isn't the point of filtering it for things like bits of bugs, wax and impurities that isn't the sugar?

Idk anon, don't you think raw honey as a distinctly different texture and taste to regular honey? Even better is creamed honey. That layer of frothy white on top is perfect for toast.

All honey is filtered to some degree, for the exact purpose you mention.

What they mean here is that the pollen has not been filtered out.

Antibiotics mostly. If you cook honey at all you fuck that up though. Regular honey you buy at a regular store is just bullshit sugar. Get it locally or farm bees yourself

All this marketing bullshit is a scam, if you want good honey find a local bee keeper and talk to him. Always assume that anyone who has money for advertisements cares more about maximizing profit than producing good food. In beekeeping it's a super common practice to rob all the honey from all the supers(honeycombs in boxes on top) and only leave the broodchamber(box on bottom with queen and eggs) but if you do that all your bees starve, so you mix up some sugar water and put it in a dish inside and the bees make honey from and live off sugar. The end result is still 100% honey. Try some real honey one day and you'll see what I mean.

no, it's a pretty well documented property of honey

>1 brood box
Confirmed for not knowing about bees. Pic on the right is a 2 brood box setup which is standard nowadays. The left hive was relatively new and needed to go a little longer before second brood box was added. Stop being a stupid shit, ok?

> it’s fucking sugar

No, it’s honey.

It’s full of antioxidants and, if there’s still some honeycomb in it, it has plenty of fiber.

Plus it has at least 30% less sucrose per unit volume than refined sugar

Sugar is scientifically proven to belinked to increased risk of obesity and cancer. Honey his not.

How about you fucking educate yourself before you go posting misinformation that makes yourself look stupid and spreads misinformation? I suggest a subscription to Scientifuc American.

It depends on your region. 2 broods are more common up north. Welcome to beekeeping anon, stay humble as there is a lot to learn! :)

>>11053578
It all depends on the queen. Yours is a good setup. One year I had that girl laying eggs in my supers whilst running 2 deep brood Chambers. Excluders are wonderful, but they do slow down the workers a bit...tend to get a little less production, but maybe that's just me.

Yeah, except "sugar" has a specific linguistic connotation. The OP didn't say glucose or sucrose. He said "sugar." And because we're on a cooking board, "sugar" is most likely to be understood as literal sugar. Categorically, sugars are carbohydrates anyway, so comparing the colloquial "sugar" to a specific term like "lipid" doesn't make sense.

Honey has a lot of health properties, but the normal honey you get at the store is normally cut or entirely made up of rice syrup. That's why raw, locally harvested honey is better.

No it doesn't. Linguistically, any sweet tasting, soluble carbohydrate is a sugar. This includes, monosaccharides and disaccharides.
Table sugar, or sucrose, is only one of the many known sugars.
