Homemade solar Beeswax melter | Kenyan Top Bar Hive Management
มุมมอง 3.4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
If you don't know what to do with your old brood comb, how about this... Check out my homemade wax melter I made with some scrap timber from my Kenyan top bar hives, a steel tray and a sheet of glass I had lying around. I chuck the brood comb into the wax melter, leave it out in the sun, and it doesn't take long before I get a good amount of beeswax out of it. You can use the wax to wax top bar...

    I build mine out of pallets, it cost me almost nothing to build. I also make them out of 200 litre plastic drums but they need a dowel hanging down in the middle of the bar because they are so wide the comb needs the extra support.

    How often do you need to replace the tissue?? And do you need to redo the entrance if it rains?

    • @beekeepingnaturally
      @beekeepingnaturally หลายเดือนก่อน

      I add 3 drops on the same tissue every 2 weeks. The roof of my Kenyan hive is designed to keep the rain off the body of the hive and the entrance. But if your hive has no roof then after a good rain i guess i would smear another drop around the entrance

      Thanks for watching. When I first moved over from conventional Langstroth hives, I started using Warre hive’s. I found them great for the bees but after a few seasons I decided to try a Kenyan hive and that’s the direction I went in. I find them so much easier to use than the Warre hives although I still have a soft spot for them. They are great hives! I still have a few empty ones and im thinking of getting them going again this spring

      @@beekeepingnaturally Thanks for the reply. It is the tool I was recommending, not the hive. It would make detaching comb from the walls much easier! I design and build my own hives. Currently I have a couple which are based on the warre, but next spring I will be trying a long-hive built out of hay bales.

    Great video! I'm a Kenyan bee farmer. Now have 52 hives. After i started using the KTBH (Kenya Top Bar Hive), i realised its much easier to handle than other hives even when it comes to inspection and harvesting. Also it gives more honey and wax and gets colonised faster than other hives.

      @@beekeepingnaturally I don’t have any videos but I’ll try to upload some photos to Imgur and share! The lid gives two inches clearance above the bars, all around plus there is additional clearance in the middle since it slopes from a point. So I could do a shallow cathedral bar set, replacing the flat bars I have now. I used all rough sawn cedar 2x4’s so it’s pretty well insulated.
