Let's all appreciate how much work is in those bottles. How hard the honeybees work to produce that much. I honestly believe honey is charged high enough. It's truly incredible how we're able to enjoy it as a treat when I read one article saying it takes 252 bees to produce 1 teaspoon of honey each day.

Thanks for that information. Never knew that. I do know that it takes a single bee consuming 7 pounds of honey to make 1 pound of wax. And yet honey is more expensive than wax. It's kind of interesting to me.

@OurHavenHoney Год назад

A square piece of wood, enough to cover the top and about 1/4 thick will work, placed on top of the buckets will allow you to stack em up to three high. The collapse comes from the weight directly on the lid.

I stacked my honey buckets and last year one collapsed into another, it was a mess, I don’t stack anymore lol. Thanks for doing this demonstration, I’ve been thinking about making a purchase next year on either the quick fill or a bottling tank. We harvested around 900 lbs this year…God is good!

@MichaelofYurtBees Год назад

Here is a serious suggestion for your extractor: replace those metal lids with plexiglas. It won't be as sharp (you can sand the edges very smooth) and you can view the extraction process. That is how mine is set up. Everything is made in China and the quality of instructions are usually poor anyway.

@pankonen Год назад

A trick for stacking 2-3 high is to cut some plywood pieces a little bigger than the outside of your lid. That will evenly distribute the weight across he side walls of the bucket. The other thing is not all buckets are created equal. Some Manufacturers will tell you the weight capacity. I usually never stack more than 2-3 high for any duration. Awesome tips, loved the video! If you bump to a bigger extractor have a look at Hillco bees. They are built like tanks and he warranties them for 10 years!

If you want to stack the pails, lay a piece of plywood between each layer. Wouldn't go anymore than 3 high. Plywood balances out the weight distribution.

My son had third degree burns from a radiator. This wasn’t the first bad burn. The first time he went to hospital and given the silver cream. The second time he came to my house a smeared my honey on burn in place of the silver cream. That not only healed faster, the pain was gone and no scaring like previous burn. Honey is a miracle,

I burned my hand with boiling coffee. I had a little cooler coffee in my stainless steel cup. When I poured the boiling coffee in the cup it came right back out and burned the whole top of my hand. I had a blister that covered the whole top of my hand. The blister was so heavy the skin came off. I was told to use medihoney on it. It do not scar. None at all.

@caydancebloom Год назад

I’m excited to learn more about the medicinal qualities of honey. Can you also touch on something I don’t understand…. Sometimes I will see honey marketed (for example) “red clover honey.” Bees have a wide range they forage. How do they know what kind of specific honey that is? I heard that bees are loyal to flower types. Is that true? It would certainly explain it… but can you talk about all that?! They fascinate me and I like geeking out on the scientsy stuff sometimes. Why and how do they choose a specific flower/pollen type? Does a hive “change its mind” from one season to the next? I’ve thought maybe it’s about the nutrients that the hive needs … but I can’t see how that wouldn’t vary throughout a season.

@royschrader8003 Год назад

Sell the extra extractor to a beginner bee keeper. I remember 15 years ago when I started, getting an extractor was a deal. I do keep my hives to a minimum. I gives extra bee colonies to my niece. I'm a city bee keeper. Having to many can be dangerous for neighbors. Great job and nice set up.

@L2FlyMN Год назад

For the sharp edges on the lid, you can cover it with a fuel line split end to end, then slip it over, works on lexan/plexiglass also, to cover those sharp edges.

@KimoPollock Год назад

Just a thought from non-keeper. If you put the bucket lid lower than the pump when back flowing, you might save some wear and on the pump. There's probably a similar way when starting. Maybe have a special bucket with a fitting at the bottom that you pour other buckets of honey into thereby saving more wear on the pump.

@ApiaryManager Год назад

There's an old trick where you shake a frame of honey over the open hive. If anything falls onto the frames, it's still not dry enough. If nothing falls, it's ready to extract.

