Now that I'm brewing all-grain, I've started a compost pile in the yard (as far from all houses as possible). This may sound silly, but is there anything special I need to do to ensure stuff breaks down effectively? Right now I basically have a pile with a split-open garbage bag secured over it. Someone told me that covering the pile was important, and besides that I don't want to encourage deer into the yard (they are a big problem here, and I could actually be fined if it looked like I was intentionally feeding them).
Is there anything else I need to do? Should the pile be ventilated?
