(a) Displaying a cup of compost taken from the site. (b) Placing the compostable coffee pods into the specimen containers composed of galvanized steel 0.635 cm (0.25 in.) mesh cut into 30.5 cm × 25.4 cm (12 in. × 10 in.) size encapsulation tied with a bright nylon rope, allowing material to degrade with adequate aeration (June 4, 2018). (c) Phase 2 encapsulation with nylon bags with pore size of 2 mm with a bright nylon rope tied for easy identification. Each bag was 15.24 cm × 20.32 cm (6 in. × 8 in.) (June 26, 2018).
