    Hi Laurance. Look forward to your video about reducing water content in buckets. I've got that problem at the moment. Great video again, thanks 👍

      Thanks Kaine. I can get that one done over the winter. Really simple though. Sealed room. Dehumidifier. Lots of stirring :D

    Great video man, a piece of kit which should be in every beekeepers kit! Hope you are well :)

    Please make a video on how to combine hives. I have a problem with my splits and im planning to return them back to their own hives.

      If you search for combining hives it should come up on the channel.

    I pulled 15 frames, had 3 half frames with nectar but I couldn't extract it right away (family emergency) so II tossed them in the freezer to protect it from any hive beetles. Now after thawing it reads 21.5 :( not sure why its so high but I've made a hot room at 92 degrees with 40% humidity and fans blowing thru it. Do you think it will be ok if I get it to come down?

    Hi, What was your process to reduce the water content of your heather crop ?

    hello, how is my capped honey reading 26% the same as the uncapped?

    Hi Lawrence….. Can you please recommend a refractometer. Xmas coming, I need to drop a few hints, so she knows which one to get. Thank you. 🤝

    How long does it take the bees to repair the damage to the comb?

    hello,
    how are you calibrating your meter ? i have the same meter as you the instructions say to get the blue/white line on the zero but our scale doesnt start at zero ?

      Sunflower oil should measure at 25% or extra virgin olive oil should measure 27%. Thats how i calibrated mine. Double check online
