Has anyone ever used the small closet dehumidifiers (costing ~$40) to lower the moisture content of small quantities of honey? I was thinking of putting one inside a couple of empty boxes and then placing honey supers (with a lid on top) on that. I'm thinking that if I have less than around 10 supers this would make a nice little dehydration chamber without the expense of a larger dehumidifier and it wouldn't take up too much room. Thoughts?

I do something similiar when I heat honey up before extracting.

It worked GREAT! I have a friend who also uses one in his honey house & likes to have a fan blowing at the same time to dry out the supers even faster. I hope that helps! -Danno
