Hi Bill,

I devised a warmer that will allow me to stack 6 shallow supers on a stand

with a one degree thermostat that controls 2- 150 watt light bulbs and a 
circulation fan.

This stand has an aluminum sheet, about 0.0020"  thick as a drain board to 
keep

honey from running to the floor and as a baffle to keep light from reaching 
the supers.

I space supers with stacking sticks to allow air to move thru the supers 
freely.

I set the thermostat at 114 degrees F to warm, but not too warm, and leave 
this for 5 days.

I have fair success with it.

Lionel
