With activated carbon and Beneficial Active Microbes (BAM!), transform kitchen waste into Terra Preta Nova.
Bokashi BAM! is a premium Terra Preta Nova starter that transforms everyday kitchen waste into a carbon-rich, biologically active soil amendment inspired by ancient Amazonian Terra Preta soils.
Unlike ordinary Bokashi bran, this mix combines our Beneficial Active Microbes (BAM!) with premium macadamia Granular Activated Carbon (GAC). The charged biochar acts as “microbial hotels”, enabling stable anaerobic fermentation in the bucket and fast aerobic breakdown in the soil — delivering superior living soil at double the speed.
Key Advantages
- Extended Shelf Life — GAC stabilises the microbial community for longer storage
- Built-in Microbial Hotels — Activated carbon provides permanent habitat for beneficial microbes
- Full Biome Power — Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) for rapid fermentation + aerobic microbes for quick soil integration
- Completely Odour-Free — Locks in nitrogen and eliminates bad smells
- True Terra Preta Nova Effect — Builds lasting carbon infrastructure that keeps improving your soil for years
How to Use
- Sprinkle 1–2 tablespoons per layer of kitchen waste in your Bokashi bucket
- Press down firmly to remove air and seal the container
- Drain bokashi tea regularly (dilute 1:100 for plants)
- After 2–4 weeks, bury the fermented waste or feed to worms

Beyond Bokashi: Terra Preta Nova
| Standard Bokashi | Eco Bini Bokashi BAM! |
|---|---|
| Ferments kitchen waste | Ferments and biologically activates kitchen waste |
| Relies on existing soil microbes | Introduces a complete anaerobic + aerobic soil biome |
| Microbes must colonise the soil after burial | Microbes are already established on activated carbon (“Carbon Hotels”) |
| Carbon is added separately (if at all) | Includes pre-charged activated biochar/carbon |
| Slower transition to living soil | Faster transition to Terra Preta Nova |
| Temporary fermentation | Creates long-term carbon infrastructure |
