How To Infuse Honey

The rumors are true — LĒVO can infuse your favorite sweet treat, honey! Learn how to infuse honey with the recipe below. While LĒVO makes it super simple, there are a few important things to note about the process. To preserve the nutrients in the honey and avoid burning, the heating process must be carefully controlled. It is best to heat at a lower infusing temperature no higher than 105°F / 41°C. This will allow you to liquefy the honey and still maintain the flavor, aroma, and color. With LĒVO’s precise time and temperature control, infusing honey is as easy as setting and forgetting – set your time and temperature and go on with your day. Your LĒVO will notify you when it is ready for dispensing!

Why We Love Infused Honey:

  • You can experiment with different flavors! The blend of spiciness and sweetness is a flavor combination that we can’t get enough of. We especially enjoy hot honey on savory dishes like chicken and waffles or even drizzled on pizza.

  • Infused honey can also be used to make homemade honey gummies!

Hacks for Infusing Honey:

Now that you're eager to start your honey-infusing journey with LÄ’VO, we're here to provide you with some valuable hacks and tips that will elevate your home-infused honey game. Whether you're a seasoned infuser or a complete novice, these hacks will help you achieve the perfect infusion every time.

1. Harness the Power of LÄ’VO Lux's DRY+ Cycle

One of the key reasons we recommend the LÄ’VO Lux machine for honey infusion is its innovative DRY+ cycle. This cycle takes your infusion process to the next level by offering an elevated dry cycle, to efficiently dry your fresh herbs prior to infusion. The DRY+ cycle ensures that your herbs are thoroughly dried before the infusion begins, which is essential for optimizing the flavor profile and life expectancy of your finished product.

2. Explore the Versatile Dispense Modes of LÄ’VO Lux

Another reason why the LÄ’VO Lux machine stands out for honey infusion is its three dispense modes. One of these modes is specifically designed for dispensing viscous liquids like honey. This makes the process of pouring your infused honey into containers a breeze, without the sticky mess or wastage that can often occur with traditional methods.

The precise control offered by LÄ’VO Lux's dispensing modes ensures that your infused honey goes exactly where you want it to, and in the perfect quantity. This is particularly useful when you're creating infused honey for culinary purposes or gift-giving.

3. Choose the Right Honey Varietal and Ingredients

While having a top-notch infusion machine is crucial, your choice of honey and additional ingredients can significantly impact the flavor and aroma of your infused honey. Here are some additional hacks to consider:

  • Selecting the Right Honey Varietal: Different honey varieties have distinct flavors, colors, and aromas. For example, wildflower honey, clover honey, and orange blossom honey each bring their own unique qualities to the infusion process. Experiment with various honey types to discover which one complements your chosen infusion ingredients best.

  • Complementing Ingredients: Don't be afraid to get creative with your infusions. Experiment with herbs, spices, fruits, or even botanicals like lavender or rose petals to create unique and flavorful honey infusions. Remember that the possibilities are endless, and you can tailor you infusions to your personal taste preferences.

  • Storage Matters: After infusing your honey, store it properly to maintain its freshness and flavor. Use airtight containers to keep moisture out and protect your infused honey from external flavors and odors. Store it in a cool, dark place to preserve its quality over time.

  • Lean on Lecithin: When infusing honey with flower specifically, lecithin is the ingredient you need to help the botanicals bind to the honey. Use 1tsp of lecithin per 2 cups of honey. You can learn more about this special ingredient in our Ultimate Lecithin Guide here.
