Hit 50 pounds of compost in my kitchen corner after 8 months

I started a worm bin under my sink in January and just weighed my finished castings at 52 pounds. That's a lot of banana peels and coffee grounds for a 600 square foot apartment. How much are you guys collecting in a year with your small setups?

Hit 50 pounds of compost" - just a heads up, that's more like half compost and half partially broken down scraps unless you sifted it. Your mileage may vary, but true finished castings are usually way lighter after they dry out a bit.

Oh yeah, ABSOLUTELY. I weighed mine once and it was a solid 15 pounds of rocks and twigs I had to pull out by hand.
