The First Batch Of Honey

This is a frame of honey caped with wax.
We  use a hot knife to take of the cap.
 You can save the wax to make candles or lotion.  We did not remove the wax from the frame.  We only took the caps.  If you save the wax on the frame, the bees will clean it and reuse it.
 Use a spinner to get the honey out of the frame.  It comes out of the bottom where we put it through a filter.
Here we are bottling the filtered honey.  We sold all 30 lbs.
