I was goin through my e-mail and clearing some messages.  I have learned
that if you take a black plastic garbage bag and cut a circle equal to
the diameter of the bucket you have your honey in.  Take the piece of
plastic and press it down down on the honey to get the air out. Leave it
on for  two days and then pull the plastic off any debree will stick to
the plastic and the honey will be clear.
