✔ No turning or mixing

You can compost all food waste, including:

  • Fruit & vegetables

  1. 🥄 How Bokashi Works

Bokashi Bran® uses beneficial microbes to ferment food waste in an airtight environment.

Instead of rotting, your waste pickles — preserving nutrients and preventing odours.

After 10–14 days of fermentation, the contents can be:

  • Buried in soil
    • Added to a compost heap
    • Placed in a soil factory
    • Used in large planters

The result? Nutrient-rich organic matter that improves soil health.

  1. 📝 How To Use Your Obsidian Bokashi Bran® Bucket

Step 1: Collect Daily Scraps

Use the counter container to collect food waste during the day.

Step 2: Add to Bucket

Empty into your Bokashi Bran® bucket.

Step 3: Sprinkle Bokashi Bran®

Add a scoop per layer.

Step 4: Press & Seal

Press down to remove air pockets and close the lid tightly.

Step 5: Ferment

When full, leave sealed for 2 weeks out of direct sunlight.

Step 6: Drain Liquid

Drain during the 2 week fermentation stage.
Dilute 1:300 with water and use as plant feed.

 

Step 7: Return to Soil

Bury or compost to complete the cycle.
