I participated in a home composting pilot project in Madison years ago.

I use the "Mill" food waste compactor, processor, dehydrator. It is not "composting" but achieves basically the same ends. Food scraps go in, lovely fertilizer/soil amendment comes out. It is a bit pricey $1000 but it works for me.
