Fill the bucket with food wasteSimply add leftovers and sprinkle EM•1® Bokashi in layers coating the food and close with the airtight lid. If you are using the bucket without a spigot, be sure to layer an inch of EM•1® Bokashi rice bran powder at the bottom of the bin before you start adding food.
Let the bucket restOnce the bucket is full, let the food waste ferment for 1 to 2 weeks. If you are using the Deluxe Bokashi bucket with the spigot, drain the nutrient-rich fluid every other day. Use this liquid fertilizer to feed your garden or houseplants. All it takes is 1 teaspoon of this liquid per 1 gallon of water!
Reap your rewards!After the food waste has fermented in the EM•1® Bokashi bucket, you can use the end product to improve the environment in several ways. Bury the waste in your garden, add it to an existing compost pile or worm bed, or feed it to livestock!
Reap your composting rewards!
Bury the waste in soilSimply add to an existing garden bed or soil that needs amending. For best results, dig a trench, add in food waste, mix in some soil, and cover with 4 to 8 inches of soil.
Feed to livestockThe pickled food waste is loaded with live beneficial microbes, vitamins, and amino acids that are excellent nutrient sources for your animals.
Feed to your wormsWorms love this stuff! The fermentation process softens the food waste, so the worms have an easier time breaking it down and it's loaded with the live bacteria worms just love to eat!
Add to your compost pileSimply dig into the compost pile and add the fermented waste. The abundant beneficial microbes in the food waste will speed along the composting as well!
"Bokashi" is Japanese for fermented organic matter and the EM•1 ® Bokashi method does just that! The EM•1®Bokashi compost system utilizes rice bran and beneficial microbes to break down materials into
a high quality soil additive. Faster, more compact and far less smelly than traditional food waste composting, EM•1® Bokashi makes going green and repairing damaged soils easier than ever. Whether you live in an apartment, condo or home – your Bokashi compost kit will give you the means for efficient food waste composting. And, because the EM•1® Bokashi system utilizes fermentation rather than decomposition to break down foods, there is no rancid smell to attract unwanted pests.
