Decided to give the tumbler system a try. Read lots of pros and cons but it’s my first go around so we’ll see.
I planned to wrap or paint it black to hold better heat. I haven’t punched the temp at all. Some days I can feel it when I open it up but could mostly be radiant from the barrel.
It smells good to me (earthy) with minimal stink. I was worried because the only air being introduced is by the PVC I drilled holes in and ran through but the moisture content of the entire mix is pretty consistent.
Poly barrels were a marketplace find which contained a fully organic solution before hand and the A frame I used to tumble that size came from a countertop supply store. It’s how the massive pieces of material were stored and shipped. Store was selling them cheap online which made for a wicked easy conversion!
