This is a quite not an easy question to answer. Given that kitchen wastes vary from one home to another, the amount of bokashi liquid produced will be different from one home to another. So, there is no exact amount of bokashi liquid produced, even if you compare between two fully loaded bokashi bin which are started at the same time.
But,the amount of bokashi liquid produced for one run will largely be dependent on types and conditions of organic materials that you compost. Materials with higher initial moist contents before you put into the composting bin such as vegetables and fruits will produced more fermentation liquid than materials that have lower or no water contents. Green materials tend to produce more liquid than dry materials because of their higher original water contents. Also, remember that different parts of one material, i.e fruit peels versus fruit meat, will have different water contents, too. So these differences in initial water contents will give you a rough estimate about how much bokashi liquid you will produce.
One of the important things for a succesfull bokashi composting is not about how much liquid you will produce but how often you drain the liquid off the bin. It is recommended that you drain off the liquid every 2 or 3 days during the composting process. Liquid accumulation will not be good for your composting process as it may change the inside bin environments to which that are not supportive to the life and work of microorganisms.
