Alex I am not sure that it works as I have never tried to hurry the process, for me it don't matter if it's green or rotten, if I have to turn it I will regardless.

A tip I have seen to be tried with apparently very good result is a dustbin full of dry wood shavings / sawdust, the pieces to be dried buried in the middle of them then left outside in natural atmosphere with lid on.

I am assured the moisture is drawn from the wood into the shavings but who knows, Have fun I hope you find a successful way you can pass on for the benefit of mankind.
