Getting Honey Bottle in practice

A honey bottle comes from a hive or a nest at full honey level, taken with a glass bottle. Use a campfire under it or the bees turn on you. Honey clears poison, does not stack past sixteen, and three bottles make a honey block, which is why a bee farm ends up next to the redstone room.
