2x Bokashi bins in rotation, mostly for ground coffee from the Espresso percolator and various citrus peels. Takes around 1-2 months for it to be full, then swap the bins, empty the one that’s been sitting there into a worm farm, clean it and put it back to use. I reckon the Bokashi breaks it down a bit, so the worms can process it better, together with general kitchen scraps and some browns. I’m also tinkering with adding crushed charcoal to the mix for the worms and black soldier fly larvae to inoculate it and essentially make biochar. Love mixing the vermicompost end product with different soils, create my own potting mix or use it as layer in a Hügelkultur, together with logs, branches, garden clippings (greens&browns) and cow manure.

We had two Bokashi buckets but it never worked that well for us. The buckets were smelling quite bad, maybe we made some mistake. I really like the concept, but for only having a small balcony and not much space for flowers and plants, it was not worth it.

I have two small bokashi casks and four medium-sized dual-chamber tumblers.

I’d like a vermicompost system but I worry that’s too complex for my children.
