Default Composting Live Oak leaves

In article , "cat daddy" wrote:

My experience was that it took two years to compost (no turning and they
are all but waterproof) and when I spread it out on the "lawn", it killed
it. I blame the tannin in the oak leaves...


When it gets fully composted, does the tannin go away? Or is this going
to be a continuing problem with compost that is nearly 100% oak leaves?
