What if the compost pile has an unpleasant odor?

A well constructed composter should not produce unpleasant odors. However, if it emits an ammonia odor, the problem might be too much green feed stock, if it emits a rotten egg odor it might be too little air. To solve this problem, aerate the pile and treat with CBCT.
