[quote=Anonymous]Like 10:50, I build a 3 bin composter with free pallets.  It probably took a couple hours because I wasn't familiar with the impact driver.  I have one bin that's done composting, another that is in the midst of composting and another where I put all the new materials.  In the house, I have just a regular large bowl that we put our used coffee filters/grounds, egg shells and vegetable scraps in.  Every other day or so, I'll either dump it in the compost bin or put it in a regular old rubbermaid bucket on the porch.  Once that's full (or I'm in the backyard), I'll dump it into the compost bin and throw some leaves on top of it.

Like with coffee making, you could be all scientific about it, measuring temperatures and ratios.  I don't.  I just throw it all in the bin - including onions, citrus and hot peppers.  The only thing I don't put in there are weeds or diseased plants.  Grass clippings stay on the lawn. I have been known to take bagged leaves from the curb at my neighbors' houses......[/quote]
