today as i rotated the drum it was a pleasure to see steam rising out of the chamber. i have noticed the my compost has been reducing in mass. and need to source out more organic matter to keep my Bactria feeding and gaining more heat.
the local Italo Deli in Bonnington Square are kindly saving me their organic waste to add to my compost. i may even have to ask some neighbours to help too.
have added more cardboard today to absorb excess moisture as getting the right humidity is all done by eye. this year i have been adding more cardboard than previous attempts.
the temperature was 30c . i suspect the drop is due to the mass of compost that has dropped .
i am only using vegetable waste cooked /uncooked so far as adding meat is possible but not until i have a constant temperature above 60c
