Turning layers is a way to make the compost mix hotter. Garden equipment, such as a rake, may be used to mix together and move up or down the alternating layers of carbon- and nitrogen-rich materials. Turning layers two or three times a week helps beneficial micro-organisms interact and reach more compostables and promotes proper aerating, heating and moisturizing of the compost container, pile or pit.
