Kitchen Compost Kit

FREE SHIPPING - within the Continental US only.

The Kitchen Composter is one of the most effective methods of recycling kitchen organic waste. It is carried out in an air tight container using Bokashi Bran as a compost activator. Bokashi is a Japanese term meaning “Fermented Organic Matter”. It is a bran-based material that has been fermented with EM (friendly bacteria) and dried for storage. Bokashi is a pleasant smelling product which, when added to your Kitchen Compost Kit, aids the fermentation of organic matter. Bokashi Bran is to be stored in a cool, dry place. The fermentation process does not produce adverse smells so you can keep the bucket under the sink or in the home.

BENEFITS:
• No smells because friendly safe bacteria is used
• No fruit fl ies because the process does not require air
• Small & compact for the kitchen
• Cooked and uncooked food may be safely composted
• Be part of an organic solution by directing food waste away from the landfill

LIQUID FEED
The amount of colour of the liquid drained will depend on the type of foods you have put into the bucket. Fruit and vegetables tend to release more liquid than other foods. The liquid feed should be used within a day or two after draining from the bucket.
The liquid feed produced during the fermentation process is highly beneficial and can be used for the following:
Watering the garden: The liquid contains nutrients from the food organics and is alive with benefi cial microbes. For garden and house plants use a teaspoon to 5 litres of water and apply directly to the soil. For trees and shrubs use 2 teaspoons to 5 litres of water. Do not apply directly to foliage.

Around the house: Pour the concentrated liquid directly into your kitchen and bathroom drains, toilets or septic system. The EM will help to prevent algae build-up and control odours
