What temperature do I need to heat my bucket of heather honey to, to allow me to jar it please?
 
As I understand it heather honey is thixotrophic and liquifies when agitated then returns to a jelly like state when allowed to rest. Maybe you don't need to heat it?
good chance after all this time that it has crystalised to some extent. justt heat as per any other honey and hive it a frequent good stirring as some crystals are stubborn to liquefy.
