Wow, such a good video for the making own bokashi!. above all the garden you have is a heaven, I just bought a bokashi bucket with a bag of bokashi, but I can't have anything in the ground for now, and I have quite a bit potted plants. I like to grow some easy vegetables but don't know what to do once the bokashi bucket fill completely as I can't dig a hole in the ground, any advice...? should i wait until 2 weeks and can i use the organic potting soil from store-bought with a pot and using plastic liner to block the hole underneath, and cover them in the top as well, once I mix the bokashi compost into the potting soil? Also if I don't have too many plants to use the composed soil later, can I leave the soil in the pot that is been composted? By the way, how long does it takes the soil in the pot takes to become fully able to use? Thank you in Advance!!!!!!

Thank you for your kind comments, hopefully the following instructions will help. How to make Bokashi bran 5k wheat or rice bran 1 litre chlorine free water 10 ml EM1 10 ml blackstrap molasses Warm a little of the water to dissolve the molasses Add the remaining water & EM-1 and mix together Put the bran into a large mixing container and using your hands, because this helps you achieve the right moisture level, mix in 2/3rds of the liquid Squeeze a handful of bran together if it sticks together but falls apart when you prod it its ready If it does not form a ball but just crumbles its too dry slowly add some more liquid. If liquid drips out when you squeeze the ball it’s too wet and you will have to add more bran When the proper moisture level has been reached put the bran into the plastic bag. Compress the bag contents and squeeze out as much air as you can, twist the bag closed Place in an airtight container and place in a warmish dry place Leave for at least 2 weeks for the microbes to work their magic

Looks like we can use Kefir as a source of microorganisms for Bokashi. And it is super healthy and easy to self replicate by consuming Kefir and introducing fresh milk. Some citation from Wiki: " The kefir grains initiating the fermentation are initially created by auto-aggregations of Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens and Saccharomyces turicensis, where multiple biofilm producers cause the surfaces to adhere which form a three dimensional microcolony.The biofilm is a matrix of heteropolysaccharides called kefiran, which is composed of equal proportions of glucose and galactose. It resembles small cauliflower grains, with color ranging from white to creamy yellow. A complex and highly variable symbiotic community can be found in these grains, which can include acetic acid bacteria (such as A. aceti and A. rasens), yeasts (such as Candida kefyr and S. cerevisiae) and a number of Lactobacillus species, such as L. parakefiri, L. kefiranofaciens (and subsp. kefirgranum), L. kefiri, etc. While some microbes predominate, Lactobacillus species are always present.

I'm confused. I've read your recipe stating only a mere 10 ml each of Em1 and molasses. In the video, it appears that you used far more Em1 and molasses than that. Of course, I'm in the US and put the metrics into a converter which roughly converts to: 11 lbs bran 4.25 cups of water 1/3 of an ounce each of Em1 and molasses (less than tablespoon), and it sure looks as if you used far more than z tablespoon in the video. Can you please put me straight? What am I missing? Any help would be most appreciated.

I discovered, too late, that the teabags (which are Fair-Trade) actually still use plastic in the teabag, so really, nothing was happening. I stopped putting teabags in (I broke them, and tipped the used contents into a separate container) and with the second attempt, focused more on everything else; vegetative matter, bits of meat, peel, compostable tissue... everything recommended...and lo and behold, the second bin produced 450ml of 'tea' - and while it's sitting 'maturing' for 2 weeks, is STILL producing tea. I now have my third bin on the go, and am far more selective about what I add... The first bin's contents went into the Garden compost bin...

i've never had a problem with dairy product scraps, liquids are a problem so not milk but cheese scraps are fine. Too much oil will upset balance - Oil on food scraps is fine.

Thank you - the difference between milk and cheese, I ‘spose. Albeit milk creates cheese ;);). It’s good to hear, as it seems a shame not to utilise. Also I was never told to use the liquid every other day 😮. Much the better option. You are much appreciated _ even more so, as you celebrate Dolphins 😌

I don’t cook everyday. And sometimes have little kitchen scraps. Can I store the scraps in a box in the fridge and then add to the bokashi bin when I have enough kitchen scraps? But the kitchen scraps will be cold. Will it affect the fermentation?

@@no-diggarden Thanks for the tip. I use to use the system with the holes on the top but my buckets break over the years because of UV-light and are then hard to pull apart so I am trying to find a system where I only need one 7 gallon bucket and have a spacer in the button.

Rene Netter I’m not sure the diameter of your bucket, but I use a “grit guard” that is made to fit in a 3.5-5 gallon bucket. They’re usually used for catching dirt/gravel at the bottom of your wash bucket when washing your own car, and the openings are a bit large to stop small food bits from passing through, so I line the top of the guard with parchment/brown paper. :-) You can buy grit guards for around $8 on Amazon!

You are managing incredibly well. The problem with exact measurements is it depends on the age of your bran as to how much it will absorb.
