Hi all, just wanted to check in and give an update.

The composter I showed above is working well although I need to modify the harvest system plumbing. The ramps worked very well but the pipes clog up when there is heavy traffic. I've worked out a better system and will modify the unit soon.

I've also been testing a cast concrete composter that has a lot of promise. I've been feeding it heavily and it's been working well. I recently added a standing drain pipe similar to the storage tote composter above and I'm very happy with it. The thing weighs more than 170 pounds, but once it's in place I think the mass is helping keep it cool.



You can read more about it here: Experimental concrete composter

And here's my lab:
