Various embodiments are described herein for an apparatus that implements one or methods for producing compost. The method may include receiving waste in a composting apparatus, the waste having a first moisture content; pre-treating the waste to produce pre-treated waste; storing the pre-treated waste into a storage chamber for a pretreatment time period to produce stored waste; and composting the stored waste in a compost chamber to produce a batch of output compost having a second moisture content, wherein the second moisture content is less than the first moisture content.
