 70,000 gallons over the last two years. This machine has been flawless. I highly recommend. One of my favorite features is you can shut off this machine mid batch to go deal with any problems that might arise on the farm and come back and start it back up and you know your extract batch is ok. Hats off to these guy's and how well they built the machine.
