Liquid Gold

I've been a hobby beekeeper for about two years now. But this is my first year for harvesting honey. The first year you leave all the honey for your bees so they can make it through the cold winter months ahead. By the second year hopefully your bees have been busy little things, so there will be enough honey for you both.

My girls (bees) did good this year.

Last weekend we harvested this years honey...

Honey supers full of honey ready to be uncapped...

Uncapping the comb with the heat knife, so the honey will flow when placed in the spinner.

Placing the frames in the extractor and start spinning...

And spinning...

and spinning some more.

Look at all that pretty golden goodness.

Now I'm looking forward to designing some fun labels for the bottles!
