Extracting 100,000lbs of Honey in 6 DAYS! Commercial Honey Production 

As someone who worked on a dairy farm and was the only white guy on my crew, the ignorant people making those comments don't realize that the majority of farm labor is done by Hispanics. If they want to be ignorant, I guess they should farm their own food or quit complaining about who touches what. 🤷‍♂️

I'm glad you stand up for your workers. You might want to think about some ear protection in the loud environment. They will thank you.

Glad you enjoyed!

Thanks 👍

Welcome!! Thank you!

I wish I could have experienced beekeeping in the 80s! We’re lucky to be able to move bees away from the shop when we’re extracting. Makes it way nicer when you don’t have to work with bees crawling on you! 😂

How many colonies you have

Thank you!!

Thank you!

Thanks a lot 😊

Glad to hear it!

100%. Thank you for the encouragement!

Nice. Yeah the Cowen 120 is very common among many larger beekeepers.

Thanks! It’s definitely a lot of honey. Usually twice as much

Thank you! Its from a company called Cowen Manufacturing!

Thanks!

Got some good stuff coming soon 😉

Thanks!

We’re in Texas! Family business. All but about 4 pallets of the boxes in the warehouse are ours.

We do not but have plenty of people that buy are wax to do that!

I have no idea what a hectare is lol... We don't filter any of our honey. The uncapper has hot knives built into it to remove wax cappings.

@@jakemoorehoney hectare of land I meant. I’m trying to figure out the spacing of your hives. Ok thank you for clarifying the cappings! I appreciate it

We bottle everything under our name and sell to several grocery stores directly!

Thank you!

It’s a family business!

Yes they’re all heating machines. We like our honey caramelized.

Thank you!

Yes it is, been watching Ian Steppler for years & I see you two have the same set up. Nice.

At least a metric crap ton hahaha

Where?

Wouldn’t sell it if I didn’t eat it 😂😂

You're going to love my next 2 videos :)

Not monitoring varroa load for various reasons.

5 on the bee crew including me for just over 3000.

Mediums go on before the flow hits. Deeps go on after that. Just preference.

Yes available at the link in the description!

Amazing!

It’s not THAT loud lol

Not inside the shop 😳 just empty supers sometimes

Check out my other videos for floral sources.

You’re right, I am! Thanks for watching ;)

What a complainer you are

This is not food production. We are harvesting a raw product. You probably need to learn more about raw honey.

He is indian

Well even a raw product is food. You‘s is actually quite a clean setup. You see many honey houses which really are dirty. The uncapping just get that dirty after 5 min of work. Gloves are the worst thing to be using in food production, they raise the dirt more then most ppl understand. But with the clothing, I‘m with him, Hair nets, and clean company clothing should be a must in food production. The guy who brings in the supers would be fine just with an apron, even the guy at the uncapper. What i also would add to your setup, is a lift, so that the guy loading the supers onto the conveyor doesn’t has to do everything by hand and saves his back/knees. Also it is fast. Really like that you are using a that conveyor/window setup. Maybe add some strips of clear plastic (the 1/4“ thick ones) to the windows. They really help keeping bugs out

I know!!!! Should have made closer to 250,000

What's the average pounds per hive?
