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

[@beefarmerjake]

Guys listen. There have been a few extremely inappropriate comments about my guys in this video. I will not tolerate any of it. You will be blocked from the channel.

[@Fun-di5vm]

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. 🤷‍♂️

[@RH-cv1rg]

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.

[@sharilynnwebb]

My husband works with Spanish guys and he treats then like he treats everyone. I respect all you guys for working so hard.

[@WilliamTheBot]

People are people. Man this comment alone sets you apart from other KZbinrs. You gained a subscriber

[@Tylnorton]

I love a good boss when I see one. Standing up and defending your employees goes a long way.

[@bigmanlilcoat]

Its interesting how beehives are managed and used in different countries. In Romania beehives were on large trucks and moved around the fields. Very few if any pesticides used.

[@robertshorthill6836]

Back in the mid 80s, I had as many as 14 colonies. My wife and I did the extracting. It took us over a month and clean up the sticky mess. We were always on the lookout for holes in the small honey house to keep bees out. It was still a big job. Nice operation here.

[@beefarmerjake]

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! 😂

[@drxyz710]

How many colonies you have

[@KidGarden100]

damn thats one of the biggest operations iv ever seen well done impressive

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!

[@GrammyMidwife]

Amazing to watch the commercial process!

[@beefarmerjake]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@nynotetis]

Great operation, Jake, looks just perfect 👍

[@beefarmerjake]

Thanks 👍

[@gwenyngruffydd]

Great video! Just discovered your channel!! You have a new subscriber from Wales in the U.K.! 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

[@beefarmerjake]

Welcome!! Thank you!

[@abbycolleen920]

Great video! Watching how y’all make and process honey never gets old!!!

[@ironcladlogisticsllc5441]

Curious on where you’d buy machinery like this. It basically makes you the Henry Ford of beekeeping. Nice set up!

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you! Its from a company called Cowen Manufacturing!

[@walterhiegel3020]

That is a really sweet extraction line!

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!

[@theliltwirp]

Literally and figuratively ! 😏😁😋🍯

[@jaibusby673]

that looks serious, so as a bee keeper thank your workers as a bee keeper

[@andreimolodoi88]

Great content Jake! You have a subscription from Moldova. Would like to see more of stuff like this. Thank you!

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!!

[@ShalomShalom-d5c]

You have Ian Steppler's set up but his is hand crank pushing the frames into the big spinner.

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@JeromeBeeFarm]

Wow, that's amazing.

[@russellkoopman3004]

Nice setup. How many frame extractor was that? Bigger than my 8 frame. LOL

[@beefarmerjake]

120 frames!!

[@johnreynolds614]

Love to see people working hard together for a common goal. If only the youth of America would understand the value of work and the piece of mind good clean work provides. Keep up the good work. Let the haters hate.....they just jelly cuz they won't work

[@beefarmerjake]

100%. Thank you for the encouragement!

[@yoongi0821]

That's what you called pure delicious honey great job guys im planning to be a beekeeper to help our farm here in our house

[@beefarmerjake]

Do it!

[@Devonhoneyandcandles]

awesome jake.

[@ScottShields-e6l]

Great video very cool process.

[@Marco10000]

And then there’s me with 3 hives and 60kg of honey this year 😂

[@mrwonk]

That's a lot of honey! Do you sell it all yourself or do you have to wholesale?

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@nohemieco]

Hi Jake, this has been such a great video! I'm trying to build the first fully industrial honey processing farm in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and sort of learning as I go but it has been hard. Could you please provide me: 1. the production plant floor planning 2. how many hectares/space was used for the 100K lbs production? 3. prior to filtering, you didn't use knives for removal, im assuming because your machine is high technology so the filtering is so fast there's no need? Great videos!

[@beefarmerjake]

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.

[@nohemieco]

@@beefarmerjake 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

[@TheMrAndersontv]

@@nohemieco The USA primarily uses acres instead of hectares to measure land area. One hectare is equivalent to approximately 2.47 acres. 🇦🇴

[@safecyber7996]

You cooked the honey bro ? Is that heating machine ?

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@mgntstr]

This guy extracts!

[@christofboehm1638]

6:27 is it just the honey from the decapping device or both the decapping and the fuge ?

[@beefarmerjake]

All of it

[@sasso551]

Great works!! Beautiful 👌👌👌🐝🐝

[@beefarmerjake]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@baciubogdan1612]

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!!

[@badbeeben9179]

Hallo Jake, was für Königinnen hast Du im Einsatz! Liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz 🇨🇭

[@samthenovice4858]

How many guys do you have on your crew and how many colonies do you run?

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@crdorado1195]

Jake, what state are you in? And are all those 'boxes' your own?

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@rickmonte88]

We need Moore videos!!!

[@beefarmerjake]

Got some good stuff coming soon 😉

[@jovvaninamolata2659]

[@joselara155]

I like you extrating Room. All frames clean perfect 👍🏻

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!

[@RalphDeshon9710]

Wow, I have a few hives I get enough honey from here in Florida. Amazing process.

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@viktoriya6275]

В России у людей по 200 улей

[@DougJohnson-om3uw]

Quick question how often do you have to change or sharpen the knife on the decapper

[@beefarmerjake]

Maybe every 5 years

[@KajunHomestead]

awesome extraction line.

[@beefarmerjake]

Thank you!

[@rodolflinner4201]

We miss ur video

[@suzylarry1]

stay healthy ...eat your honey !

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@ronniebauman28]

What is the #1 mistake you see new bee keepers make when they are first starting out?

[@beefarmerjake]

Not monitoring varroa load for various reasons.

[@azerty2357]

Hello i am a 16 years old teenager and i am interested in this domain i juste want to know how did you manage to get all this material

[@beefarmerjake]

It’s a family business!

[@rtxhoneybees]

Very cool. Thanks Jake for sharing.

[@beefarmerjake]

Thanks for watching!

[@krissaann333]

Wow! This is AMAZING! One day......💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏

[@LordPenny95]

What do you do with all the wax cappings?

[@beefarmerjake]

Render them and use the wax for sale/new frames!

[@dirtbike662]

Ever let bees come in and clean up?

[@beefarmerjake]

Not inside the shop 😳 just empty supers sometimes

[@StanGore-mk8ow]

pretty dang sweet!!

[@beefarmerjake]

Indeed! 🍯

[@jovanvujovic3932]

Vauuuuuu, kod vas baš veselo❤️😀👍

[@mertelnd]

where you mixing water in the honey?

[@daveklein2826]

No

[@beefarmerjake]

No

[@stevesoutdoorworld4340]

Why not just run all deeps?

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@oscargutierrez2285]

Love you video and love honey. From Cape Town all the best amigos

You are free to block people. Anyway, not many people watch your videos.

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@daveklein2826]

More people watch him than watch you

[@alex_goodwin]

You probably need to pay more attention to the production culture. While working with a food product some workers wearing gloves and others not. You regretted $50 on a pack of nitrile gloves? Why are workers in casual clothes? The honeycomb opener looks dirty on the inside. You boast of high production efficiency, but its quality raises many questions. Would I like to buy this honey? Hmmm... 🤔

[@flintliddon]

What a complainer you are

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@mv9239]

He is indian

[@kaistumer198]

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

[@daveklein2826]

Alex you are food safety ignorant..... Get educated moron

[@palma8120]

Just imagine if they were full 200,000 pounds 👍

[@beefarmerjake]

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

[@eliagabrieli]

What's the average pounds per hive?
