Therefore, the stirring by the stirring blades 7 is started, and the upper and lower garbage in the storage container 1 is mixed and pulverized, and then steam is generated in earnest. Since the drying did not proceed, the drying processing time was delayed.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and can reduce the processing time when the amount of steam generated from the raw garbage is small, for example. It is possible to prevent the garbage that is formed when the agitation is carried out with a large amount of garbage and becomes garbage-like and wrapped around the lower side of the agitation blade in a state where only the surface is dried, and that the garbage is not undried. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a high-performance kitchen waste disposal machine.
