HONEY TRAP!!!



Today was the day to remove the honey from the hive.


5 whole frames were capped and should have produced around 5kg of honey.
Some of the honey had crystallized and after checking it seems that the vast amount of raspberry canes have given us a higher sugar yield, hence crystallized honey.


However, after warming and spinning the frames, the liquid honey started to come out.
Only about 4kg, but we will be better off for the knowledge next spring.
