8-Frame Electric Honey Extractor
The 8-frame electric honey extractor is quite a machine. It is for the next level hobby beekeeper that makes the leap from hobby to side business with your beekeeping!
This honey spinner is reversible, which means it doesn’t need the frames to be lifted up and turned around between harvesting each side. Some extractors, but not this one, only spin one-way. What this leads to is the extractor having to be brought to a halt and all of the frames being lifted turned around and then put back into the extractor to empty the other side.
This extractor, like many of our others, makes use of reversible technology so that all that you, as the beekeeper, need to do is bring the centrifuge spinner to a stop and then just switch the setting on the controller to swing the other direction. Why is this important to do?
Firstly, when harvesting and spinning raw honey one has to empty the frames equally on both sides in proportions. Let me explain, you fill the extractor with honey frames and they are full on both sides. Heavily laden. If you spin one side to empty then the frame comb will break under the stress of the weight of the other side. In order to avoid this, you have to allow for only 25% – 30% of the honey on one side to be extracted before stopping and repeating the same on another side!
Secondly, it saves you time not having to remove, turn around the place back inside the extractor all of the frames. Remember, too heavy on one side, and the comb breaks.
Thirdly, the process to fully remove and extract as much honey from the comb as possible requires about three sets of this process. When using a reversible honey extractor, this process doesn’t need to be done by you. It doesn’t take twice as long to harvest honey using an extractor that does not reverse.
Lastly, the 8-frame electric controller is programmable. Meaning it can be set up to run a preset command sequence. Awesome right?!
