Alternatively, you can buy a tumbler compost bin like the Squeeze Dual compartment model that’ll make this part of the process easier. The thing you need to be aware of with this, or any vermicompost product, is that it won’t produce the amount of, or even the same kind of, compost that you can rub through your fingers like soil. What you get instead, is a fertiliser liquid, that you can drain out using the provided tap, and then spray it onto your plants.
