Ammonia is produced when there is excess nitrogen. More carbon is needed if there is ammonia. You want to capture as much of the nitrogen as possible. Sun bleaching just bakes the ammonia off and kills the microbiota of the compost.

Underline that. As I learnt it, compost mostly benefits from drying, baking it in the sun.
