The Compressor is used with the RTS Kitchen Composter as a tool for draining the liquid (known as Bokashi juice) from the food scraps within the container.
The Bokashi juice can then be used as a plant food or can be poured down the drain. This is a good practice for households with septic systems, as it is believed that this may help maintain a healthy septic environment within the holding tank. Bokashi juice is acidic, however, and if being used as a plant feed, it should be diluted at a rate of 1:100 parts water.
The Compressor is a replacement item. This product is included when purchasing the RTS Kitchen Composter Kit.
