Bokashi Bran is a great way to break down food waste in your kitchen into compost. It should be known that Bokashi Bran can be used for three other essential uses in your garden, which could be highly beneficial to your garden, such as a soil amender, a compost accelerator as well as your compost tea. These three benefits can be easily practised in your garden.

Bokashi Bran can be used as a soil amender; Bokashi Bran is stacked with microbes which, if mixed with your potting soil, will return all the microbes that are killed when the potting soil is packaged, which will produce all the rich nutrients back to the potting soil which was previously diluted when the packaging process began. Another great use of Bokashi Bran is that it can be used as a compost accelerator; this can be done by adding a handful of Bokashi Bran in the middle of your compost pile and covering it completely for 4-5 days.

Bokashi Bran® is proudly South African and locally manufactured in Gauteng. We only use the original EM® technology from EMRO, Japan.  All microbes used to manufacture our Bokashi Bran® bokashi are found in South Africa.

Lastly, Bokashi Bran can be used in your compost tea; the microbes in Bokashi Bran can be used to speed up your compost tea brew; add a teaspoon of Bokashi Bran to your compost tea, and this will reduce the mixture by four to six hours. Bokashi Bran contains microbes which assist with breaking down food waste but also bear many other benefits such as the aforementioned. Bokashi composting is amongst the best ways to inject microbes and fungi into your soil; the microbes in Bokashi composting create rich soil in your garden, and trust me, you will not be disappointed with the results.
