Thanks for posting!

Out of curiosity, could you talk more about the practical utility of the sensor readings you get while monitoring compost? Temp and moisture seem straightforward, but e.g., does gas composition imply anything about C/N ratio, or does it check if the pile is going anoxic? Is air pressure a general proxy for decomposition rate?

Also, have you changed any of your own composting practices due to what you’ve learned from your experience with monitoring?
