I've been trying out the new Bokashi Organko 2 home composter to see if I can take my composting game to the next level.
It uses microorganisms to ferment kitchen waste, including meat & dairy, to speed up the composting process.
Some of the main benefits I found included:
zero smells; the unit is sealed
less emptying; rather than daily emptying with regular kitchen caddies, this stayed on my windowsill for 2 weeks, getting on with its job
useful by-product; the naturally occurring fermentation liquid can be diluted to use as a plant feed (200 parts water: 1 part fermentation liquid) or used to keep your drains clear and odour-free
attractive; the Bokashi Organko 2 is genuinely attractive and looks good on the kitchen windowsill
less waste - I now have a method of composting meat, dairy & cooked food, in addition to the usual kitchen scraps & vegetable peel
eco-friendly; the Bokashi Organko 2 is made in the EU from biodegradable recycled plastic
I'm really pleased with the results!
