The honey we harvested late last summer contained Oil Seed Rape nectar which has a reputation of setting hard. We couldn't bottle it at the time so last Sunday we set to work to sort it out.
As it had set hard we had to buy a special honey creaming drill bit as pictured below. Its quite hard work and certainly we had to watch the drill didn't over heat.

Eventually it was runny enough to pour in to jars
After a long and sticky afternoon here are 18 jars of honey - sorry about picture quality. Not the best honey as I've a feeling there are still lumps in it so more for cooking with than selling but lovely honey all the same
As ever, Thank You Bees!
Stumble It!
