The Define Phase. The Define phase is the first phase of the Six Sigma or DMAIC methodology. It is probably the simplest phase but by no means unimportant. The direction your problem solving journey takes is very much dependent on this phase.
Honey Hotline Fact Sheet z Honey Crystallization z page 3/3 Cool temperatures [below 50Â°F (10Â°C)] are ideal for preventing crystallization. Moderate temperatures [50-70Â°F (10-21Â°C)] generally encourage crystallization. Warm temperatures [70-81Â°F (21-27Â°C)] discourage crystallization but degrade the honey. Very warm temperatures [over 81Â°F (27Â°C)] prevent crystallization but encourage spoilage by fermentation as well as degrading the honey. Mesquite + Processed honey should be stored between 64-75Â°F (18-24Â°C).
Several factors determine the time it will take honey to crystallize. First, there are the conditions of the room where the honey is stored. Hot conditions protect honey from crystallizing, but they also degrade the honey and make it vulnerable to yeast and bacteria.
