Honey Bottling



After extracting the honey, we left it to strain and set up a few days. By letting it set, the air bubbles rise and debris that may have made it through the strainer will rise to the top of the honey where you can skim it off. We used a 400 micron strainer, so we didn't see any debris on the top of our honey. We then began the bottling process! We ended up with 42 bottles of honey, and will get another 2 or 3 from the wax cappings we cut off the frames. (see previous post) The fruit of our precious bee's labor. These girls are amazing!
