Hi, I use 15 vanilla pods per 5 litres of honey. 20 Cinnamon sticks per 5 litres and 400gr or more for root ginger.

Today I treated my colonies for a 2nd time in 2 weeks. Will do a 3rd next week. I’ve never scratched the cappings. I sew full frames of capped brood which is the earliest I’ve seen before. Still, it is what it is. Wishing you a successful season.

How did you make the ginger one?

@andycope5985 8 ай бұрын

Bought at least half a kilo of fresh root ginger, sliced it thinly and placed on wire racks in the oven and at a very low temperature, took out some of the moisture. Then tipped it all in the honey and stirred daily until happy with the flavour, then strained through a filter. The reason for taking out some moisture is, that the honey will go over 20 percent moisture content if not but if it's just for you and not for sale, it doesn't matter.

@matthewshaw3470 8 ай бұрын

Thank you I was wondering about the moisture content. I was planning on using powdered gingers for that reason.

Andy - Great demonstration and video editing as well!! Question: Is the seed honey straight honey or is it infused as well? Also - I just purchased some Ground Premium Ceylon Cinnamon and not the sticks. Have you used the this before and if so, how much would you recommend the ratio to be? Thanks again!!

@andycope5985 8 ай бұрын

Hi, I've not tried infusing with ground cinnamon so it would be a matter of trial and error really. I tended to judge the strength by sampling regularly until I thought the flavour strong enough. By using ground cinnamon, you may need quite a fine filter at the end of the process as it could be too grainy.

I just added the first round of runny honey and I didn't weight it out. with that said what happens if I added to much? I think about 12% my eye's aren't calibrated. Should I leave it set more then 2 weeks or just bottle it or toss it and start over

We cut out all the frames which had brood in them, the remaining frames were kept in isolation for 4 weeks which should be long enough for any disease to die out, and re-used them. Cleaned boxes with hot washing soda water.

Hi. I'm Essam from Syria. In Summer season , if temperature is about 35 c.d. . Will creamed honey turn back to runny honey ( liquid ) ?

@andycope5985 Жыл бұрын

Hi Essam, unfortunately creamed honey will turn back to runny honey above 30 deg c. Unlike runny honey, it would be best to keep it in a fridge or somewhere below 20 deg c.

Great explanation, Andy. Thank you. This year my spring honey has set solid in the jars presumably because far more oil seed rape has been grown around here than usual. Am I able to cream it using your method if I very, very gently warm the jarred honey, empty it into a bucket and use it as the 'runny honey' part of the procedure? Sorry if it seems a stupid question! Thanks.

@andycope5985 2 жыл бұрын

I'm sure you can, although we don't have oil seed rape up here. You would have to make sure that the runny honey has definitely not got any crystals in it as this will seed the honey with the coarse crystals. But it's well worth a try as when it works, it is really smooth and delicious! Just make sure that the honey is cooled down completely before adding the seed honey.

@@AM-tn8yu Sorry, we misinterpreted your question. In our case, the brood and all the comb would have been infected with the virus so we had to melt down all the wax and boil the frames in soda water. If the brood was healthy, we would have definitely used this to boost another colony.
