    Labelling considerations

    I have various designs for different clients/outlets but all are on 2 faces. It makes sticking them on easier as you can line up the edge of the label with the edge of the jar.

    Moving from a BS Nuc to WBC / National Hive

    Well we have all been there, All those lovely frames at a bargin price. "I'm sure I can use them" :) With the mere 15yrs of beekeeping experience and plenty of similar thoughts - especially at an auction - I would do the following. 1 - bag up the 14x12 frames into lots of 20-30 frames and put...

    Filling small jars.

    I had 120 to fill for a clients crackers earlier in the year. They only took about 30 mins once I got into the swing of it. We do about 200 at this time of year (10-30 from different apiaries) and sell them in threes so people can sample subtle differences in the taste. They sell like hot...

    Filling small jars.

    I’ve been filling a few small jars this afternoon and if anyone is filling 1 or 11/2oz I would recommend using a condiment applicator as it’s quick, accurate and not messy.

    Instantvap lite

    I have the original one and find it a joy to use. The only down side is the fact we are probably all using it illegally. Either because we are using OA or vaping Apibioxal more than once. 🙁

    What’s your labour rate?

    I certainly would work for that but being retired it’s a lovely way to get a bit of pin money 😊
