So the question here is heat. My pile (only 3 weeks old) is by all definition warm.
Before I turn my pile, The top of the pile is most definetely warm to the touch and you can feel heat generating from the pile.
When I turn my pile, I quickly remove my gloves and dip my hands into the pile and i feel warmth, warmer than the top, but not hot (like 150 degree hot).
The pile compacts to about 50% of its size weekly and I am not too worried about this yet... Or.. Should I be????
