Yes, you are right in your supposition, but you do not fully understand the

inner workings of the MegaLOO. All liquid is collected through the unit and

fed off via a plastic pipe into a collection bottle set at a lower level

than the bottom filter.

 

Therefore any amount of liquid entering the system is thus taken off for

further recycling. The moisture content in the MegaLOO itself is thus

rendered correct for the composting process.

 

You do not need to empty the bottle/container every day; simply take off the

pipe connection and fit to a new container.
