The Define Phase. The Define phase is the first phase of the Six Sigma or DMAIC methodology. It is probably the simplest phase but by no means unimportant. The direction your problem solving journey takes is very much dependent on this phase.
Honey Hotline Fact Sheet z Honey Crystallization z page 3/3 Cool temperatures [below 50Â°F (10Â°C)] are ideal for preventing crystallization. Moderate temperatures [50-70Â°F (10-21Â°C)] generally encourage crystallization. Warm temperatures [70-81Â°F (21-27Â°C)] discourage crystallization but degrade the honey. Very warm temperatures [over 81Â°F (27Â°C)] prevent crystallization but encourage spoilage by fermentation as well as degrading the honey. Mesquite + Processed honey should be stored between 64-75Â°F (18-24Â°C).
Be careful not to boil or scorch the honey. Also keep in mind that you can eat the honey in a crystallized form. Just scoop out of the jar and spread it on your toast or drop it in your tea! NOTE that the bees keep the honey warm when it's in the hive so that is why it looks that way when we first get it.
