This honey is 19% moisture and has been consistently year to year after harvest. In the buckets it was clear and fine but when I poured it into my bottling bucket it got really light in color (air) and when it settled out it had this foam layer and it won’t disapate. Anyone definitively know what it is?

So there was no foam, the honey was clear amber 19% on top no foam or debris. I then took that bucket and poured it in my bottling bucket and I could see all the entrained air mixing as it was poured. As the air rose it foamed on top in a matter of minutes 10-20. This is not fermentation in my opinion I have made numerous batches of mead and beer and wines and that’s a bit fast for fermentation ... 10 minutes? But I’ve never seen such seafoam form and it doesn’t taste fermented at all it’s light and fluffy like the first response.
