3 Frame Manual Honey Extractor Stainless Steel – Tangential Honey Spinner

Why use a 3 frame honey extractor?

• Bees take about 8x nectar to build 1x beeswax comb
• When there’s a nectar flow (bees foraging on strong flower bloom) they need space to store it
• By crushing the comb to extract honey, your bees take 3 weeks to rebuild that frame
• By using a honey spinner your bees can refill an entire super chamber within 7-10 days!
• It’s the equivalent of getting 2x honey production over 3-weeks by extracting with a spinner versus crushing comb

The unit is rather wide and based on the centrifugal design using tangential force out to the edge.

The unit takes 3 frames of either brood or super frame sizes.

These units are available via courier. They can be collected in Centurion @ Bee WARE Retail or a courier will be required at additional cost to the customer. Our experience is that this unit carries a courier fee of about R350 estimated using freight services.

Please enquire regarding this service or use your own by arrangement.

The unit includes legs as well to be raised off the floor.

🍯 Why a Honey Extractor Is So Important

Many new beekeepers start by crushing comb to collect honey.

While this works, it creates several problems:
❌ Destroys drawn comb
❌ Wastes bee resources
❌ Slows future honey production
❌ Creates messy honey processing

A honey extractor solves these problems by removing honey while allowing bees to reuse the comb afterward.

This saves bees huge amounts of energy because they do not need to rebuild comb from scratch after every harvest.

The result:
✔ Faster colony recovery
✔ Better honey production
✔ Cleaner extraction
✔ More efficient beekeeping

🚨 The Problem This Product Solves

Without a proper honey extractor:

• Honey harvesting becomes messy
• Frames get destroyed
• Honey yields are lower
• Processing takes longer
• Bees waste energy rebuilding comb

Many beginner beekeepers underestimate how valuable reusable drawn comb becomes over time.

This 3 frame honey extractor helps preserve your comb while dramatically improving honey harvesting efficiency.

🍯 How the Tangential Extractor Works

This extractor uses a tangential spinning system.

After uncapping your honey frames:

1. Frames are placed into the basket
2. The manual handle spins the frames
3. Centrifugal force pulls honey from the comb
4. Honey collects inside the drum
5. Honey drains out through the honey gate tap

This creates a much cleaner and more efficient extraction process compared to crush-and-strain methods.
