With all our honey frames run through the extraction process, the next step is to separate the wax from the honey, and to do this, I use our honey/wax separator. The drums are full of honey, and on top of the honey is all the wax cappings that were removed during the processing. I simply skim the layer of wax, in some cases it was over 7 inches thick, and shovel it into our honey/wax separator machine. As the machine spins around, the honey is pushed through the wax lining the drum and separates out. With the honey removed from the wax, it is then stored inside garbage cans ready to be rendered. A very interesting process, and I hope you will enjoy watching it. Until the next time, God's peace to all. Mr. Ed
I remember helping my grandpa with this when I was a kid. He had about 12 hives out in the orchard, and it took us quite a while to get through all the frames, and things could get far messier than what you've shown, but I have fond memories of those times.
Great story, thanks for sharing it. Beekeeping is such a great memory maker because of all the fun it is. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Beekeeping is often considered an "old man hobby", but I really find it fascinating already. As a gardener, it has so many advantages - besides the honey. The bees polinate your trees and plants, keep away some of the pests and you also get wax, which is an awesome material. The work is also very relaxing.
The world needs as many beekeepers as it can get, happy to hear you are one of them. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them.

i have abot 75lb this yr from 2 hives and hi mr. ed god bless you all
Awesome to hear from you Terry. Thank you for your blessings and for watching. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
I still enjoy watching you process honey. Thank you so much for sharing these videos with us!!
So happy to hear from you Stephonie, I hope all is well with your and yours. God's peace.

Hi Jeff.
Isn't it amazing how much an insect can produce with utter cooperation. This year in England, despite 2 heat-waves, I have harvested 60 Kg of Summer honey from my 6 hives, which I think is pretty good going. Thanks again for your inspiration.
Watching this from another part of the world, specifically from Romania! I'm enjoying your videos so much, you do a fantastic job explaining and presenting how you work with your bees and everything around beekeeping! Thanks for doing this Mr. Edd, keep on doing!!! 🙂I wish you the best!
Nice! What part?

Mr. Ed
Guess you could say , "That is Spun Honey ! "
Aloha Jeff,
When Mark's Bee Haven was up and running, Kiawe [Mesquite] Honey was our all year long and always sold out honey. It came it at 1200 pounds every two weeks from the 20 hives I had in the Kiawe Honey Forest of South Kohala. Being a 'fast crystallizing honey' the Kiawe needed to be extracted the same morning /afternoon it was taken from the bees or it would thicken and not extract very well from the frames. Once each super was extracted, it now had to sit and cool and each super yielded a 5gallon bucket full or 60 pounds of honey. After 3 days, the honey was now 'rock hard and stable, but needed to be crushed [our market share was for Raw, Local, Natural Honeys so our honeys, all 24 types were never 'heated'] and with the now 1200 pounds needing to be bottled, this was done by running it all through a Homogenizer with no heat. This left it Smooth as butter for bottling.
I averaged 12 pounds of beeswax each harvest which was loaded into a Solar Melter to be collected. None of our little honey kitchen was so automated as your nice set up, which begs the answer: How many hives do you have? We only had a total of 220 hives across 40,000 acres covering 6 climate zones of 'gifted' lands, forests, range, and farms. No one 'pays for pollination in any part of Hawaii.
That’s a lot of honey trapped in those cappings! It’s amazing how much honey and wax those little bees are able to make!
you are a busy bee

Brilliant and educational , I find your beekeeping work fascinating. Loved the squelchy noises the wax made then you first started to remove it. Thanks Mr. Ed for sharing this part of your work. God bless
I'm pleased to see my contribution of recommending removing the "ninja knives" out of the separator is still working.
I will always listen and apply good ideas. God's peace.

