Hozelock Bokashi Pure Kitchen Composter 15 Liter

The Hozelock Pure Kitchen Composter transforms all your kitchen waste into nutrient-rich fertilizer for your plants and nutrient-rich compost for your garden within a few days.

Did you know that about 50% of our household waste is of organic origin? The Hozelock Bokashi composter helps reduce household waste, thus contributing significantly to improving our environment.

This composter is suitable for breaking down all types of organic or plant-based food scraps such as cooked or baked food, meat, fish, cheese, vegetables, and fruit (peels).

The Bokashi composter is completely airtight, so you won’t be bothered by unpleasant odors or insects.

To significantly speed up this process, Bokashi bran is used. These Bokashi granules consist of a mix of beneficial bacteria, yeasts, and fungi that ensure an accelerated fermentation process, resulting in a compost liquid that can be drained and diluted with water to be used as a very nutrient-rich fertilizer for the flowers and plants in the garden.

For a continuous composting process, it is convenient to use 2 composters simultaneously, 1 composter in preparation + 1 in maturation.

Instructions for use:

1. Put the kitchen waste in the container!
2. Spread about 20 grams of Bokashi granules over each new layer of waste, this significantly speeds up the composting process.
   - 1 kg of compost activator is sufficient for 3 months.
3. Firmly press the waste in the container with the included press to remove all air from the waste.
4. After 15 days, the liquid fertilizer can be collected using the drain tap – This fertilizer liquid can be used to enrich the soil in a ratio of 1:100. (Depending on the type of waste, degree of hydration, etc., it may take longer for the fertilizer liquid to be collected).
5. If the container is full, let it ferment for 14 days without opening it.
6. In the meantime, drain the fertilizer every 3-5 days by opening the drain tap and collecting the liquid.
7. After 14 days, the contents of the container can be placed in a compost bin or buried in the ground.
