What I've learned so far is: there's many ways to skin a cat. I have no grounds for complaint.

Thinking Whistling

For what it is worth; In summer I put the coffee/tea bag grounds on/in the compst heap; in winter I dig a deap hole and put the grounds/bags in the hole; in spring I ususally empty the hole and turn the contents into the soil with a rototiller.

I have a cold compost bin, very rarely turned over at all, and every X number of years, will spread it over the garden, and till it in.
Some times I have a pile of items that do not rot very fast and I will dig a large square or rectangle and put the nasty stuff in there and bury it, some times I put the entire pile in there and bury it, then rototill the contents months later.
