How do you sieve your home made compost?
Apologies if this has been asked before, probably a bit of a newbie question here.
I have a couple of compost heaps that look like the will be ready to be used soon. I have one of those green round sieves that I put it though to get any debris out before using. However there are two problems:
1. When you have a lot to sieve it takes a lot of time
2. the surface area is too small
Does anyone sieve over a wheelbarrow of larger box and if so do you use sheets of mesh? If so where do you get them from and how many gauges of mesh do you use.
Thanks

How big is your sieve? I think it would have to be pretty big and doing it over a wheelbarrow sounds a good idea. That's if you really want to sieve it.
Richard - If it’s just to be used as a mulch I really wouldn’t bother.
