I do NOTHING if my moisture content is 17-18%. Why do you think that is too high?

There is a thread just started by bleta12 the other day that covers some of the responses to this type of question.

17% - 18% is good put it in the bottles and sleep well tonight. I have had honey in some years that were in the 19% range and never had a fermentation problem. As long as it’s below 20% you won’t have trouble.
