- Hi Everyone. Sadly it seems our main summer nectar flow is over but ... we have some honey and it also seems a way better year than last year so far!
heres the first look at my new Carl Fritz 300 litre creaming machine.
Just to add the heater is 1,000 watt not 3,000, my apologies!
Heres the link. to the machine: www.carl-fritz.de/honey-proce... - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
Nice selection on glass jars! 👌🏻 much better and more high end than plastic.
The kilo is a lot more popular than people think. Good idea to offer that too.
Thats brilliant with them Chestnuts agree about how fast they grow. Also them small cast swarms people often discard them but they can become the most prolific colonies in the 2nd season. I had a cricket ball size swarm and its already almost caught up with the bigger swarms abd Queen is just laying through the roof. Pretty sure cast swarms queens go on more mating flights then bigger swarm queens, So many more drones around aswell when the cast swarms start
Looking good
Sirdo, I want some honey, I want some honey, I want some honey ppppleaseeee 😋😋😋.
If you didn't have something none beekeeping related you won't have fun beekeeping 🫡.
Stay safe and healthy to do beekeeping tomorrow and reduce your lifting to have less back pain later in life trust me I know 😐👋.
It’s crazy how that creamer works, it looks just like caramel. I bet it would be delicious on ice cream.
In reference to the Apivar. It drives me crazy when prices for products are vastly different for a product depending on your country. I can understand a bit more for shipping but we pay double the price you stated wholesale (Canada).
I have seen labels with tick boxes for size/weight and honey season or type.
Love the creamer that’s my 2024 purchase for sure! Look after that back with all those heavy supers you will be pulling!
Had several drone laying queens this spring... due to poor weather during mating flight time so they never got mated or were very, very poorly mated and by the time you realize they are not laying worker brood... what a mess to clean up and have to melt down all my freshly drawn comb. Keep on Spinning!
Been building numbers this season lots of splits give them strip of apivar when they are still small is very effective for me..
The fun of an office chair and a blower been there good fun 😅
my labels i have the same one for both my sizes, with a blank spot to write the weight on it. reduces the number of types of labels i need as they are interchangable. for the varieties, i do have different round labels to go on the lids, but for my area i only have 2 types, spring and fall, so thats easy!
You really need to make t-shirts that say “Fanny’s your Aunt, Bob’s your Uncle”….CLASSIC!!! 😂. I love when you say that! I laugh every time 😂
Working on it!
Love that creamer! I did my extraction yeasterday. Botteling today. I got some "cement" honey... no rapeseeed at all. As you say, it's more or less over for this year. Golden Rod, might give some more.
I envy your focus and will to make your dream come true!
Our basswood/lime coming in hard today can't move frame with nectar raining everywhere.. it's lasted longer with all the rain delayed it .. normally 10 days going on 14 today.. chestnut in full bloom and the sweet clover as well
Good job I’d love to see your honey shipped to the USA just saying maybe with a bit of the two other keepers as well
Finally you’ve got your creamer
Loved your blower trick I must say
I think a separate sticker for each type of honey would get attestation , maybe metallic red . It makes people think it's something special if you use a separate label with they type on it.
Hello Richard I have been doing creamed honey for quite a while now an most of the time I have always used my spring honey but this year I tried a darker honey because most of the people who purchase my honey loves my dark honey an they love the flavor of my dark creamed honey. Well I just thought I would try it an it is going like hot cakes . I have always used seed honey an it works very well an I think it takes a little less time to make that way . I really hope your creamer works well for you it looks great . THANKS
Any chance of a close up of the drone layers cells you said you can see the difference. Please
10% of creamed honey from previous batches, added to the pot is how we do it, the addition of crystals of any kind worries me. We try to keep as close as we are able to a clean organic product. Keep smiling.
what if you made a shorter stand for the creamer machine.
Im new at this but can you please tell me why do you only have your boxes 2 high and not higher?
Ha Ha Le Sausage.. lol
Do you have your creamer on a timer to turn on and off 3 times a day?
do u have a store front to sell ur products? If so, what's the name of it. TY
We have the 100 litre version of that. Creamed some honey jarred and labelled it. Week later it separated 😢 any suggestions?
If it is cremed to long so the crystals gers to smal i wil seperate , also the risc for fermentation is huge after seperation , you can melt it and start over then it wil be ok
@jacobroth9185
Thank you some people where saying I didn't let it set at a low enough temp 14°c or below. I'll melt it in a cabinet and start again 🤦
