I've been interested in learning more about using the microorganism Bokashi to aid in worm composting for some time. Of course, when you have a worm composting bin you can't feed the worms absolutely anything. Worms prefer a diet rich in fruits and veggies, and hold the onions and citrus, please. So what do you do if you produce a lot of onion, citrus, bread and dairy waste? You can use a Bokashi bucket to pre-compost these materials, and then feed them to the worms. In fact, most sites claim that you can also compost fish and meat products using Bokashi without attracting vermin. According to this article, after you add the finished Bokashi materials into your worm composting bin, the worms will steer clear of the materials for a couple of days and then come around and munch it all up. So it appears we have found a way to include some previously unwanted materials into our worm composting bins without hurting our worms. And all of this, of course, can be done during the winter months and indoors without bad smells.
One thing I have noticed is that many Bokashi start-up systems are quite pricey, though the Bokashi materials themselves are not too expensive. In addition, the use of two Bokashi bins is recommended so that the first one can ferment totally while the second one is still being filled. Cha-ching! Here are a couple of links for setting up your own homemade Bokashi bin.
Interesting stuff! I'll be setting one of these up in coming weeks, so stay tuned!
Good worming!
