Products of the fermentation process
1 - Fermentation liquid
Fermentation is a natural process of decomposition of biological waste by means of microorganisms, which does
not result in a foul smell. Waste decomposes rather than rots; therefore, it retains its vitamins and minerals. The
Bokashi bran, when added to the composter every day, will aid the decomposition of the waste, as well as any
pesticides and any other harmful substances into environmentally friendly matter.
Several utilisations
Diluted fermentation liquid:
Use it as fertiliser for house plants and garden:
- 1 : 100 (10ml of liquid per 1l of water) for watering plants once a week or less
- 1 : 200 (10ml of liquid per 2l of water) for frequent daily watering of plants (several times a week)
Undiluted fermentation liquid:
Use undiluted liquid to sanitise and remove odours from drains and septic tanks.
2 - Compost – digestate
The resulting compost is called « digestate ». The waste will not change in appearance, however it is chemically
changed.
This transformation is called methane fermentation or anaerobic digestion : which is the decomposition of
organic matter thanks to bacteria that act in the absence of air. The mixture of fermented biological waste is a
first-grade base for compost which can be used to fertilise edible plants. (Do not place the digestate directly on
plants or plant roots.)
Maintenance
Bucket
After emptying, we recommend rinsing the bucket, the lid and the release valve under running water. Do not use
any detergents as these may destroy the active microorganisms and disrupt the natural environment within the
bucket.
Release valve
Fill the empty bucket with water, turn the release valve to "OPEN" position and let the water flow through the
valve. When the water coming through the release valve is clear, close the valve by turning it to the "CLOSE"
position.
