Bokashi is a method that uses anaerobic fermentation to compost almost anything.
You can use the bokashi system to pre-process food waste that normally can’t go into your compost bin and worm farm so it can be used there after it is processed.
All types of food waste can be processed, including:
- meat
- seafood & fish
- cooked food waste
- cheese
- dairy
- bread
- onions
- citrus
- garlic
Since fermentation is much faster than composting, the bokashi system can produce fermented material in one week, that breaks down quickly when dug into the soil. When in the ground, the fermented material breaks down into soil in 4-6 weeks. Ideally, from start to finish, you can turn raw kitchen scraps into soil that can be used for plants in 30-45 days.
