I have two hives and was fortunate to harvest 60 lbs. of honey last fall
and still leave sufficient honey stores for my over-wintering bees.   The 
supers were capped off before extracting with an electric spinning machine.
  I then heated the honey to 105 degrees and put the honey in jars.   I
note that the honey, which was so clear when bottled is now turning cloudy.
   Does anyone know what I might have done wrong in this first year?   Is 
there a cure?   I am not selling honey, but am giving it to neighbors and 
friends.  Even so, we don't want to give away less than perfect honey.   
Thanks to anyone who might have a though on this.
