SD Microbes Bokashi Composting Systems

The SD Microbes Bokashi Composting System is a reusable, at-home food waste fermentation system designed to process kitchen scraps using SD Microbes Bokashi and sealed containers.

These systems are available in multiple sizes and configurations so customers can choose the option that best fits their household or operation.

What’s Included

Each Bokashi Composting System includes:

• Food-safe bucket(s)

• Gamma seal airtight lid(s)

• SD Microbes Bokashi

All components are reusable.

How Bokashi Composting Works

Bokashi composting uses an anaerobic fermentation process to stabilize food waste inside a sealed container. Food scraps are layered with Bokashi and placed in the bucket, which is then closed with an airtight lid.

After fermentation, the material can be removed from the bucket and managed according to the user’s composting or disposal preferences.

About SD Microbes Bokashi

SD Microbes Bokashi is produced using fermented grain-based materials and is intended for use in Bokashi-style composting systems.

System Options

SD Microbes Bokashi Composting Systems are offered in multiple sizes and configurations, including:

• Single-bucket systems

• Multi-bucket systems

• Kits with varying amounts of Bokashi

This allows users to choose a setup based on how much food waste they want to process at one time.

Reusable System

Buckets and lids are designed to be reused. Bokashi can be replenished as needed.

Intended Use

This product is intended for use as a household or garden composting system.

No Spigot by Design

This system does not include a spigot — and that’s intentional.

Bokashi is a fermentation process, not traditional composting. For fermentation to work properly, the material must stay as anaerobic (low-oxygen) as possible. Every time air enters the bucket, it slows fermentation and can cause odors and spoiled leachate.

Buckets with spigots are prone to leaking air through the valve, which is why they require daily draining to prevent the liquid from going bad.

By eliminating the spigot, our bucket:

• Maintains a tighter anaerobic seal

• Produces cleaner, more stable fermentation

• Eliminates daily draining and maintenance

• Reduces odor and mess

When the process is complete, any liquid can simply be poured off when you empty the bucket — cleaner, easier, and far more effective.

This is how Bokashi was originally designed to work.
