> No offense, Phillip, but I question the legitimacy of some of those methods. Honey certainly dissolves in water, and lighter, thinner varieties dissolve just as easily as sugar syrup in my experience.
As I said earlier, I was not referring to any other test nor recommending any other test. But having looked back at the thread that Hops so graciously found and posted, I have now been enlightened by Mr Vans several post. By taking his time and truly explaining to we here at beemaster, of adulterated honey.
Since I know for a fact that my honey is pure as according to the cotton test, I intend to also try the moisture test that Mr Van described on that same topic 2 years ago. Mr Van did not say how long it would take for real honey do dissolve after it puddles. I will try and measure that period of time as well.
Quoting Mr Van. In His Reply#(14)
"The solubility test was a wash, I could not tell the difference. This test is simple: drop a drop of Honey in a glass of water, pure honey will puddle, dilute honey will dissolve. There was a slight difference but my eyes are not as good as they used to be."
