@@rabidcougar6465 not sure about the 3mm.

No. Sugar is not added. Creamed honey is another thing. I've never done that

Thanks for the note. We love garlic scapes, too! Were just getting ready to harvest our crop in a week or so. We use it to make garlic balsamic vinegar. You can see this at HTTP://cleanslatefarm.com Happy eating!!

A British friend once said to me, "Americans are so insular." After chewing on that for a while I thought it to be an odd comment from someone who lives on an island. But you know, we are quite insular as witnessed by the lack of knowledge and understanding of several things. For instance, many if not all European countries are experiencing inflation and higher prices as well. Some are worse than ours. What's more, they are also experiencing insane illegal immigration numbers. Dozens if not hundreds of people drowning in the Mediterranean trying to make their way to European countries. I'm not going to debate the merits of Trump or Biden. Not that I like Biden or hate Trump. I don't really like either of them. And that is the grand brilliance of our democracy, isn't it? I have the God-given right to say that publicly with no fear of retribution. And you do as well. We, you and I, don't have to like one or the other...or either! We don't owe it to our country to like them. What we do owe our children, our family members who fought in wars protecting these rights, and this awesome freaking country with all of its incredible opportunities and yes, flaws, is to be informed. Informed about our Bill of Rights, Constitution, electoral process, judicial system, and world history. We owe it to them to form our own opinions and not borrow someone else's. This will take effort and the gained benefit will be directly proportional to the effort expended. Until we (you and I) are informed and understand these and the challenges it will take to protect, not change them to someone's liking we are in for a rough ride. That is a guarantee. Everything else is just a distraction. That's a guarantee as well. TL/DR: We aren't the only country in this pickle. Most of the world is in the same boat. It's a worldwide problem. Be informed before casting blame or be quiet. I apologize to anyone who came to watch the video and ended up reading this political submission. Let's get back to beekeeping.

@@CleanSlateFarm I didn't come up with the term Bidenomics. Do you know who did? Joe Biden. He's the one taking a premature victory lap for a failing economy. Facts are indisputable. Inflation is raging and Biden is the one in charge for the past 3 1/2 years (Well, maybe he's not). Every time someone says something negative about Biden the response usually includes Trump. Why?

Give or take.🤪 My hope is people see there is sometimes a bit of leeway in cooking. Experimentation is fun and enlightening! Thanks for the comment.

I love all honey! Thanks for watching.

I use well water. It is very good water here. If you use chlorinated water let it sit for 24 hours, which kind of distills it...or so I'm told. Not sure of grocery store water water but look at the labels. Many bottled waters are "PURIFIED" meaning they highly filter it by reverse osmosis. Not my cup of tea. Dasani is the worst IMHO.

@@CleanSlateFarm -THXS FOR YOUR QUICK, HELPFUL RESPONSE !

I believe if you use honey it is called a Jun.

Yup. That was my grandfather's oil can. He died in 1920 so that can is over 100 years old. It's all about heritage, isn't it. Thanks for commenting

@@CleanSlateFarm You're welcome. I have to respect the manufacture of such a durable tool. May I continue to work as well at that age!

Thanks for commenting. taking a bit of a break but will be back.

@@CleanSlateFarm awesome, there are a few different people On KZbin giving advice and it’s all good I’m sure but your delivery, cadence and style really make watching a treat!

Thanks for watching. I'm sure you'll find some as they are very popular.

Thanks for watching, glad it helped.

You would need to do a second ferment in smaller bottles, 12-16 ounce. Keep at least one cup of the 1sr ferment to start a new batch. Search YT for second ferment. I don't have a video on that.

I'll remember that one for sure. So here is mine for you.....If all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail. Carpenter's truism

Just a pause...needed a bit of a break. Thanks for your concern.

@@CleanSlateFarmLove the channel, glad to hear you are enjoying a break and doing well!

It's hard for me to say. If it's a different model tractor or deck or combination it may be a different design. Go to the manufacturer's website and look for the parts catalog for your particular model. But it does sound like you may have a problem. Thanks for commenting.

Real light winters here the past few year and haven't seen this since. Thanks for commenting and your channel looks great as well.

​@CleanSlateFarm * When are you going to do another video?

Watch my vid "What is fermentation? What is pickling? Are they the same?" I'm wearing a wacky shirt in that one. I show how to ferment other things but the process is the same. Just use sliced cucumbers. Be careful on brine concentration. Shoot for 4% or so. A higher % makes crunchier pickles up to a point. Don't exceed 6%. If you need more help ask again. Thanks

Also watch the salt video. Different salt measures differently. Important to know. Thanks again

Yup...next time try a penetrating oil, like Fluid-Film or 3 in 1. Spritz a bit on and let it sit for a while then give it a go. Fluid Film is great stuff. Thanks for watching and commenting!!

I have heard honey in Europe is sold like that. What he is doing is what we in North America, is called whipped or creamed honey. I don't sell it that way but some other beekeepers do. The vast majority of honey sold in the US is not whipped. There is some comb honey sold, that which is sold with the wax still there. It's not extracted but sold as found in the hive. What we call crystallized honey is not the same as what he speaks of. Here it is a natural occurrence due to the make up of the honey. I should take some of my honey and whip it to see the result. Thank you very much for the comment. It is something I never considered when making the video.

Very interesting! I have a goal of one day producing my own honey. It is very interesting to see how it's done differently across the world, alot to learn. But am I correct in thinking that if you "whip" the ´honey that it will not crystalize later or atleast not with very big crystalls , as you have alrdy broken down the crystalls to keep the honey smoother once it does ? I also understood it as the process can happen sooner or later depending on the make up of the honey aswell. Another thing about Honey in the EU as I just read, to call it Honey here, nothing can be added or removed then you are not allowed to call it Honey anymore @@CleanSlateFarm

@@Daared81The honey bees will have an easier time making honey than you🤣. I don't make it, I just steal it from the bees. As far as the crystal size for creamed or whipped honey...that's a good question. I'll ask a local beekeeper near me as he makes whipped honey. If I find anything out I'll post it here. Thanks and enjoy the honey!!

Thanks for commenting.

Thanks for taking the time to write. I appreciate it.

Well, car tires are usually around 32 PSI so anything over that would be acceptable. The more tank pressure the faster the fill...to a limit of course.

@@CleanSlateFarm Thanks

Glad it helped. Especially now that it is "that" season.

Then whack away. Thanks for watching!

Terrific...all honey os good! Thanks for the comment!

Only if Charlie's Angels came with him, LOL

You are welcome. Thanks for watching!!

thanks for watching and replying. I'd love to hear how it goes. I think my area 5b is too cold unless it's in a greenhouse. Check our fruition Seeds channel. THey are in a the same zone and I think they manage to make it work.

I think I understand your question. I had discards that I tossed or started another batch with. All at room temp for best conditions to grow.

Be careful messing with electricity in your home. If you are not comfortable get an electrician.

Non Pasteurized, raw, untreated honey will be the same density as other honey. Thick, sticky, but not runny at normal temperature. We extract on warmer days as permitted to get as much honey from the comb as possible. Usually we do no not heat it after extraction. If we do it is only to about 100-105 F to help it flow. Any higher temp runs the risk of killing the beneficial bacteria and yeasts. Bacteria and yeast begin to di off at 120+F. As you may guess from the answer, warm honey is more runny than cold honey. Good question and I hope that helps.
