> The honey is thinner than in the past-less viscous. >What is the possibility of this honey being too high moisture since it was virtually 100% capped. Generally speaking being capped means the moisture is in the correct range but not always. Generally speaking sealed honey in our area will be in the 19.5 % range if the weather has been rainy. Unsealed honey or nectar *can* run as high as 22% moisture content in our area. Only a small amount can raise the moisture content of honey in the 18.5% range . Sealed honey will pick up moisture if kept in an area of high humidity. I always tell beekeepers which have not got a moisture tester or a method of testing the moisture to take a jar of store honey and a sample of theirs and set together in a room until the temperatures are the same (important). Then turn both jars and compare. you should be able to tell easily if your honey is too thin. Most store honey is around the 18.5% range. If too dry many packers add water to get the honey in the 18 % range (little known fact). Honey from the Dakota's can be so thick the honey is hard to spin from the comb as most is in the 16% range in dry years.
