Honey Processing
Honey processing involves several steps to ensure that honey is safe, pure, and ready for consumption. After bees collect nectar and convert it into honey, beekeepers harvest the honey from the honeycomb. The honey is then filtered to remove impurities like wax, pollen, and bee parts, ensuring a clear product.
Once filtered, the honey may be pasteurized, which involves heating it to kill any yeast and extend shelf life. Finally, the honey is packaged in jars or bottles for sale. Proper processing helps maintain the quality and flavor of the honey while making it safe for consumers.
