Garbage disposal

A garbage disposal for decomposing garbage using microorganisms, comprising:

• a tank for containing a medium having said microorganisms, said tank being configured to receive said garbage including organic material to form a mixture;
• stirring means for stirring contents of said tank;
• stirring control means for energizing said stirring means at predetermined intervals;
• and
• control means for controlling a water content percentage of said mixture, wherein said control means comprises detecting means for detecting said water content percentage of said mixture.
