This is a Game Changer for bottling HONEY!!!!

Hahah I was looking back at this video and realized that I said “Radical” but I meant to say “Radial” 🤦🏽‍♀️ I mean… it is Radical 😎 but I meant Radial!

You talk about blessings, indicating a belief in God. If you believe in God, you need to dress modestly. I really want to watch your video, but your cleavage is a distraction leading me to lust. I am fighting lust, so I can't watch your video.

I really didn’t notice it. I was just enjoying the flow of the honey the new machine. It was pretty awesome. Awesome job awesome information. Thank you very much for taking your time and sharing with us.

The shine in your eyes when you started talking about your book is true joy. Congratulations.

[@TechOutAdam]

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.

[@TheHoneystead]

🙌🙌🙌

[@Wolfe_Metals_Stacking]

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.

When you talking about your girls and honey.. You just blossom like liquid gold. I feel every word your saying and the passion you have. ❤

[@MichaelofYurtBees]

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.

[@MouthyMa]

I cannot say enough how inspiring you are. Cannot WAIT for your book!!!!

[@thenodiggardener]

These are the types of videos I look for when thinking of buying products that I suspect are not going to be as simple as they may first appear. I'm 51, and learned that that lesson before, so I'm sure others will be grateful that you're putting this content on here.

As someone who has dealt with dosing systems for many, many years: I am super impressed how incredibly well you did with almost no instructions and a video you had to dig up. EXCELLENT JOB!!!!!!!!!

[@Hawkins_Family]

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!

[@TheHoneystead]

Ohh no!!! I’m so sorry to hear that!!! And heck yeah.. that’s a great harvest!

[@scottmurphy283]

900!! How many hives do you manage? I'm looking to go up to 6-8 next year from 3

[@cindys.w.8566]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY and congratulates on the new book coming out soon... I've watched many of the videos you share these last few months and just want to say YOU ARE A LOVELY PERSON. Such a great attitude, funny, entertaining, smart and easy to understand. Your spirit is amazing!

[@usmcPath]

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.

[@maggiewatte7911]

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,

[@vickijones3440]

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.

[@johnmorpheus120]

I super enjoyed this informational video. Thank you for all your work and for the bees for doing their thing. I’d love to buy some when I find the link as I appreciate the effort and professionalism that I see goes into every jar.

[@pankonen]

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!

[@heidistoddard1588]

Thank you for the content and information. As a new beekeeper, I can see after your description, that I will be getting one of these honey-filing machines. Thx. :)

[@breckdemers]

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.

[@andyjones6361]

CONGRATULATIONS on your contract an tell your Girls CONGRATULATIONS on what a GREAT job they did this season. I had some supers my girls did not finish capping off when the flow stopped. In my Bee Barn I have a small hot room an a dehumidifier with fans that I can dry my honey on down to where I want the moisture to be which my girls are great like yours they have worked there little stingers to the bone 🤷‍♂️to make us a great product. I am glad you showed your bottler because I have been wanting one myself. I hope you have had the best season of all . THANKS

[@royschrader8003]

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]

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.

[@randyrejer4219]

I recently started consuming bee pollen on peanut butter toast in morning. What a great energy booster. Packed with different vitamins.

[@bjrningebrserud4518]

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😃👍🏻

I have had a Lyson 30 frame extractor for 5 years, great machine, can’t fault it.

Oh my GOODNESS, I CAN NOT WAIT TO GET YOUR BOOK❤🐝🌿😁

[@SusanWBeauty]

How many hives do you have? Thanks

[@caydancebloom]

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.

[@colinvoss8484]

Mann lake is very good and no need reverse frames with radial extractor top to the outside.

[@honeymcdonald9120]

Hi amin

[@diannemiller4754]

Happy Birthday 🎉 nice honey harvest 😊

[@KimoPollock]

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.

[@577bluegrass]

Thank you ,I like that bottler machine ! Great moisture level. ! Enjoy your content have a great day.

[@Blackswan19874]

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 !

[@jamesbsa6450]

Not to mention they sell this same speed filler for half the price of ML's. I got mine at NAHBE for $650 show special!

[@Chris-yo4ks]

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.

[@glennsnaturalhoney4571]

You can place a pice of plywood or similar between bucket layers to evenly distribute the weight and prevent collapse issue.

[@ApiaryManager]

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.

[@Aussiehomestead1965]

We stack our honey and produce buckets on top of each other but we made 1/2 inch plywood discs Just slightly larger than the lid size that go between the buckets. You can then stack 3 high to save space.

[@FiremanFrach]

You might be able to stack them with squares of 1/4" plywood in between for stability. It might free up some space.

[@robertjackson4130]

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.

[@hatedcritic8066]

I have a similar honey extractor. I swap frames around to give different sides a chance to drain. Also, I found that the extractor had not been cleaned up after manufacture, meaning that I caught my fingers on sharp steel splinters a few times.

[@firstquarterfarms]

I love the way you described honey making 😅❤ little chefs 🥰

[@beesintheweeds]

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!

[@18Yoav]

I bought the same one last year and I agree complete game changer

[@Kelly_Mae_C]

I'm looking forward to your book. I hope it comes out soon.

[@rootsnurserycapecod4564]

Do you sell, honey in bulk by any chance? I love your videos ! I love watching you and your mother and your grandmother! You all are very knowledgeable I really do enjoy watching you guys! And I do laugh with you❤

[@devonmcgonigal9888]

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.

[@dougrogillio2223]

A pallet rack with proper shelving would support the weight & allow you to slide the buckets in/out with ease.

[@antoniosanford4675]

I would love to see you get a 3d printer, even just a little one. You could design with tinkercad and make any part you need for your machines

[@TheHoneystead]

That would be fun!!!

[@robertstwalley3662]

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.

[@conradriffle8262]

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.

Do you heat your honey at all to package it? I have a similar packaging pump, and it keeps tripping its overload. My honey was around 70°.

[@Hawkins_Family]

I might be purchasing this in a week or so but I’m wondering how hard it is to clean. Let’s say you start bottling today and then something comes up and you can’t get back to it until several days later, how much of a headache is it to clean and then re prime it again? Just thinking out loud here. Would a heated bottling tank be better? I’m tossing the two back and forth in my head trying to decide which I should get.
