I can't get enough of these videos. They are educational and more importantly motivational. I am in the process of finishing up harvesting and starting to bulk feed in preparation for winter. This will be my first year overwintering in single broods. Hopefully it works out.
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing this Ian. To you it might be boring but too the public it's fascinating, to other beekeepers it's like, wow, One day!!! You got the music just right!! 😁👍🍾🅰️+ 💯
Just incredible. There was a shifty looking man eating the produce at the beginning, though. Watch him! 😄 Just amazing how the other half live: slightly different to my 12 frame hand crank extractor. 🤣
Mate, Carrie is an absolute machine, she's an all-rounder, and seems to excell at every stage of beekeeping. She is perfect for your operation. How did you even find her? I reckon you are lucky to have such an experienced and devoted beekeeper, and it shows your wisdom as a business owner and beekeeper in general.
Hi Ian, 3rd year Manitoba beekeeper here. You mentioned some honey starting to get solid in some of your frames same thing happened to me. Do you do anything to the frame or the bees fix it next year?
So if you have 1200 hives that's crazy math 9 frame boxes each frame fully drawn comb it's crazy to think how you got to that point alone having that many frames fully drawn comb which begs to ask how long does a frame last you a full drawing comb and are you constantly working at having the Bees draw Newcomb?
Finally we see the honey house nice one , you had plastic liners in the 44 gallon drums before what happen ? And last but not least did you have a good year making honey for you said Trump might stuff things up be interested to know . Thanks for ALL the videos very much enjoy .
Would you save more money by shipping your honey in larger totes rather than 55 gallon drums. Also do you ever sell your honey direct to the public. I would purchase some if you did. Cheers
Honestly curious why the hair net? How come he has one but she does not? Whats the point of wearing a hair net and not something to cover those hairy arms? lol just curious. Anyhow keep up the great videos!
That's a nice setup chum. Good for you. Well done.
Sweet operation you have. Thanks for taking us along this season again.
The little smile from Carrie at 6:00 was sweet. Way to go guys, a fine job you did there all by yourselves. Thanks for posting.
Great look inside your honey house and your extraction operation. Thanks to you two for sharing with us!
Very nice! Love the detailed shots of the process. Without too much talking really makes you think!
Ian what ever you are paying Kerry it could not be enough .. she is a great worker 👍👍👍Thanks for all you have posted this year 👍 loved every one 😍😍
Ian, you are living my dream. You couldn't have a better helper either.

All I can say is "respect". You work like no other.
The more i see of your videos the more i get the feeling that it is time for a career-switch. Lovely content, as always.
SWEET operation, makes my old back hurt just watching, love your vids
Such a treat when we get to see the more artistic videos!
Amazing and thank you for sharing!!! You are first class all the way!!!

Much Respect for y’all!
Incredible and so productive on many levels.

Just amazing! Thanks so much for sharing!
Beautiful work !
Surprised 😯 you don’t have a bigger spinner, with the amount of colonies you’re running

