Garbage Enzyme - Part 2
Previously I blogged about our recent experiment on garbage enzyme, its process and benefits. So here's a little update on our little experiment.

After a day, we could see the gases building up inside the tightly closed bottle. Tiny bubbles were oozing to the surface. The plastic bottle was also quite hard when we tried to press it a little. And when we released the bottle cap slowly, we could hear a hissing sound. It's kinda like opening a bottle of carbonated drink. Pssssssstttttt~~~~ There's also a sourish smell from the fermentation process. It doesn't stink, but rather, the smell from the fermentation process is kinda similar to apple cider vinegar with a tinge of tangerine fragrance to it.

One is lonely, two is company, three's a crowd!

Over the weekend, we also made 2 more bottles of garbage enzyme, hehe! Leftover tangerines from CNY ma, might as well make use of them :)


The picture above shows the first bottle of garbage enzyme which we made last weekend. You could see some tangerines had sunk to the bottom of the bottle, mostly the tangerine skin. The tangerine flesh were all at the top and looking really swelled up. Both the skin and flesh were already looking rather mushy. Tiny bubbles were actually oozing to the top, but you can't really see them from the picture. The colour of the solution has also changed from a dark brown to a lighter brownish mixture.

Hubby's elder brother had been using the enzyme for a few months already, and he told hubby that ever since they mixed the enzyme with their cleaning detergent to clean their house, there are hardly any insects like ants or even lizards around. Sounds like a great repellent :D They would even pour 1 to 2 tbps of the enzyme into their bath water (they have those big water containers at home for the bath) and bathe using that water. The enzyme is said to be great for the skin, and even helps to reduce the sensitiveness.

I'll keep you guys updated on the first bottle in another week or so :D Till then!
