we dug a square hole,put garden net at the bottom, lined it with cinder blocks, & put a lid on it. maybe 4x4x4. We used red wigglers and african night crawlers. Lots of leaves, semi green manure, fruit,vegi, & coffee ground.
You can still see it at the house in town....20 years later. I understand how they aerate the (compost) to livin up the good microbes(kinda). Im hearing tenmillion diffirent approaches on how to 'boil' the tea. You have to have a special bags, special stuff for the microbes to eat, high powered aeraters ect. Ive seen guys use garden hoses with holes cut in em & 55 plastic drums with harbor freight air pumps. They say it works, others say you have to generate super fine air bubble to get the microbes to eat right and take off. Everyone i know looks at me like im reeruned when i bring it up. Ive seen some very fascinating studies that relate to plant growth and root depth.

then this video seemed like a good idea for a part of my yard that slopes away from my garage/shop. Plus i would have all materials on hand to make it which is a major plus and would just have to pick up some river rock or swipe a bucket of gravel off a gravel road. Either this one or the one Sac mentioned earlier in the thread. Nothing fancy as the harsh winters and ground freezes if it cracks the material after a couple years i'm only out a bucket.

this guy has an interesting method for the dog crap turning it into liquid compost over a weeks time. Not for the veggie gardens but could help out someone who is into more ornamental type stuff and supposedly improving soil quality which he shows at the end of video 4.
part 1 part 2 part 3 part 4
