Features
SAGE FOODCYCLER
Your Sage Food Cycler transforms your household food waste into nutrient rich
Eco Chips™, using an intuitive three stage cycle. The Food Cycler pulverizes
and dehydrates nearly all types of food waste. Agitators turn inside the
grinding bucket, reducing food waste to small particles, while simultaneously
the Food Cycler aerates and heats the bucket content, decomposing and
sterilising the food waste.
Stage 1 – Drying
Dehydrates household food waste
Stage 2 – Grinding
Grinds food waste down by over 80% of the original volume
Stage 3 – Cooling**
Cools down the remaining Eco Chips™ for safe disposal
The volume of the bucket contents may be reduced by over 80% depending on the
amount and moisture content of the food scraps being processed.
The Food Cycler comes equipped with the following items:
Removable, porcelain-coated aluminum bucket
The grinding bucket is designed to fully grind and process food waste, with
perfectly calibrated resistance and strength testing.
Carbon Filter Bucket Lid
Complete with an activated carbon foam lid liner to capture odours, the
versatile carbon filter bucket lid allows for accumulating food waste outside
of the FoodCycler until ready to start your next cycle. Keep the bucket on its
own on your benchtop using the carbon filtered lid while you accumulate your
daily food waste, then when full, place the bucket in the Food Cycler to
process (remove bucket lid before placing into Food Cycler).
A set of 2 activated carbon Eco Filters
(SWR050BLK)
Activated carbon filters are designed to reduce odours during cycling.
Filter Air Guides
Two small air guide covers sit on top of the carbon filters, ensuring that the
air and water vapour is properly directed toward the Food Cycler vents.
Locking Lid
Seamless design, slides and locks smoothly into place prior to every cycle to
help insulate sound, reduce odours, and ensuring a safe, reliable cycle.
Removing the lid will pause operation.
Each one of these parts forms the complete Food Cycler system.
Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
IMPORTANT
Ensure all packaging is removed from the Food Cycler, Eco Filters and filter air guides before using.
- Remove and safely discard any packaging material or promotional labels attached to your Food Cycler.
- Remove the stickers located on the top of the two activated carbon Eco Filters that come fitted in the Food Cycler and ensure that the filters and filter air guides are in place before first use.
- Follow the direction found in Replacing the Filters on page 17.
IMPORTANT
Failure to remove the stickers located at the top of each of the filters
before first use may impede air flow and cause the Food Cycler to fail to
operate properly.
- Select a flat, level and dry location for the Food Cycler.
- For proper air flow, locate the Food Cycler at least 20cm from any wall or furniture.
- Ensure the air inlet and outlets are not locked before use.
NOTE
When moving the Food Cycler, always lift using two hands under the base and
set down gently on a flat, level and dry surface.
Functions
OPERATING YOUR FOODCYCLER
-
Open the lid by turning counter-clockwise until the arrow on the bucket lid is facing the unlock symbol pictured on the top part of the Food Cycler. Lift to remove.
-
Lift to remove. Lift the bucket up straight and away from the Food Cycler using the folding metal handle.
-
Add your food waste into the bucket.
Do not load the bucket beyond the marked fill line.
IMPORTANT
Before starting to operate the Food Cycler each time, clean any dirt or food
residue on the external surface of the bucket and the surface of the heating
plate.
WHAT CAN THE FOODCYCLER PROCESS
- Meat fish and poultry scraps (no bones)
- Most fruit and vegetable scraps, including peels
- Cereals and grains
- Cheese
- Beans, seeds and legumes
- Coffee grounds and paper tea bags
- Eggs and eggshells
- Pet food (no bones)
WHAT CAN’T THE FOODCYCLER PROCESS
- Hard bones such as beef, lamb and pig bones.
- Candy or gum
- Cooking oils or greases
- Hard pits (peaches, apricots, nectarines)
- Nuts and other hard shells
- Hard fruit and vegetable leaves
(example, pineapple leaves)
IMPORTANT
The Food Cycler is designed for processing household FOOD WASTE only. Do not
add non-food waste to the Food Cycler. The Food Cycler can handle organic
materials that traditional composters can’t and performs best when fed a wide
variety of foods. To ensure optimal food waste breakdown, mix food waste
together, with heavier foods interspersed with lighter, dryer foods.
Avoid high concentrations of the following foods:
- starches (bread, cake, rice, pasta, mashed potatoes, stuffing)
- citrus fruit rinds
- condiments, dressings, sauces & soups
- nut butters
- jam, jellies, marmalades
- high sugar fruits (grapes, cherries, melon, oranges, bananas, etc.)
- meat, dairy and eggshells- sour creams, yogurts, spoiled milk.
- The dense, starchy and/or moisture-rich composition of these foods make them difficult to process in large quantities.
IMPORTANT
When processing food waste that is high in starches and sugar, sauces or
fatty food waste, be sure to mix them with other food waste. If these types of
food waste are processed without mixing, there is a chance that the end
product may become stuck to the bottom of the bucket and fail to process
entirely.
If your end product comes out less than optimal, simply add more food waste and start the cycle again. Be sure to cut up long food waste such as corn cobs, corn husks, etc. into smaller pieces as these items are highly fibrous and may cause a jam if left whole.