@bjrningebrserud4518 Год назад

The correct way to use the refractometer is to read the Brix. You Brix was 81,6, that mean your honey have a water content of 18,4%, still below 20% and good to go😃👍🏻

@Chris-yo4ks Год назад

I bought the 18 frame extractor a few years ago.......finally got tired of the thing shaking and wobbling.....so I built a wooden frame out of 4x4s.....I also strap that to a solid object to mitigate the wobble. Balancing the load as you go is a must also. I see I am not the only beekeeper that buys mason jars for honey......seems wrong to buy single use containers.....even though I have bought some squeeze bottles since people were asking for them. Most are just fine with jars.

@honeymcdonald9120 Год назад

I love my flow hive it makes all the extraction process a joy and I get the different flavours from each frame.

@beesintheweeds Год назад

Hey there, nice video! Question: Did you mean to say to leave the empty jar on the scale before zeroing? This would ensure the amount that is weighed is 100% honey weight. Thanks!

@robertstwalley3662 Месяц назад

We have the same bottling machine from a different vendor, we really like it, instructions are terrible as best, I did mess with it enough to get the auto feature going correctly. It has the ability to know your empty tare weight and when it is done filling a jar it will sit and wait until you remove a full and put back a jar that weights the right amount "empty", and then it automatically starts filling the next jar. It is a great machine, Once you figure out the programming.

You should give Hillco LLC. A try , a family run operation that provides support and tech. Help all the time , not that you would need it most likely . John the owner most often will pick up on the phone calls . We purchased an 18/9 radial ultra max extractor that brought us into the next level and will serve us well for years to come . Their equipment is top notch and they are always advancing their technology. I used to buy everything from MannLake but Hillco is superior in our opinion ! Enjoy your videos too !

@billybobjones4317 3 месяца назад

My two cents is to modify a 20 to 30 litre bucket with a nozzle attached to the bottom, the size that the Hose would fit snuggly over and then a zip tie to keep it firmly in place and sit the bucket on a stand or make a frame attached to you wall frame that can hold a full 20 to 30 litre bucket and then gravity feed the Honey, no suction required to prime. Not sure why people always do things the hard way, gravity is free and saves so much wear and tear on pumps, you could even splurge out and buy a nozzle with a valve that would allow you to open and close the feed. The advantage of working with plastic is that you can build your own devices, either plastic weld or food grade Silicone.

@robertjackson4130 7 месяцев назад

I just watched your excellent video and I observed that you had your honey pail up on your work bench. I would imagine that a pail of honey is quit heavy. You could put the pail down on the floor as your pump is a suction pump and will draw the honey up your hose.Keep up the good work.

@devonmcgonigal9888 Год назад

You might think about plumbing your hose from the top of the bucket to the side at the bottom might help with your priming, Then you can just Poor another bucket Into it. Then you can put a screen or something on the Small lid that you have the hose in To help the suction ventilation and keep bugs and other debris out.

For beginners, be sure you are going to have a honey crop before buying expensive equipment. IOW, it is common to lose a large proportion, or all, of your hives each year due to various causes. This is one of the reasons why honey is so expensive.

@TheHoneystead Год назад

Oh absolutely!!! I’ve waited years for this type of purchase and definitely saved up!

@CRRBennett Год назад

that's why having an bee club or mentors can bee helpful. The downside to not having minimal equipment if you do have hives to harvest is not being able to actually harvest anything. For years we harvested with my mentor. we moved and recently bought a small hand crank extractor. It worked well for us since we had minimal amount to harvest. Nice honey harvest! Love the quick fill machine!

I think the simpleness plus bonuses for both harvesting methods have great things like low waste..efficiency in quantam things also…I think when done as I plan also less bee deaths….which I always like to 🐝 my 🐝 way to 🐝

@conradriffle8262 Год назад

There are great deals out there but it takes time to find then. My helper Roger which is a retires Sheriff found a nicer way to remove wax off the honey frams. I'm hoping you already know not to shorten the depth of then comb on your honey frams. The deeper the waxframe the better. if its deeper than normal the queen can not lay eggs in the honey frames, so this new method help keep the wax deep. Drop the knife and use your scratching fork, slid the fork under the wax and push it under the wax about 2 inches and lift the fork and wax upward toward you, then keep doing it till no more wax capings remain on the frame.
