Here is a step by step guide
1. Place a 2 ft x 2 ft piece of butcher paper on a flat surface near the hive.
2. Inspect a frame of honey for open cells.
3. Hold both sides (side bars) of the frame.
4. Hold the frame over the butcher paper.
5. Hold the open cells of the frame, so the open cells are facing away from you.
6. Quickly shake “one time” the frame
7. Now inspect the butcher paper to see how many drops of honey are on the butcher paper.
8. If there are 10 drops or less, I proceed in extracting the honey.
9. More than 10 drops of honey will let you know the honey still has a high amount of moisture and the beekeeper should return the frame back into the hive for the proper evaporation to be completed.
