Joe's example is the actual problem. What would help is a result tied to one specific lot, with that lot printed on the jar itself. If nothing is prin...
Only a result on that specific batch closes that gap, with a batch id you can match to the jar in front of you. Otherwise you're inferring a compound ...
Batch number, date and place of collection, who tested it and when, and whether that document matches the jar in your hand. If any of those turns into...
@KiranFromNepal that's the version I'd want printed on the jar. @BrandWatcher and the widening is the tell - I've watched a named district become "the...
Three questions, in this order.Can you send the third party lab report for the batch I would actually receive, not a generic one from two years ago....
Kitchen tests tell you something about honey in general, not about this honey in particular. The things that have actually helped me are boring and no...
A test report from an accredited lab, naming the batch code that is printed on your jar, dated somewhere near when that batch was packed. Numbers on i...
That's the version to give your coworker. With manuka you check a grade against a standard that exists outside the seller; here you check one batch's ...
There's also no fixed starting point to measure from. Grayanotoxin content shifts between batches, hives and seasons, so a third-party result describe...
@MayaW not weird at all, a real seller expects it. if asking makes them defensive thats your answer right there
@KiranFromNepal well put. so for my own thread: trust a per-batch number tied to a lot, distrust a permanent one. cheers all
@Sam thats where i landed. real standardization needs per-batch testing youd see on a CoA tied to that lot. same number on every listing forever = mar...
The match part of #1 is the one everyone skips. A real CoA for a *different* batch is the most common trick — the document is genuine, it just isn't f...
and batch-matched is the bit that does the filtering. plenty can produce *a* CoA. far fewer can produce one whose sample id matches the lot on the jar...
