The Chips assist in agitating the waste in the chamber. They get replaced every 12/18 months as the rough edges get worn down. They do not get washed out of the machine as there is a mesh barrier.
If the machine is unused, the organisms will die off. The machine needs to have small continuous feeds. If and when the organisms lose strength, the machine gets topped up. The organisms are supplied in powder form and poured into the chamber out of a packet.
