Learn more about why Fungal Compost is so important to life on this Earth in this great video below by Dr. David Johnson from Chico State University. BioVast Vermicompost Care instructions: BioVast Vermicompost is very much alive with worms and beneficial microorganisms. See above for complete 3rd party biology reports. Keeping your vermicompost from drying out is important to keep the biology alive. If buying larger bags 5 or 10 gallons. We recommend storing in some sort of plastic tote with holes drilled into it. This will allow the compost to breathe and the worms and biology and fungi to thrive. Checking moisture content:-Simply grab a handful and squeeze in your hand. -The vermicompost should stick together but no water should drip down your wrist. This is called field capacity. - If Vermicompost does not stick together when squeezed. Then use a spray bottle with chlorine free water to add moisture to the vermicompost. * Do NOT OVERWATER. -Overwatering your vermicompost during storage can lead to anaerobic conditions (no air). If you squeeze your compost and water drips down your wrist you are now over field capacity. If this is the case allow compost to air out until desired moisture level is reached.

BierKashi Bokashi – Fermented Compost Accelerator Free Shipping on All Bokashi Products BierKashi Bokashi is SD Microbes’ original fermented compost input, made from upcycled organic spent brewers grains and organic wheat bran. It is designed to support Bokashi-style composting and organic waste fermentation using traditional lactic acid fermentation methods. Unlike many Bokashi products, we do not use rice bran fillers. Our formula uses a blend of organic spent beer grains and organic red flake wheat bran, providing a high-volume, high-quality fermented substrate made entirely from recycled and organic materials. Each batch is produced using our in-house BrewKashi microbial culture and is fermented for three weeks before being carefully dried for shelf stability and ease of use. What is BierKashi Bokashi? BierKashi Bokashi is made from organic spent brewers grain sourced from Protector Brewing Company — San Diego’s first and only organic brewery — combined with organic red flake wheat bran. This blend is inoculated with our BrewKashi culture, which includes lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus casei) and other naturally occurring fermentation microbes. The material is then fermented under controlled conditions and dried for storage and shipping. Common Uses Food Scrap FermentationDesigned for Bokashi-style composting of kitchen scraps, including materials such as fruits, vegetables, bread, grains, and other organic waste. Odor ControlCommonly used in chicken coops, litter boxes, compost bins, food scrap buckets, and other enclosed areas where organic material is present. Composting & Soil SystemsUsed as a fermented compost input prior to soil incorporation or composting. Sustainability Commitment Upcycled IngredientsWe divert organic brewery byproducts from waste streams and repurpose them into useful compost inputs.

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. Upgrade your system with the Airscape lid here <
