  1. Ta… We are now using a three bay system, much easier on the back…. We flip it once a week for about two months… I’ve been monitoring our current pile and yesterday it peaked at 69.8 deg C ( 154.6 F)!!… We make two cubic metres at a time; each bay is one cubic metre… We turn into the empty bay… We’ve now spread on the gardens around 10 cubic metres and have four additional cubic metres stored up for the council verge conversion…Chris
