This was a unique way we harvested and supply our honey to our customers who like both honey and the comb. This wasn’t our invitation, we just borrowed the idea and it woks well as an option for our honey products.

Although these concepts are generally endorsed by many beekeepers you have to listen, watch, and learn from your bees as well as other resources in the craft of beekeeping.

Me again, the crazy one from across the pond. I do this but surprise surprise I do it differently. I place a wire queen excluder underneath the super that I am going to use for jars. This way I get to place a frame between each row of jars enabling me to get extra honey from the space. And you don't destroy a crown board. BTW the good ideas you have I steal.

He has actually shown the finished product. Most videos I've seen on this only show the idea and never the finished product. I've done comb honey for years and it's my favorite. The cutting and putting in containers is quite a pain. The mason jars are almost the same price as comb containers sold by the suppliers. He did a nice job putting this together

Have severall ross round tops on some hives and a flowhive, so i dont have to lift heavy boxes of honey supers. Also 10 layens 20 frame insulated hives, for extracting for filling these jars, and making mead. Just lift out frames on them too, so trying to make things better for me as i get older.

Hello, I am a person who raises honeybees in Korea. Thankfully, I enjoyed the video. I have a few questions, so I'm asking. You made the honey jar thick with wax, so how thick should I apply No.1? No.2 Is it possible regardless of whether you push or not? No. 3 If you put honey in a honeycomb bottle, doesn't the honeycomb get soft? I appreciated the video.

@BohemiaBees 2 жыл бұрын

The wax on the bottom isn’t necessary. We thought we needed to put wax for the bees to attach comb to but they attached it without using it. So we won’t use it again this season. I’m sure that the comb once flooded with honey will become slightly softer so that’s up to you if you fill after or just leave unfilled. We are doing both this year.
