Thank you Predrag

  I pour the extracted honey into a SS tank to allow the debris(wax  
etc) to rise to the top.  When the honey is bottled later the   
moisture is checked every so often.  The first honey (bottom) is  
always the lowest moisture, while the last (top ) is the highest, with  
intermediate checks ranging between the two.  Most significant  
readings,  from one tank, noted this year  13.2% -17-2%.  If as you  
are bottling, the moisture level rises to the danger level, STOP. Use  
the remaining honey in the tank for mead, beer, or sell it as cooking  
honey needing to be used quickly & refrigerated.
