Bokashi Indoor Composting: How It Works This indoor setup uses airtight bins and bran containing beneficial microbes to process food waste through ferment... moreation. There’s no turning involved and no strong smells. Scraps are layered with bran and pressed down with the inner lid to remove air, making the system ideal for homes, flats and community spaces. What’s Included in the Bokashi Kit? The kit comes with two 20 litre bins with locking lids, two drain trays, and two inner lids, two taps and a full instruction leaflet. With a pair of bins, one can ferment while the other is being used, keeping the routine continuous. Additional bokashi bran can also be purchased seperatly.

Bokashi Benefits for Food Waste Recycling You can process almost all kitchen waste, including cooked leftovers, dairy and meat. It’s clean, convenient and suitable year round. As well as producing pre compost, the process creates a liquid by product that can be diluted for plants or used undiluted to refresh drains. How to Use the Bokashi Composting Kit 1. Assemble the BinFit the tap into the hole with the washer and nut. Slide the drainage tray inside, place the inner lid on top, and secure the main lid so it closes firmly. 2. Add Waste and BranAdd a layer of food scraps, sprinkle one to two tablespoons of the bran, press down to remove air and close the lid after each use. 3. Drain the LiquidAfter two to three days, drain any liquid using the tap (once established). Dilute two teaspoons per litre of water for feeding plants, use within 24 hours, or pour undiluted down drains. 4. Ferment the Full BinOnce full, seal the bin and leave it for two weeks to ferment. Use the second bin while the first completes its cycle. 5. Use the Pre CompostTo bury it, dig a hole 20–25 cm deep, mix the fermented waste with soil and cover. Wait around ten days before planting. It can also be added to a compost heap and mixed with other materials. What is EM? Effective Microorganisms (EM) are a blend of naturally occurring bacteria and yeasts used to support healthy fermentation. They were developed by Dr. Higa to reduce reliance on chemicals and restore natural balance in soil and waste systems. Bokashi vs Traditional Composting Traditional composting relies on oxygen, heat and turning. This method uses fermentation in an airtight container with microbes, so there’s no turning, smell, and it accepts foods like meat, dairy and cooked leftovers that aren’t suitable for a classic heap.
