I used the bokashi bins for a while. Super effective. I dumped the finished product into a compost bin. I ended up with a compost bin that was so full of black soldier fly larvae it seemed to develop its own consciousness. I had to move house but that thing could have been my superannuation fund.
Oh boy...
I accidentally left my bokashi bin cooking for almost an entire year and it ended up infested with flies. When I popped the lid to get rid of it I was simultaneously horrified at the infestation and fascinated by how much everything had broken down. It was basically a brown ooze, the only remaining things I could recognise were some pistachio shells
