Honey Harvest Aug 2022

We harvested honey last weekend and bottled it this weekend.  We had 30 frames full of honey and filled one and a half 5 gallon buckets of liquid gold.

This is the wax capping that we have to cut off to harvest the honey.  This is a messy job!

 After letting the honey sit for a week to get the air bubbles out, we bottled it.  Total was about 75 lbs of honey which was 60 12 ounce bottles and 25 16 ounce bottles.  Plus some that needed more straining in some take out containers.
