Compost heat

Got my compost up to 107 degrees today after mixing in some grass. I should have wet it a little. I think I could have hit 120, which is I guess just about the perfect temp for decomp. Hhaving hard time converting the compost quick enough. Trying a few different approaches to making compost to see, which one works best. The last one, which seems to be pretty good is spraying a mixture of 8 oz. Of amonia, 12 oz. Of cola, and 12 oz. of beer mixed together on a brown layer, then green layer, and placing your table scraps amd green leftovers from making food for the table, plus of course coffee grounds.