WoW❕🍯
lots of hard focused work 👌🏼
Such a pleasant, clean and well lighted operation area in order to extract that liquid gold.
Great system thanks for showing!
Very nice setup.
The boss himself took part in the battle.😎👍One for two man haha
Noooooo it ended too soon.
I liked the vat being poured off into drums
Man you are living the dream
That’s one sweet product!!! Ian, can you walk through each machine and tell what it does?
The big like for you my friend from Portugal good work end quip going
Question? Have you ever had bees on vetch for a nectar source? And if so was it a decent flow? And is the honey any good?
Hello,
I love these processing !
From which manufactor is the wax press?
Greetings
Ian what type of sealant do you use on your floor?
Maybe you can build some rolling platforms for your drums to make them easier to move. Awesome set up you have there.
I was wondering why do you only run half of the frames through the spining machine ? It looks like the rest just goes strait to and back into boxes...
💪👍👍👍 Very good! How are you this season with the amount of honey?
Nice work 👏
Hi Ian, 3rd year Manitoba beekeeper here. You mentioned some honey starting to get solid in some of your frames same thing happened to me. Do you do anything to the frame or the bees fix it next year?
Do you have a video on how you clean these machines?
Top notch boss.👍👍😎✌
Thank You, well done
"the last bit of honey"
-- man's got like 40 deep supers on a pallet
FREAKING AMAZING WHAT IT TAKES TO GET HONEY
How many hives do you have in total?!
Perfect operation.
Are wax moths an issue at a honey extraction facility like yours?
Wow never seen anything like it!!!
Hey. what line model?
Large-scale honey production is more interesting than I thought.
Nice video Ian. How many gallons of honey those steel barrels hold and what is the weight ? Thks.
markspc1 55 gallon drum by looks of it. Gotta be 600 lbs give or take
whats an average yield per hive?
Very cool, from brazil.
So if you have 1200 hives that's crazy math 9 frame boxes each frame fully drawn comb it's crazy to think how you got to that point alone having that many frames fully drawn comb which begs to ask how long does a frame last you a full drawing comb and are you constantly working at having the Bees draw Newcomb?
So how come he only drained half
what is steam coming out of extractor? VERY nice operation BTW. (I'm a central Texas beekeeper on the other end of the totem pole)
Shower steamer to help pull the dry honey out
Honey, I'm home!
Wow what a job sir.
Sir you dont useful a flow hive .
Sanitizing must be a huge job with all the equipment, piping etc.
After every production day
How many bee hives are you running
Where can I buy your honey?
Does the honey packer clean the drums before they send them back to you? Thanks for Sharing!
JC S
Yes
Hey Ian how are you liking your paradise cappings press? Also, what are the dimensions of that room if you don't mind sharing?
Matt Winstead
Works great !
The extracting room is 35 by 38 I think lol
The building is 80 by 50, the hot room is 45 by 50, the common room is 12 feet
How can I order a honey from your farm
How long does the extractor run and does it reverse itself half way through?
Approx 8 minutes and it only spins the one way
Thanks Carrie
Ian, what's your "wax strategy"? Recycling by yourself or selling further?
Sweet operations you have there :) Love that honey extraction line!
All my wax is sold
Finally we see the honey house nice one , you had plastic liners in the 44 gallon drums before what happen ? And last but not least did you have a good year making honey for you said Trump might stuff things up be interested to know . Thanks for ALL the videos very much enjoy .
Trump hasn’t interferes with honey trade, yet
I'm curious. What's the weight of that barrel when she's full?
Lee Hunter 700
What do you do with the wet frames? As far as winter storage and Wax moth prevention??
Mr C's Honeybees he freezes them for 24 hours in a huge reffer trailer then into cold storage
We use para-D.
Stored wet in a shed and semi trailers, the cold winter kills off wax moth

клёво !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!подари такую медогонку !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)))))))))))
Hello, can I visit your location?
Greetings from Ukraine. Great job. How much honey do you get per day?
Александр Лысенко
18 barrels
Oh yeah!
Всё здорово 👍👍👍 Дай бог вам здоровья и вашим близким
Would you save more money by shipping your honey in larger totes rather than 55 gallon drums. Also do you ever sell your honey direct to the public. I would purchase some if you did. Cheers
How about showing how you clean the facility when you're done extracting for the day? Shows what can be done with the right equipment and building.
wow!!
back in the day eh?
Hero beekeeper
I am gonna estimate the date .... 2 September 2019????? 😀🤠 🤣🤣🤣 thanks for sharing. Great video.
Ian did you get close to 400k lbs??
One Shoo no, dried out on me
2,2010 what is mean ? lol
Super
Do a video on walking honey now
tu peut m'envoyer 3 ou 4 reines merci
I think I pay too little for my honey at the market seeing all the labor that it takes.
So how did Carrie come to be your right hand man .
Honestly curious why the hair net? How come he has one but she does not? Whats the point of wearing a hair net and not something to cover those hairy arms? lol just curious. Anyhow keep up the great videos!
Lol! I am wearing a new black hair net, I think Ian had a white one tucked away somewhere...
