The method we use for processing small batches of wax cappings from small honey harvests is quite simple and easy. Cleaning wax doesn't need to be hard.
There are many different ways to clean wax out there. In this video I share the way we process ours, which I have found to be pretty quick and simple. And with equipment we readily have at home.
Follow along as we clean some wax. And look out for the following video, where I use some of this batch of wax, turning into lip balm.

Nothing better than spending time watching someone who knows what they are doing do something. Learnt a lot about the benefits of bee keeping today. Wax ended up such a vibrant colour.

Absolutely loved this video. I have always wondered how people collect the wax from hives. Thank you for sharing!

It is quite wonderful. And the bees 🐝 do a great job pollinating the garden too 😀

That's a tremendous amount of honey left over. I think you'd be surprised at how much useful honey would have drained out of those cappings if left on top of a queen excluder or inside some hose strainer. In your initial melt I think you'd do pretty well to add some water to the wax/honey mixture. it will separate the wax and the honey as the honey will go to the bottom and the water in the middle providing your wax with no honey stuck to the bottom. PS. Water and wax are perfectly fine together. It's water and oil that you don't want to mix.

It is so much honey still in there. Which is why I like this method as I recover every bit. That honey is no longer raw, but we use it in cooking mainly. My concern with adding water is that the water would also get to the recovered honey affecting its ability to store.

@Bush_Edge_Homesteading_Aus agreed about water and honey but that's why you leave it overnight. If you set that wax on top of a queen excluder overnight you would get about 75% of your end result as pure stull raw honey. Either way, great video!

Interesting process and I still remember how yummy that jar of honey was that you gave me years ago. 🍯

Oh...and I should mention that was the raw honey, not heated like what we recover from the cappings like this.

Fantastic video🐝. I could have used this a few years ago. Lol. I made an incredible mess and hardly got any products at the end. With the price of beeswax and honey , I'd say that's worth it. Thanks for sharing a great video 💛🖤

Not raw honey anymore, its lost most of its benefits in the heating process, but it makes a great mead.
@Bush_Edge_Homesteading_Aus
@Bush_Edge_Homesteading_Aus 6 месяцев назад
Definitely not raw, so I tend to use this as my cooking honey. For things like honey soy chicken and baking. But PLENTY of raw from the harvests too 😀
