Do you have a refractometer? Sometimes you can take in stuff thats not capped. My mentor told me some colonies will never cap the end frames even when its dry enough. You've probably heard of a horizontal hive yes? I really like your video, ive only just found your videos, i cant wait to watch more lol. I love how you find humour in everything, its very inspiring 😊

Thanks for the kind words. I gotta get a refractometer. I have actually started building a horizontal hive (a couple of years ago) and hope it will be easier to manage from a chair.

Used to have a buddy that I worked with who kept bees. I'd help take care of his garden when he was on vacation and he'd give me about a quart of his honey every year. By far the absolute best honey I've ever had. Man was I bummed when he moved out of the state.