I enjoyed watching you remove that layer of wax. Thankfully it separates and floats to the top. Makes it easier. Nice spinner. Saves a lot of honey. Really enjoyed the video. Thanks and God bless.
Neat video, I'd like to have some of that wax. I thought the comment about Randy's cameras was funny when compared to the cost of the stainless-steel equipment but, I realize you guys have an admiration type friendship going on with friendly ribbing. The volume of honey you are able to put out is impressive!
Love watching the process! Thank you for sharing 🐝
You need a steel scoop like those used for animal feed. The handle is over top of the scooo rather than behind it making it much easier to get leverage. It’s also far more substantial, though not much heavier, than a plastic scoop like you’re using.
I am looking into that very thing, but so far, the only ones I have found are galvanized. I know they have to make stainless steel ones but I have yet to find it. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

@@JeffHorchoff All's well, Jeff. Been very busy and i've been liking you uploads, but not commenting. Thank you for asking. God bless.
If the cappings, scraped from the frames to start with were mixed 50/50 with pure honey you have a lucrative, saleable product - Honey Cappings. The gritty content contains unprocessed pollen. Bottled, a teaspoon a day and hayfever becomes a discomfort no more. Knocks chemical remedies into a cocked hat! JJ - UK

You should get yourself a honey wax purifier thingy like the Canadian beekeeper. You can sell solid lumps of beeswax, or even beeswax candles, make beeswax polish ... just options for diversification..... there are some gorgeous carved wax candles
I'd love to have one of those, but our budget can't bee stretched that large. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

@@JeffHorchoff hope business gets better so you can expand. Wishing you guys the best...
Wow ,you are going to get soooo much wax , great job. I bet that smells awesome.
Excellent! The oscillating fans looked possessed in the fast-forward playback! 🤣
From wax "oatmeal" to wax "cement", that turned into crumbles. 😏
I am watching your video on the TV but I though I would grab the laptop and say hello. It is neat to see your videos now that I have been at the Abby and in the honey house. It makes everything seem so familiar. Take care.
You will always bee welcomed back. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
The lid you got rid of is safety equipment. If someone accidentally put their arm in that the rotating drum would tear it off. I know you're thinking it would never happen to you but safety rules were written in someone else's blood.
I an the only one who runs this machine, if someone else would do the job, the lid would be on it. Thanks for your concern and for watching. God's peace Mike.
Mr. Ed
Wow! I never thought there’d be that much honey in there👍💕😊
You could see the cappings from the side of the barrel... a backlight would probably help that..
It's really easy to see on my 30 gallon drums, they are white. God's peace Leon.
Mr. Ed
Really cool machine, would you mind doing a video of how you render the wax into the blocks Mr Edd? 🙏

Good job Mr. Ed! ✌ from PA!
There was a lot of soft wax still on top of the honey in the buckets, I don't know a lot about beekeeping but 'dirty' honey like that would make for an excellent winter supplement for beehives if their stocks run low ?
Simply by using a sheet of Seran Wrap and placing it over the "soft wax" on the surface, and lifting it, all of it comes off and that's what I give to the bees.

Mr. Ed
Surely it would make better sense to use a tap at the bottom of the tank to remove the honey from the barrel as all the wax has floated to the top, you would then be able to empty the barrel into the extractor as it would contain only the cappings and a little bit of honey
There is a tap at the bottom of the drum, but the time used to transfer the honey into another drum is far greater than removing the cappings right from the top of the drum. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching. Also, I hope you will check out more of my over 450 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
So fascinating! Hope you do a video of melting the wax to make bars. Keep on making more!!!!
Using brand new plastic door screen u can filter everything out way faster all at once. And likely the same with the bee parts from the wax. I did it with my raw 5 gallon pail of honey with no problem
In the past, I have used screen to filter the honey from the wax, but as the operation got bigger and the quantity of honey/wax increased, I needed to find a way I could handle the load easier, and this is the method that I came up with.

