Please answer me some questions: Is that a serrated knife you're using? Do you keep the knife heated in a bowl of hot water? Would you rather use an electric heated one? What kind of extractor is that and do you like it, if not what would you recommend? I'm new to this and I will be purchasing a set up in a few months and I would really appreciate it if you could give me some advice about your equipment set up.
so does your honey stay golden and runny once in a storage container? I have bought honey from a beekeeper and it was thick and white? does it just harden over time? or is that an other process? Thanks for all the usefull info!
@Naturally00Me - Yes, mine stays "golden & runny" because I use very fine filters (2). The texture "thick & white" is caused (typically) by very small bits of wax which could have been filtered during the extraction process. Also - The Spring harvest is a much lighter color than the Fall harvest because of the available nectar sources.
good video im a teen going to try beekeeping next year looks like healthy fun, cant believe u could afford that 4 frame extractor going to build my own ty
Well I just made a constructed critic, you don't have to be an industrial I did not started as an Industrial since I had 3 colonies I always focus in quality, clean honey and it did not cost me more than having a clean all around place extract honey in the indoors, have a covered shoes, and wearing a net in my head how much more would that cost so I did not wanted to offend no one it was just a comment by the way I liked the video just a suggestion.
I'd buy this woman's honey in a NY minute before buying some commercial high fructose corn syrup garbage. If your concerned about a hair net or the "dirt" you need to get out of the urban jungle more then once a year.
Tip: heat the knife. you can have it sitting in a electric frying pan with water to keep it hot. wipe it off before using so you don't get water in the honey. This will make things 1000% easier!
Well you really explain everything in a nice way..... but shouldnt you be a little more cleaner starting by the place your working....not to be in the open and your aprearience closed shoes, covered hair..... etc..... I know honey is clean by nature but still it is a food
where is your honey that you grew and extracted yourself in the clean environment your complaining about her not having in this video? just because you saw a video of industry making honey doesn't mean this ritous old lady has to follow industrial complex rules! she has her own farm!
please remember that industrial VS homemade will be extrememly different in environment and product!
Thank you for this video upload

The valve on your extractor is 180 degrees inverted. You need to rotate it 1/2 turn.
