Uncapped and spun out several frames to honey today
The workers will clean out any honey left in the frames.
Just over 3 gal. when its all said and done.
clean up and then hit the tub for a bit.
The color and flavor of honey will vary depending on the source of the nectar. I try not to mix frames from different hives when I harvest honey. As a general rule the darker the honey the stronger the taste.
The color and flavor of honeys differ depending on the nectar source (the blossoms) visited by the honey bees. In fact, there are more than 300 unique types of honey available in the United States, each originating from a different floral source. Honey color ranges from nearly colorless to dark brown, and its flavor varies from delectably mild to distinctively bold, depending on where the honey bees buzzed. As a general rule, light-colored honey is milder in taste and dark-colored honey is stronger.
