Thanks for the advice!

So what if it rots? Does it need to be thrown away? Or can it still be used??

what's the difference between rotting and decomposing?

@GotYarbles Rotting is when your mixture is too wet ie slimy clagging together and the biggest indicator is smell. If it smells it is rotting. Your compost mixture should be moist but not wet. Squeeze a handful and you should not generate any drops/liquid from it. It should not smell. I generally use paper/cardboard torn up into small pieces to dry out overmoist compost and compost tea (water/chook/cow pellets) to dampen not wet compost. Took me 6 months to get it right.

The compost container in this video does not seem well suited for air transfer. Using chicken wire or fencing instead of steel seems like a better idea.
