For composting in your kitchen, we recommend having 2 of the Bokashi bins, so when one is full, leave it for 2 weeks to ferment.
This black 25L bin has a strainer and a tap for the concentrated "earth juice", which (when diluted with water) is amazing for your plants.
Each bin has a tight lid (to keep sealed at all times) and is ideal to store up to 18Kgs of Food Waste.
Note hat we recommend still having a counter bin to collect your food scraps as you make them: this ensures that the bin is not open more than once daily (as this type of composting works best without air).
This Starter-Pack includes:
2 x 25L Bokashi Bins (sealed lid, come with strainer and tap)
1 x 700g Bokashi bran
1 x Instructions on how to set it up & what is Compostable.
Refills of Bokashi Bran or Bulk Bags of Bokashi Bran available on this store.
What is Bokashi you ask?
Bokashi includes South African microbes and quality waste ingredient, such as sawdust (which would have ended up in landfills). Bokashi neutralises fermentation odours, while delivering the right carbon and nitrogen balance to assist with fermentation.
When it is added to your food waste, it activates the microbes and starts an anaerobic (without air) fermentation process - this means the rotting of the food waste is stopped (hence its use towards smells) and the result is food waste can be more easily absorbed by soil and turned into compost.
Add a small scoop of Bokashi in your compost bin with every throw-away, and the results are not just good for the earth, but good for everyone in the kitchen!
Bins and Bokashi bran made in South Africa.
