Default Bokasha bin

Has anybody got some advice on Bokasha composting? Just read about it but haven't heard of it. Is it to be recommended for quick compost? I don't want to spend money on some gimmick!!

Limited in size, creates liquid run-off way too acidic to expose to
plant life,needs daily tending, requires the purchase of additional
products.

I'll stick with my ancient composters, I think.

not me. i either worm compost things (inside)
or bury things outside or put them on the weed
pile if they have to dry out first before the
worms, fungi and bacteria can have at it.

very simple, very inexpensive and not too much
effort.

Thanks for the comments chaps. I think I will give it a miss then. I'll stick to old fashioned composting.
