restart of the composter



since my last update i have not paid much attention to my 
composter

today i have received 2 black bags of damp grass cuttings which were already warming up , this has put a big smile on my face i have added them to the chamber and am expecting temperature to rise in next 24 hours hopefully above 35c ( i can hope)

i was pleasantly surprised to see the existing contents of the chamber at 25c 

i shall allow the contents to settle in over the weekend and then give the chamber a good rotation to mix in the grass cuttings.
