Key benefits
Reduces landfill waste: around 40% of the average household bin is food waste. Bokashi diverts this from the landfill, where it would otherwise produce harmful methane gas.
Zero-waste kitchen: because the microbes can handle meat, fish, and dairy, you can process 100% of your kitchen scraps rather than picking through what is "safe" for a normal compost pile.
Convenience and speed: traditional composting can take 6–12 months and requires outdoor space to turn the pile. Bokashi happens in a small bin under your sink and finishes in a matter of weeks.
Saves money on fertiliser: you create two high-grade fertilisers for free, the liquid "tea" for houseplants and the fermented solids for your garden beds, replacing the need for store-bought chemicals.
Works all year round: standard compost piles often go dormant or "die" in the winter. Because Bokashi happens indoors in a controlled environment, you can keep recycling your waste through the coldest months.
How to use
Add a handful of Bokashi to kitchen waste whenever you
top it up. When you empty it outside onto compost or bury in soil, add an extra handful of Bokashi.
Fermented food waste produces nutrient dense compost. Dilute liquid runoff 1:100 with water and apply sparingly to indoor and outdoor plants.
1. Inoculation You add food scraps to an airtight bin and sprinkle them with Bokashi bran. This bran is loaded with beneficial soil-based microbes (bacteria and yeast) that immediately begin to colonise the waste.
2. Fermentation Because the bin is sealed, these microbes work anaerobically (without oxygen). They produce lactic acid, which drops the pH level. This acidity:
Eliminates smells: prevents putrefying bacteria from causing odours.
Locks in nutrients: keeps nitrogen and carbon in the waste instead of gassing them off into the atmosphere.
Pre-digests food: breaks down the cellular structure of the scraps so they are ready for the soil.
3. The bokashi tea During the process, a liquid byproduct collects at the bottom. This "bokashi tea" is a concentrated microbial tonic you can drain off and dilute to feed your plants.
Fermented with charcoal and 15 strains of microbes
Our bokashi locks in 100% of the nutrients and ferments the waste so it can transform into rich, probiotic soil in a fraction of the usual time.
So far I can feel a difference taking the revive and using the magnesium oil - one has definitely improved my digestion and magnesium definitely helps my sleep
Customer service are so helpful too..
As I can't easily or sensibly get inside my gut to check that all is well and that Microbz Man does what it says on the bottle, I'm simply trusting that it does. The only practical product improvement that I can suggest is that you replace the attached cap, which simply flops thanks to gravity and as a result can get in the way of the flow of the probiotic. A firm connection between cap base and cap lid is much preferable, as many other bottled liquid products have. Thank you.
I am on my second bottle and think it is still too early to tell if it has had an effect.
I think my digestion is better and I'm noticing when it isn't it's when I've eaten processed food or drank alcohol.
I'm happy to continue with my third bottle and will review again at the end of that
I am now on my 2nd month of taking microbz. I feel I have more energy and has helped enormously with my bowels. As somebody who has suffered with constipation for years, I am now able to open my bowels regularly and pain-free.
Has a remarkable impact after just one feed - the young calves are noticeably calmer and less vocal once they start on the cattle broth. Given they are on powdered milk, popping in the Microbz feels like adding something more natural to their feeding regime. I’ve weaned about 100 calves with it so far and won’t go back to trying to do it without.
I take this Sleep every morning before breakfast. I find it helps calm my mind and I fall to sleep faster.
I've just given a bottle to my sister in law, hopefully it will help her too.
Thank you for something natural that works.
I am on my third month of taking Hormone Health. I noticed a difference after about 3 weeks. Reduced PMS symptoms, lighter period, less bloating. I feel like my hormones are more balanced. I thought maybe it was a placebo effect at first but my menstrual cycle and mood seem so much better after taking it for just over 2 months.
Love love love . My gypsy cob has been on it 6 months now , I totally love it . Peace of mind that he’s getting all that he needs to keep his system right .
I am really loving the Microbz range for both humans and my dogs and my cat take their versions! I am feeling more energised and some how 'cleaner'. I love the range of herbs which combine to offer a powerhouse of nutrients, in addition to the soil based probiotics.
Generally all is good with Microbz Men. It is easy to take. The only downsides are:
(1) From the time I started taking it, I have more wind than previously.
(2) The attached top is a pain, as it slides around the bottle neck as I try to pour. Can you please adopt a fixed top that doesn't slide, as many other companies have done successfully.
I use human and dog microbz. Since using the dog product my dogs no longer have yeasty ears and considering one is 13, she is now in very good condition.
The human product I use and have also given to a friend to help her recover from her chemotherapy.
Having been diagnosed with Diverticular disease last year, I did some research into probiotics. Microbz was recommended to me and the Revive and Sustain 90 day reset have really made a significant difference to my symptoms. It's a small change, but I feel it is worthwhile.
Originally received as part of a “the happy place” box. I’ve tried probiotics before but after a week haven’t felt they suited me so discontinued them. I’ve got on really well with this brand, I started with the Revive and moved onto Substain after a couple of month. I’m diagnosed with diverticulitis and feel like this is definitely helping. Already have the husband taking it and have recommended to family and friends.
Milly is Uber fussy and very allergic to things. I wasn't sure if I'd get her to eat this ,but she actually likes it alot . Her skin has calmed down and itching is less ,not completely gone but hoping if I use for a bit longer it will get even better. Really love the fact it's natural
Tedward is fussy and stressy. He loves his microbz !!!! He literally licks his bowl clean with it in which is amazing as he's normally really dubious about anything in his feed. He's put more condition on and actually feels a bit stronger. He is less stressy too. We are really pleased!
Should I add Bokashi when I empty my kitchen waste?
Yes. Add Bokashi to the layers of peelings, leftovers, and food waste in your kitchen compost bucket as you go so it begins to break down. When you empty it, bury the contents in the garden around a foot deep, and sprinkle another layer of Bokashi. It will be absorbed into soil within about a month.
What is the "white fluff" on top?
White mold is a great sign! It’s actually beneficial fungi (often actinomycetes) showing that the fermentation is active. If you see black, green, or blue mold, that indicates rot, and you should bury that batch deep away from plants and start fresh.
How often should I drain the "tea"?
Every 2–3 days. If the liquid sits at the bottom for too long, it can "drown" the microbes and cause the bin to smell.
How long before I can plant in the soil?
After burying the fermented waste, wait 2 weeks before planting directly on top of it. The waste is initially very acidic (pH 4.0), and you need to give the soil time to neutralise it so it doesn't "burn" young plant roots.
