Honey Extractors

As the importance of bees to our environment grows ever more etched on our collective consciousness so do we witness a growth in apiary with many novices and newcomers entering the world of beekeeping, providing not only a valuable resource for their immediate surroundings but also enjoying the fruit of their labours with the valuable products that a healthy beehive produces. And at the heart of every successful bee colony is the hive and here at Buzzbee we stock and supply a comprehensive range of hives and accessories suited for all apiarists, from absolute beginners to those operating commercial, large scale enterprises.

For those beginning their journey into beekeeping or more experienced practitioners that are looking to expand, a bee NUC (Nucleus Colony) is the ideal way to move forward. As an operational colony – albeit considerably smaller than a fully established colony, a NUC contains a laying queen and all the other components of a fully functioning colony – your role as an apiarist is simply to install the NUC and allow it to grow and develop, which inevitably it will.

At Buzzbee we have a great range of appropriate hives ranging from the compact Mini Mating NUC box with 2 frames to the top of the range Paradise Honey 8 frame 4Q NUC and mating hive which can be used for mating multiple queens or can be repurposed as one large colony with one sole queen.

For all your beehive NUCs requirements plus all the essential tools and equipment required for apiary, do not hesitate to contact us here at Buzzbee.

How Honey Extractors & Honey Spinners Work

Technology has constantly enhanced agricultural processes, and it’s the same with honey extraction equipment. Using a honey extractor or honey spinner machine ensures that you can extract honey without causing damage to the complex design of the honeycomb. As a result, you can reinsert the comb into the hive after extraction.

Electric and manual honey extractors both use centrifugal force to shift the honey away from the comb without causing damage. These honey centrifuge machines are available in stainless steel bodies with a clear plastic honey extractor lid so you can observe the process and evaluate the best speed.
An electric honey extractor is far easier to use than a manual one, allowing you to process large amounts of honey fast. This is handy if you’re dealing with multiple hives. Commercial operators will benefit most from an electric honey extractor and honey press that enables them to churn out more product per minute.
When you’ve decided to purchase a honey extractor for sale, you must consider that larger machines require more space and capital but will deliver more honey quicker. An extractor can typically accommodate double the number of hives based on its frames. For example, a two-frame machine can take on four hives, while a four-frame extractor will handle up to eight hives. Calculating your hives can help you determine which honey spinner for sale you should purchase.

How to Extract Honey from Comb Without an Extractor

If you’re wondering how to extract honey from comb without an extractor, it’s possible to use a manual method known as crushing and straining. This process for extracting honey by hand involves breaking up the honeycomb, separating the honey from the wax and straining the honey to remove any impurities. However, using a manual or electric honey extractor is a much faster and more convenient option, especially when extracting honey from multiple hives.
