Load scraps and tap once.
Add fruit peels, leftovers, eggshells, coffee grounds, and other approved daily scraps without turning cleanup into a separate chore.
AS SEEN IN
From wet food scraps to dry food grounds—with less odor and less mess.
Add approved daily scraps
Fruit peels, vegetable trimmings, leftovers, coffee grounds, eggshells, and similar daily food scraps can go in. Avoid excess liquids, hard bones, and non-food items.
Tap to dry and grind
Start the cycle and let MB4 dry and grind food scraps in the background. Carbon filtration helps reduce odor while the machine runs.
Empty dry food grounds
When the cycle is done, empty the dry food grounds. Keep them contained until trash day, add them to an approved organics pickup program where available, or move them into an active composting routine if local guidance allows.
Almost anything you eat can go.

Two MB4 modes. Two output paths.
Pre-Compost Material
Mode: Composting mode with FPS.
What it means: When FPS is added and Composting mode is selected, MB4 can start a microbe-assisted pre-composting process. The output is closer to compost material than simple dried scraps, but it should still continue curing or breaking down before garden use.
How to use it: Mix it with soil or add it to an active composting routine, then allow it to cure before applying around plants.
Dry Food Grounds
Mode: Fast Dehydrate & Grind Mode.
Feature: Highly concentrated, dry granules. Reduces volume by up to 90%. An excellent "brown material" accelerator for traditional composting.
Use: Must be mixed into outdoor compost or garden soil. It is not finished compost.
The package includes：
- Moreborn Mb4 X 1
- Fliter X 1
- FPS X 1

Frequently asked questions
Is MB4 a composter?
MB4 is best understood as a countertop food recycler. It dries and grinds daily food scraps into dry food grounds, but it does not create finished compost or fertilizer.
What does MB4 produce?
MB4 produces dry food grounds that are easier to handle than wet kitchen scraps. The main value is less odor, less wet trash, and a cleaner daily kitchen routine.
Can I use MB4 output in my garden?
MB4 output should not be treated as finished compost or fertilizer. If you want to use it in a garden routine, add it to an active compost pile or soil routine so it can continue breaking down.
Who is MB4 best for?
MB4 is best for apartments, condos, small kitchens, renters, and odor-sensitive households that want an easier way to handle daily food scraps.
How is MB4 different from MB12?
MB4 focuses on odor control, wet-trash reduction, and daily kitchen relief. MB12 is larger and uses microbial fermentation with grinding for households that want a home composting path with more capacity.
