Bokashi bran, a biogen, is a »magic« ingredient in a fermentation process. When you add it to a bio-waste into Bokashi Organko, it starts working fast. In a short time, this magical bran triggers the fermentation process and makes a natural fertiliser, Bokashi liquid, that is a superfood your plants.
Bokashi bran is a mixture of effective microorganisms, water, sugar and wheat bran. Each of these ingredients has an important role in the entire fermentation process.
Effective microorganisms
Effective microorganisms are made up of lactic acid bacteria, yeasts, photosynthetic organisms, etc. In a perfect environment, these microorganisms thrive and multiply. In the fermentation process, there are a bunch of them and they just wait for them to be able to show some quality results.
Water
Effective microorganisms, like you and me, need water to thrive. It is important that the humidity is just right, so microbiologists estimate that it should be at least 60%.
Sugar
Sugar is, in addition to water, the most important food for microorganisms. Any simple form of carbohydrate can work – molasses, syrup, sugar, etc.
Wheat bran
And finally - wheat bran! This is the medium where effective microorganisms live. Simply said – it is a home for the bacteria that are needed in the fermentation process.
