Effect of surface area of clay pots on physicochemical and microbiological properties of stingless bee (Geniotrigona thoracica) honey

High moisture content (>20%) in stingless bee (kelulut) honey contributes to many undesirable reactions that deteriorate the quality of the honey. This study proposed an alternative method to facilitate moisture reduction in Geniotrigona thoracica honey using unglazed clay pots with different sur...
