Thrilled with this composter.

If food waste were a country, it would be the 3rd largest emitter of greenhouse gas after China and the U.S. I stressed every time I threw food into the trash, and committed to indoor composting in my apartment. I haven't got to the part where I bury my compost in my sister's yard, but so far I'm THRILLED I bought this composter and have already introduced it to other folks.

No worms in my house!

I'm so happy to be able to compost more food scraps without having a worm bin. The instructions that come with the kit are straightforward, and the bin stays airtight. I only wish the spigot protruded more so that I could get a bowl underneath more easily.

Part of a sustainable life style

Perfect size for apartment dwellers. Used to freeze food scraps to take to local organic store to compost. Now she can do it herself and use the water and compost for her plants inside and on her balcony.

NO Smell in-home composter

The lid is super tight, which is challenging but essential; if you stick your face next to it, the Bokashi smells mildly sour like acv but no icky smells

Bought 2 - Would definitely buy more

Wonderful item. Team bought one for our boss on National Boss' Day. Then personally bought another for my man. Both our boss and my man love this item. They were so happy to receive a completely practical and useful gift. Both are into Earth conservation, going Green, and recycling, so this was an excellent interactive gift. Both were a little bummed about having to layer the compost, but admitted they may not have known it was different than outdoors composting. Once each of them fully read the instructions, they understood and have been using it non-stop ever since.

Great product!

I have used an outdoor composter for many years, but this indoor composter is so easy and convenient to use that I'd recommend it to apartment dwellers or anyone for whom outdoor composting would be impractical.

Easy to use

I want to plant an English flower garden in my backyard and would like to try nature's way first. I've tried composting outside but was never successful. I'm following the instructions to the letter and am hoping that it turns out as it should. The vegetables I am composting have not been in long enough to use, but I believe that it will be perfect when the time comes.

Composting

We use the product to reduce our food waste to the trash. We like that it is small enough to fit under the sink and it is very easy to use.

A Model for In-House Composting

With the probiotic mix, kitchen food scraps are easy to place in the bin and there is no offensive odor from the decomposition process.

  • NY

Can you add worms to this compost bin?

Verified reply from Allison

The Japanese method of Bokashi is very specific. Adding worms is not recommended.

  • Milwaukee, WI

I'm new to this method of composting. Do you add food waste over a period of time and when it is full put the mix on top?

Verified reply from Alice

To begin, you lay down an initial layer of Bokashi. Place fresh food scraps in the Composter and thoroughly coat every layer with Bokashi. Once the container is filled to capacity, you bury the compost directly in the soil (you can also let it continue to ferment but you have to drain the liquid.) For more information check out the maker's site: http://www.kitchencomposter.com/

Is the completed environmentally safe ?

Verified reply from Valerie

Your compost will be as safe as you make it - do not add chemicals, pet litter, etc. but do use meat, bones, dairy, paper, and food scraps. Up to two-thirds of most household trash can be composted.

  • Ennis, TX

  • CORAL GABLES, FL

I have dogs that play in my yard, and I worry about the compost on the ground when used as a fertilizer. My question is if the dogs will smell and dig the soil? Thank you in advance for your answer.

Verified reply from Kim S

In order to hide the smell from the dogs you will need to bury the compost in a hole 12 inches or more deep.

How much of the bokashi is needed for each use?

Verified reply from Peter

You should use enough bokashi to cover all of the compostable material in the bin.
