I am so impressed at how fast your worm box must do its work.
We have outdoor bins which work well (and feed the raccoons at the same time), but I've been curious/nervous about these indoor boxes. I was wondering if it might make composting more convenient to have the thing in the house, but nervous that we produce too much compost to really decompose that fast.
How much stuff do you typically put in there in a day or a week (or whatever time frame makes most sense to you)?
I'd say i add a few pounds a week. The worms will basically grow to the size they need (to some extent) numberwise anyway. It does take some maintenance compared to throwing it out back. IF that works, i;d stick with it, but if you are game to try something new, worms are a great way to go.

Yep. Much, um, warmer. You know, for pictures of trash...
