I know this is your TH-cam channel but just wanted to give you and Josh 2 thumbs up for your podcasts. I am enjoying them and I catch myself wanting to yell I AGREE! 💞
i spread mine out on cookie sheets and let the bees get one last sweep to get all the remaining honey... it sorta resembles fake snow when theyre done
Great job explaining. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome! Beewax is such a useful product really I had never knew how much it could be used for
It really is! I just used some for some calendula balm for the baby after baths.
Thank you so much for this tutorial!
You are so welcome! I'm so glad it was helpful to you!
Been considering bees for 7 or 8 years now- and seeing this makes me wonder why I haven't pulled the trigger yet. So, 6 hours to do this but while you're busy working on other things throughout the day? Not bad! I have bee envy 😜 -Josh
It would probably be easier to add some water to your hot mixture so that the honey would dissolve and no longer stick to the hardened wax. Of course, your honey wouldn't have a honey texture anymore and will become a perishable, but you can use the honey water directly into a sweet soup or dessert or beverage or something.
Water rendering would have been way easier?
Quite possibly, but I am a self-taught beekeeper learning as i ho, and when this was made 2 years ago I'd never heard of it. 😊
@@CreatingEssence and with water, you dont get honey
Does it harm bees?? Many people saying its not vegan friendly?
It in no way harms the bees. They were finished with both the honey and the wax and had left it, so we used it and set the frames out on the back porch for the wild bees to come clean if they so desired(they're attracted to the smell of other bees' honey). Vegans typically do not like the use of honey or beeswax because we cannot ask the bees' permission to take it.
