A good home-sized compost technique is to get lengths of chicken wire, and tie them into cylinders about as far across as they are high (which of course is controlled by the width of the wire). You plop your crap... the stuff you want to compost, that is... into there, cover it with a little dirt if it might stink or draw flies. When it's full, put a good layer of dirt on top and start another one. By the time the third one is full, the first one (at my speed, at least) is ready for use. The advantage is that enough air gets in to avoid that ammonia smell that you get when it goes anaerobic. No need to stir or turn it. Doesn't work so well for big batches of lawn clippings, and stuff like that, but fine for ordinary kitchen and garden waste. When I was a kid I always kept a pile of rotting leaves somewhere, gave an eternal supply of worms for bait.
