Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge! I would be interested to know how you clear the bees from the honey supers when removing for honey processing.
سلام باب،ممنونم از اشتراک این ویدیو من دو سوال داشتم ،اول اینکه خواص عسل چقدر کمتر میشه و دوم اینکه در این دمای ۹۰ درجه به مدت ۳ روز ،موم ذوب نمیشه،آخه موم حدود 63درجه ذوب میشه ،سپاس از محتوای خوبت🎉🎉
It depends on how much you value your time and how much honey you have to extract. It definitely saves a lot of time. One man can extract 150 supers in a day which can free you up to do other things. You wouldn't need all the air ram additions. The basic model works fine.
Does the wax separator make the honey clean enough to bottle or do you run your honey through another filter before bottling? What type of filter system do you use? Thanks
The honey from the wax separator still has a little debris in it but a few days in a settling tank makes the honey good enough to bottle in my view. Some might like to see it clearer. When bottling we actually move the honey through an 800 or 600 micron filter just ahead of the bottling machine. When selling bulk we just fill from the settling tank and its fairly clean. Our filters can be seen in our video "Bottling Honey With a Dadant Fillmaster and a Chadam Filler". ruclips.net/video/Npa3gjpH8ig/видео.html
عمل مميز ورائع مع استخدام الماكنات الكهربائية مما يقدم منتوج بجودة عالية في زمن قصير ،حظ موفق صديقي. كيف يمكن الحصول على هذه الماكنات وتصديرها للجزائر ؟؟
Bob, Do you have any magic chemical you use that cleans wax deposits off of machines, etc? I have some build up on my uncapping machine especially that I want to clean off!
Just take the camera with you and do all the video work during off season, also would be great to see a compilation off your season. Add the talking later on the computer
Hi Jerry. Bee work is beginning to slow down for the season (we are so ready) and I have a few ideas for more videos. I hope to do some soon. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks for your question. At 7:20 you can see that the temperature in the warming tube is 84 degrees F which is 10 degrees cooler than bees keep their hive. Also, in this system we don't have a filter, only the wax float spinner which removes bulk wax cappings and debris from the honey.
Hello we are reconfiguring our extraction plant and were thinking of using a gear pump after the wax separator like you have. Are you able to tell me what port sizes the pump you use is, and what flow it is rated at please?
Hi Martin. It is a one inch brass gear pump with a 3/4 horse motor. I can't tell you the exact flow rate but I can tell you it runs about half the time when we are extracting. On a good day we do about fifteen drums.
We've never make an effort to remove pollen. We do let the bees rob out and clean up our supers before storage. Maybe that's why we have never noticed a problem. Might not be the answer you needed.
Hi Bob, thanks for the reply. I do always let the bees have the wet supers back. Whether that be on the hive if there are more flows to come before winter or in the form of open feeding. They do a fantastic job of cleaning out the honey, but the solid cells of pollen are always left behind 😢
I think even the bees would appreciate all that process! Do you than sell your honey in bulk to a distributor? Also were the honey supers mediums? Enjoying your videos! Thanks
Hi Matthew. Most of our honey is bottled and sold wholesale by the case to many outlets. We also sell some in our retail store and a bit in bulk. Yes those were mediums.
Hi bob, i have been following your videos for a while now and am very impressed wit the kind of knowledge u are sharing, we do a very different kind of beekeeping here, i wanted to inquire what are the basic standards that u follow interms of the SS used, are those the basic requirement for FDA or are u going above and beyond
Above and beyond. There is both 304 food grade stainless and 316 food grade stainless. 316 is considered better for acidic foods which honey is at an average of around 3.9 PH. Some of our threaded fittings are 304 because we couldn't find what we wanted but our tanks, manifolds and most of our fittings are 316.
@@bobbinnie9872 thanks alot for the reply sir, I am also considering settings up a plant in my country and was impressed by the vaccum system u showed, I have been able to find a supplier for the same and going to buy it, I have one more question, What is the importance is maintaining the temperature after processing in the storage tanks, how much difference in the quantity is there when u fill jars at different temperatures, is it only maintained at that temperature to avoid crystalization.
Hi Bob! I'm so glad you made this informational video! Someone recently asked about parallel radial extractors and how they work, which led me on a quick search annnd here I am sipping coffee and watching your process. It's a joy to see how the big operations go. 04:49 bingo! Why is this not more standard in all commercial honey operations? You must have an excellent jack-of-all-trades around there to perform equipment maintenance and repair. Wishing you all the best in 2021!!!
Awesome video! Maybe the next time I'm up in Waynesville and come to Georgia yall will be doing this and watch thru the glass or maybe you'll let me help. Lol. Thanks for sharing Bob!

