Description: studiobeeproductions.com I have finally gotten the job of harvesting our honey completely finished. As you have seen through the postings I have made over the last several weeks, there is a lot more to harvesting honey than simply spinning honey from frames. On this adventure I do the final step, separating the wax from the honey that was stored in our drums. To assist in this matter, I employ my honey/wax separator....along with my drum lift, and at the end of the day, I wound up with over 30 gallons of honey and a large garbage can full of dry cappings. Of course, with the cappings and honey separated, there still is the process of bottling the honey as well as rendering the cappings for our next season, but that's 2 more videos yet to bee made. Thanks for watching. God's peace to all. Mr. Ed
