This is my first time using this type of honey. I didn't expect it to be so hard! I have to dig it out with a spoon. How can I make it more malleable?

You can microwave it for 20 seconds and it should soften some if its still hard microwave for 5 second intervals.

Bring water to a boil take it off the burner, then put jar of honey in it for 10 minutes the flip it over , it softens the honey!

It should break apart easily with a spoon is what I used. If it won't something is not right. Yes it should be powderlike.

I agree with the other responder. Great out the jar. It's amazing on banana once it's warmed up a bit so it's soft. Get some and try it out.

It's kind of like slightly dried out play-dough. I found using a combination of my fingers and a trawl work the best. I got frustrated using gloves and just used my bare hands. It will somewhat depend on what you were trying to do. I had to build up a pretty thick area and had to do several applications to build it up.

Very hard but it has to be overworked on. Best if don soon. I use antibacteria lemon or lavender handsoap. This always works with a little work. I'm glad I GOT this question. It reminded me to order more. I love it! Also great with a brush of baking powder lightly over the makeup.amazing finish.

Try emptying out the dispenser, cleaning the bottom and the top piece with hot water - then refill the top with honey and boil some water and put it in the bottom part. Put the honey filled part on top and let it sit for 5 minutes to warm the honey. After you are done using the dispenser, empty out the water in the lower part and refill it 5 minutes before using it the next time. That should do it. Remember also, you can dry the whole thing out completely if you like and you can put in dry sugar or sugar substitute inside and dispense sweetener that way if you don't want to do the honey thing... -Levon-

I blew it up w my mouth. I think I had a hard time getting it started at first. Try pulling it apart first and then blow it up. That should help. Make sure to pinch opening as well.

Just put 1/3 to 1/2 tea spoon powder mixed with little hot water to melt the powder in a cup then u can add milk and honey. Heat it up. I like to add almond milk since it's slightly sweet already. The more powder you add the rich of the green tea taste. I recommend to try 1/3tsp first and add more as needed

I don't think it's supposed to be that hard. Mine was semi-solid andvery easy to spoon out.

I am having this same problem. I use real butter, have tried mashing in hard, semi-hard and soft butters but when the room gets too warm, the butter falls out into the water. I think I may try wrapping the bottom with plastic wrap and see if that helps.

I just made sweet potato chips yesterday. I sliced them as thinly as I could, rubbed olive oil on them, and sprinkled some with sea salt and some with cinnamon. I dried them for about 11 hours, I think. They're pretty good, but I think that if I could have gotten them thinner they might have been better. They're very crunchy, but "hard" crunchy. This might be the norm for sweet potato chips, as packaged ones I've had are certainly harder than potato chips. I'm going to look for suggestions for better results, but I think this was a successful first try.

Mine was not. Maybe the honey crystalized a bit? If the grittiness looks like honey particles then I would suspect that. If it looks like a darker grit, then I would think you got a bad tube.

Totally ok...I like it like that actually it is more spreadable. Honey never goes bad. Enjoy. Oh if you want it runny heat it in a bowl of hot water.

I think you should be able to do that - I would use a little bit less rice and a little bit more water and it should come out very soft. it might take a bit of experimentation.

I had the problem of natural sugar (from Amazon) arriving hard as a brick. I dumped it all (with some effort) into a container, put in a properly soaked Sugar Bear, SEALED the container and waited a week. The sugar softened, BUT you must keep the container closed and keep the Sugar Bear in there or it will harden again. Make SURE your container really seals tight.

if it is strong and bitter or difficult to drink you are making it too strong. I boil water in a corning tea pot. remove from the stove. let it cool a bit and put a handful of stems into the water. cover and let it sit overnight. it is strong but not difficult to drink. try putting in a bit of unprocessed honey. sorry but I actually like the flavor

I had the same problem and returned the unit. I did, however, take that "milky" mixture and froze it and it was an OK ice cream .......not how it should be made !!