Baked cookies indeed!
Too bad you don't have any Flow Hive extractors instead--could be great fun to have Tourists--for a small fee--be able to do mini extractions over the season--then the bees would do all the wax processing for you!!
Mr. Ed, I do love all your videos, you've got so much enthusiasm for your wonderful bees!
How much did your extractor cost you?
I love bees too, so much that I bought a Flow Hive and gave it to an Apiary here near Ottawa Canada so that I could have the "extracting" experience too.
So I imagine that there would be visitors and tourists, who'd love to have that experience too.
I plant all organic flowers to attract any pollinators

I did have a Flow Hive years ago, but because our operation is set up to process a lot of frames of honey, a Flow Hive is not the best fit for me.Thanks for watching. God's peace.

I really enjoy your videos. I have learned a lot. Can you show where it is sold? Have you thought of having the shop that makes sweets making honey hard candy? Wirh all the different types of honey you process it would be a real treat and soothes the throat during the cold months.
Our honey is only sold in the Abbey Gift Shop and not on line. However, if you'd like to buy some of our Abbey Honey, I'd be more than happy to send you some. The cost is $10.00 for a one pound, plastic bottle, and $9.00 for shipping. If you want more than one bottle, the shipping cost is still $9.00 for up to 2 bottles, but each bottle is still $10.00. As soon as I get your check, I will send it out. Make the check out to St. Joseph Abbey but send the letter to:

The honey almost looked like liquid butterscotch coming out of the bottom of the separator.
It is full of air, but when I let it rest for a few days and all the air bubbles rise to the surface, it's a beautiful amber color. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Thanks for all the info and videos you make. I was just wondering if there is any thought to wearing gloves and hairnets?
I never have considered using them as honey is the only natural substance that bacteria will not grow in. Also, any contaminate such as hair will all be filtered out during the refining process.

Had to laugh, honestly looked like you were pulling out scoops of oatmeal.
Blessings brother.
i wonder if those wax cappings would be a good fertilizer
After the cappings are rendered down, the stuff that remains goes into a compost pile helping with the aeration of it. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Wouldn't it have been easier to drain off most of the honey from underneath and then dump the remainder in the wax separator? A chain hoist might be a good idea to ease the load too.
I have a really cool drum lift for that purpose, and I use it, but to lift over 600 pounds that high is a nerve racking event for me, so I just skim the cappings off the top of the honey instead. Thanks for watching and for your suggestion, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them.

Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff You sound like you need some form of swivel rig for that lift so you can tilt a full drum load without too much effort or risk.
the cappings made me think of really wet oatmeal
It looks exactly like that to me too Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
You will get less honey into the separator if you take off most of the cappings before you start skimming off the surface of the honey.
It looks like there was quite a bit of very fine wax (emulsified?) on the surface of the recovered honey. Is it just floating on top of the honey or mixed throughout?
I have tried many different ways to remove the honey from the cappings, but so far, this has been the most efficient way. Fortunately, ALL the fine wax particles and cappings float right to the surface of the honey and once it is removed, all that remains in the drum is pure honey.

Mr. Ed
Jeff, is the next video of you straining that honey you got from the wax? And after that, you processing the wax into big ole cylinders?? Always look forward to your videos!
Actually, the next video will be a removal with the 3 Amigos, but after that, it will be a wax rendering one. God's peace Scott.
Mr. Ed
Another question: how much can the separator hold at one time? I mean, you probably separte batches by the drums they come from, but could you possibly put all the cappings in at once - from all the drums? Or would that overwhelm the separator somehow? That is, would the bottom be too full of honey to actually separate properly?
Thanks for making what - to you - may seem like repetitive videos. I truly enjoy hearing the same information over again, as it's calming and interesting at once.
I'm not really sure just how much the separator could hold, but I have found the less amount I put it, the quicker and drier they cappings drain out. For that reason I only put a smaller quantities at once. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I would assume that more cappings in it would make it take longer to spin out effectively...like when you pack your dryer too full of wet clothes and you have to run it twice to dry them, only to find that they're still damp. LOL
10:10 major ASMR trigger... I didn't even know I was sensitive to that.