I'm an operator of a similar plant, extracting Manuka honey. Based in New Zealand. Great video
From Marengo, WI. Thanks for sharing your video's as I watch them all...
Hi Charlie. Thanks for your comment. You have a lot of videos.
On the first few days of the job, how high is the temptation to be constantly licking your fingers?
Very high.
Wonderful Bob you really inspire me , my dream is this too many thanks from Africa.
Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge! I would be interested to know how you clear the bees from the honey supers when removing for honey processing.
Check out our video "How We Remove Bees From Honey Supers". ruclips.net/video/6ldD3cNGung/видео.html
How do you clean out all of the plumbing / hoses after extraction? Thanks for the video.
Very hot water.
Very nice. We bought what was basically, the same system in 1988. Very efficient.
Thanks, we have really enjoyed it.
Mind blown. Im just a little guy in western canada. I need to find a commercial bee company to get a look at their production. Wicked

Hi bob could you inform how much it cost this extractor machine from deboxing to pumping to barrel
I bought it over twenty years ago and I'm not familiar with the current price.
Top notch equipment. Would purchasing this type of equipment be cost effective for a 340+ hive apiary?
It depends on how much you value your time and how much honey you have to extract. It definitely saves a lot of time. One man can extract 150 supers in a day which can free you up to do other things. You wouldn't need all the air ram additions. The basic model works fine.

We just use very hot water and a good nozzle on our water hose. It doesn't get 100% but it's close and is good enough for us.
that was super amazing . we always try to copy the west but in terms of knowledge we are quite far away. west is all about progress.
can the cowen system take deep frames or only medium?
All sizes.
@@bobbinnie9872 thank you
Thanks Bob for video. Do you run 10 frames in all your supers?
Hi Robert. We run ten frames to draw out comb and then install eight frame spacers.
Just take the camera with you and do all the video work during off season, also would be great to see a compilation off your season. Add the talking later on the computer
Good ideas
As always great information Bob. I know your busy with your bees but more videos would be wonderful.
Hi Jerry. Bee work is beginning to slow down for the season (we are so ready) and I have a few ideas for more videos. I hope to do some soon. Thanks for the comment.
awesome 1 man machines,,all systematic
Hello from Chicago! Little late on this video but where are you guy's located? This is fascinating!
Hello Windy City. We're in the northeast corner of Georgia. Many of our colonies are over the border in North Carolina.
where do the bees go during the extraction.
Hi Keith. Before the boxes are brought in from the bee yard the bees are removed and stay with the hive.
Do you use queen excluders between brood boxes and honey supers?
I do when it's a single story brood chamber. If it is a double I do not and of course we do get some brood in the supers when we do this.
with all of these machines that processing honey with heating process and microfiltration, the honey quality is not raw?
Thanks for your question. At 7:20 you can see that the temperature in the warming tube is 84 degrees F which is 10 degrees cooler than bees keep their hive. Also, in this system we don't have a filter, only the wax float spinner which removes bulk wax cappings and debris from the honey.
20-30% humidity in the super drying room?
That's what we shoot for.
🤙ماشاء الله تبارك الله عمل رهيب
Nice

What do you do about the cells of pollen? I’ve found they go mouldy if left and ruin my wax.
We've never make an effort to remove pollen. We do let the bees rob out and clean up our supers before storage. Maybe that's why we have never noticed a problem. Might not be the answer you needed.

You can't store wet supers. Let bees clean them out then put em up. It takes a day maybe two.
what antibiotics do you use when breeding your bees?
I'm currently not using any.
This was great to watch. we are hobby beekeepers in NY
We enjoy doing it too. Thanks for your comment.
Does the honey extractor extract the whole honey from frames
Very close to all the honey. Only a small residue is left.

Didn’t know what to expect, wow.
WOW !
The machine of my dreams 😭. I could never afford that though
Hi Cindy Lou. I once thought that also.
@@bobbinnie9872 never say never right! 😊
@@sweetcindyshoney7301 Right.
Looks like a sticky situation

Careful what you ask for.
This is how it supposed to be only one operator
please share more apiary video,
Thanks for your suggestion
@@bobbinnie9872 I like hive management and hive operation, operation.
How do you guys remove bees from the super?
We use triangle escape boards.
I was raw honey not I want the bugs
