With lockdown and most people doing more gardening and cooking, we at TNAHC thought what better item to offer for your Christmas Shopping than This Amazing Composting unit.
Revolutionise the way you think about composting. Using an organic fermentation process, the Bokashi Bin recycles all your domestic kitchen waste into valuable soil conditioner.
Dispose of all your waste in your kitchen, with no smell, no trip to the compost heap and no work to turn the heap. Dispose of all your waste – even dairy and fish – right in your kitchen, with no smell or trip to the compost heap. Revolutionise how you think about composting…
Invented in Japan, this all-food recycling system uses effective microbes or “bokashi” — a Japanese word meaning “fermented organic matter” — to decompose the matter. The fermentation process does not produce smells, so you can keep the bucket under your sink or in your home.
Freight can be arranged or collection from our centre.
How it works:
Every time you add waste to the Bokashi bucket, you sprinkle a small amount of bokashi onto the waste (the bokashi is a fine grain like mixture). Once the container is filled to capacity (about 3 to 4 weeks for the average household), you can immediately shallow bury the fermented waste in your garden, planter or outdoor compost.
Or, you can let the waste continue to ferment for two weeks in another airtight container (such as a plastic bag or bucket with lid) and then transfer the matter into your garden. The extra fermentation means the material will break down faster in the soil.
In 2 or 3 weeks, the waste you have buried will have broken down into soil (humus) and will be rich with nutrients, microbes and enzymes, all naturally produced.
As the Bokashi bin fills, you also drain off a liquid that can be used diluted as a fertilizer or undiluted in septic tank systems and plumbing drains (the microbes help to break down waste in the system). You can even just tip it down your sink to help keep your drains clean.
Dimensions: 30cm side x 30cm side x 41cm high. 20L capacity. It will fit in the cupboard under some sinks, depending on your space of course.
5L and 2L bokashi refill bags are available. You can also read more about why fermentation is better than composting under the details of the 5L refill.
For those living in apartments, you could pass the fermented waste on to a grateful community garden, friends, relatives or the apartment gardener.
