How to filter honey before placing into jars
2008年12月2日 — You can produce clear, clean honey without filtering. One simple way is to use one of those 5 gallon 'bottling buckets'. Pour the honey into the bucket. Let it sit for a week or so (the colder the honey the longer the wait). The junk will float to the top. You bottle the honey from the bottom of the bucket.
what size filter do you use to strain your honey? | Beesource ...
2019年5月31日 — Push the bag down into the 5 gallon pail, roll the rim of the bag out and over the outside of the pail. Extract honey and wax into the bag and then slowly pull up or suspend the bag with bungy cord. You end up with a bag with the wax inside and a pail of filtered honey. I have nightmares about trying to filter using the trays again.
Ok lets clear this up: Raw vs. Pure - Filtered vs. Strained.
2011年3月22日 — Yours is strained, not filtered. Filtering requires heating. 200 micron filtration will most likely require warming/heating the honey. 400 micron works fine. Put the 400 under the 600 micron strained. If imported honey is labeled "Pure" I would feel free to say the same...

How fine Do You Filter Honey? | Beesource Beekeeping Forums
2012年6月15日 — Remember that the finer you filter your honey the more goodness you'll lose such as pollen clear honey has almost none. So much for the nutrients when you heat it up also. Any time you use heat it changes the molecular composition of everything the heat touches. Like when you reheat coffee it gets that nasty taste far different from fresh brew.
How to clean scum off top of settled honey?
2014年8月23日 — I just wait two or three days following extracting (into a 5 gal. bucket); after that I simply tap the honey directly into jars from the gate valve on the bottom of the bucket. When the top micro wax is about to be drawn off, I drain it into jars for home use.
Filtering honey - Beesource Beekeeping Forums
2011年2月26日 — It's plenty good enough in this context to know cheesecloth is a coarser "filter" than a paint/honey strainer. And a paint/honey strainer is a coarser "filter" than a coffee filter. If filtering (or straining) with a cheesecloth doesn't clean up your honey to suit your needs, then filter (or strain) with a finer media to achieve the results you ...

What to do with the waxy scum that floats above extracted honey?
2007年12月16日 — The skimmed honey in the 5 gal. bucket is warmed and run through the fine nylon paint strainer in to the bottling tank. I only process about 120 lbs at a time for bottling. The easyest way is to place all extrated honey in in one holding tank, let settle and draw off clear honey above bottom of tank.
Michigan Food Processing Law as it relates to filtered honey
2006年6月11日 — The difference in "heated or filtered" is the fact that anything but comb honey is considered processed. Part of this process is the removal of large bee parts, etc., which is the "filter" part of it. The heated portion is just an add on to the description by some past ignorant person who had a limited knowledge of honey processing.