IMPORTANT
Always ensure that no food waste falls outside of the bucket and into the Food
Cycler. This may cause damage to the motor and other internal components. You
should remove the bucket from the Food Cycler prior to adding food waste. You
can keep the bucket on your kitchen benchtop and fill with food waste
throughout the day/week until you are ready to start a cycle by using the
carbon filtered bucket lid.
IMPORTANT
Do not overfill your bucket.
The bucket comes with a full line (approx.
2 Litres capacity) inside along the interior of the bucket. Do not add food
waste above this line. Do not pack down food waste to keep it beneath the full
line once full. Overfilling the bucket might cause the FoodCycler to jam and
not process.
-
Replace the filled bucket into the Food Cycler by sliding the bucket straight into the cavity. The arrow on the bucket rim should line up with the arrow on the interior of the Food Cycler cavity. This will engage the interlock on the Food Cycler and the bucket gears.
-
Replace the Food Cycler lid by inserting it into the top of the Food Cycler over the bucket. Turn the lid clockwise until the arrow on the lid aligns with the lock symbol picture on the top part of the Food Cycler.
NOTE
The Food Cycler will not operate without locking the lid properly in position.
-
Plug the power plug into a 220V or 240V power outlet and turn the outlet on.
-
Press the Power On/Off button once to turn the FoodCycler on to Ready mode and the fan is running in low speed.
The light will illuminate. -
Press the Power button again and the 3-stage cycling will start with a green light illuminating against each cycle.
-
The Food Cycler will transition through 3 cycles – drying, grinding and cooling – then beep once when all cycles are complete and revert to Standby mode.
All lights turn off and the Food Cycler shuts off. To turn the Food Cycler off manually, press and hold the Power On/Off button for 3 seconds. Turn off at the power outlet and unplug before opening the lid and removing the bucket.
Pause Feature
If you find that you have more waste to add to your cycle while the FoodCycler
is running, you can use your FoodCycler’s Pause feature. Pause feature should
only be performed during drying cycle, otherwise the new food scraps will not
be processed properly. Pausing the FoodCycler to add more food scraps will
impact the accuracy of the cycle time, which will extend the overall cycle
period (though the cycle will never last longer than 8 hours).
The Eco Chips may not be fully processed by the end of the cycle. In this case, you may want to run the Food Cycler a second time to completely dehydrate the bucket contents.
To Pause the Food Cycler, press the Power On/Off button once or open the lid while the unit is processing. Pressing the Power On/Off button once again after locking the lid back in place will resume processing.
IMPORTANT
If the Food Cycler is overloaded or operated continuously for too long, the
safety cut-out switch will stop the Food Cycler to prevent the motor from
overheating. If this occurs, switch the Food Cycler off, unplug from the power
outlet and allow to cool for approximately 30 minutes. Once the motor has
fully cooled, it is ready for use again. If overheating is caused by the
bucket being overfilled, remove some of the food waste and process in smaller
batches.
Control Panel Indicator Lights and Cycle Time
- The Power On/Off button (blue light) will illuminate when the FoodCycler is in Standby mode or in operating.
- The Drying cycle (green light) can last anywhere between 60-100 minutes and will automatically move to Grinding once cycle has finished.
- The Grinding cycle (green light) is the longest cycle and can last anywhere between 4-6hours. Once this cycle is complete, the Food Cycler will move automatically to Cooling.
- The Cooling cycle (green light) is the last cycle before completion. The Cooling mode lasts under 30 minutes.
- The Change Filter light (red) will illuminate when it is time to replace the filters.
NOTE
Typical processing time takes an average of 4 – 6 hours. Cycle time will vary
depending on the types of food being processed and the total moisture content.
Total maximum processing time is 8 hours. The cooling phase takes up to an
additional 30 minutes.
REPLACING THE FILTERS
Your Eco Filters should be replaced regularly or as indicated to ensure an
odourless cycle.
If the Food Cycler is used regularly, the filters will need to be changed
every 3-4 months (500 Cycle Hours).
At the end of this period, the Change Filter light will illuminate red
indicating that the filters need to be replaced.
- Remove all packaging from the Eco Filters and Filter Air Guides before first use.
Remove all packaging from replacement filters before fitting into the Food Cycler.

ECOCHIPS DISPOSAL
NOTE
The following is a guide to EcoChips disposal only.
- Country, State/Territory and individual council regulations regarding food waste disposal will vary.
- Check with your local council for more information before disposing.
There are two ways of disposing your Eco Chips:
- In the General Bin
- Refer to state/territory and individual council regulations for appropriate disposal.
- Applied in the Garden
- If applied to your garden, Eco Chips must be incorporated as part of the topsoil, not just surface applied
- The Eco Chips can be incorporated into soil around fruit or nut trees or vines at any time. Fallen produce must not be collected off the ground for 90 days after each application.
- The Eco Chips can be used in agriculture, home gardens and landscaping. If it is applied to land to grow food that comes into direct contact with the soil (such as carrots, lettuces and leafy herbs) consumers must wait 90 days before planting to minimize potential health risks.
Care, Cleaning & Storage
Keeping your Food Cycler clean will help ensure that your Food Cycler performs cleanly and efficiently. Both the exterior of the Food Cycler and the removable bucket should be cleaned regularly.
