Here's some other interesting info about the bokashi system.

Is fermenting better than compost?
Compost is a very good source of nutrients for your garden, but because of the composting process, much of the goodness is lost. Fermented waste, however, retains all of the energy (no heat loss) and most of the nutrients in the waste, so that all of this material is available to your plants. Also, fermented waste has the bonus of providing beneficial microbes to your garden, and this will over time produce amazing results.

Is fermenting good for the environment?
Fermenting waste is far better than composting. Greenhouse gas emissions are greatly reduced during fermentation, there are no insect or rodent problems, and the end product is extremely valuable as a soil conditioner and fertiliser. Also, the process retains all the energy (not released to the atmosphere) and all the water is retained and not evaporated.

Bokashi grains have a shelf life of approx. 6 months and should be stored in a cool, dark location and the bag kept airtight.

09/12/2006 Samantha A.		Bokashi Grains Bokashi Grains are such a great idea for the breaking down of organic waste matter like banana peels, vegetable ends, crumbs, and anything you can eat. No more stinky compost containers near your food preparation areas! As you may know, using the grains and also ridding the bin of liquids is an effective way of ensuring the waste matter does its job without the rotting odour. This is sure to imporve our waste management systems, and also our used water pipes. I live in a flat, so the best way for me to rid the liquid drained from the Bokashi Bin is to tip it down the drain. Usually the liquid is a dull yellow colour a bit like soy milk. Don't confuse the two, however, as you would get a lot more than you bargained for!! You can also get a lot of grains of Bokashi in the 3kg bag, which is more economical for the household user than the 1kg bag, less than 3 times the price. Enjoy!
