  • Hey all,
    In this video, I finally was able to use my HillCo Speed FIll machine. I go over the setup, programming, and first run using the machine. Let me know your thoughts. This truly is a game changer of a machine to add to any operation.
    Disclaimer: I was not paid for this review. I truly feel this is an amazing machine. Also, the honey was warmed slightly using a Bee Blanket bucket warmer.

    Nice Video Brian. I was even able to scan the QR Code from the video when you showed the manual and go to that video.
    I am not quite up to needing this, but I will keep it in mind. Last year I only pulled 80 lbs of honey and this year I am planning on splitting aggressively so probably won't get too much honey. I did start working with a friend who has a lot more hives than I do, so maybe he will want one.

    • @CastleHives
      @CastleHives  2 месяца назад

      Rodney, if you get to the point where you harvest 500+ pounds a year, it is a game changer. I spent probably 14 hours bottling honey last year, it got old. I figured the time this will save me is worth the price.

    Brian I like to set up I have the bottling tanks but I'm thinking about getting the machine to bottle it with I was just wondering how hard is it to clean

    • @CastleHives
      @CastleHives  Месяц назад

      This machine took me like 4 or 5 mins to clean. I took the hoses off, ran hot water through. The gears and pump area I poured hot water through it, cleaned out fine.

  • @ThatBeeMan
    @ThatBeeMan 2 месяца назад

    Does the honey need to be heated in order to work properly? Can this system pump freshly creamed honey before it's set?

    • @CastleHives
      @CastleHives  2 месяца назад +1

      It does not have to be heated to run, it just runs slower. For cremaed honey, Bryan at Flower Street is testing that so he'd know.
