Bad beekeeping 2019

A short summary post, mostly so I can point people to it, should they want to know batch numbers for any of my honey. Not that I think that is likely.

Recolte: Saturday 2019/6/22, so nearly solstice honey.
Hive pix: see this facebook post.
Youtube: vid of filtering.

* Batch number: COTON / 2019 / WMC / OF / V. "OF" is "Old Faithful" is the hive to the left in the pix; "V" is virgin, i.e. filtered only, no heating.
* Batch number: COTON / 2019 / WMC / OF / HT. "OF" as before, "HT" is for "heat treated". Do not despise the honey for this; done properly it doesn't affect the taste, but does leave it rather freer-flowing and less likely to set.
* Batch number: COTON / 2019 / WMC / CT / V. "OF" is "Copper Top" is the hive to the right in the pix; "V" is virgin, i.e. filtered only, no heating.
