What this sheet is for
Say which extraction and which bucket any jar came from, and which customers took the rest of that lot, without digging through receipts.
Who it is for
Beekeepers selling honey at the gate, at markets or to shops, and small honey packers bottling from bought-in bulk.
How to use it
- Fill in the apiary or producer and the season once at the top.
- Log each bottling run as it happens: the bucket or tank, the lot number you put on the label, the jar size, how many jars and the fill weight as labelled.
- Every time jars leave — a market, a shop delivery, a gate sale worth noting — add a row to the lower table against the lot number.
- Keep the sheet with the extraction record it links back to.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Every jarring run from a bulk bucket or settling tank — which extraction it came from, how many jars of what size it made, the lot marked on the label, and then where those jars went.

Questions
Why is there no jar weight or label wording printed here?
Because what has to appear on a honey label, and which jar weights you may sell, are set by the rules where you trade and can differ between countries. The sheet gives you a column for the fill weight you actually labelled, and nothing more.
How does this differ from the honey harvest and extraction record?
That sheet stops at the bucket: which hives, what came off, what was extracted. This one starts at the bucket and follows the honey into jars and out to customers.
