Worm composting is so cool. I worked on a farm in Florida that had a huge plastic bin full of soil for vermiculture and iirc the worms would go down to the bottom to be cool enough in the summer, but I don't remember the details.

If you take care them well and have a space they can be kept indoors and won’t stink up the place. In an apartment might be tough to find room, though.

Three bucket worm bin! I keep one in my kitchen and it doesn't smell with proper care.

It is the 5 gal bucket I use for kitchen scraps. In the winter I line it with a garbage bag so I don't have yo wash the bucket in the cold.

I can usually dump it out and reuse the garbage bag once before it gets too smelly.
