whenever I have the opportunity to speak to older people, I always soak up as much knowledge as they are willing to give me ... and most of the time, that is more than I can remember. I've had bee hives since 2015 and I know how much skill that took to remove that honey from natural drawn comb without tearing all the way through it. I have always hated plastic frames but it does take a lot more effort to remove honey from natural drawn comb.
I think i will stick with my 2 frame extractor. It is faster and easier and the comb if left intact so the bees can immediately start putting honey back in to them.
Thank you. Can you do another interview with him and ask him other things also? Like what kinds of genetics has he tried, and which he liked the most? What kinds of box designs does he like, and ... well you could ask people so many things. I guess you have to avoid asking him business secrets, but asking him about which genetics he's tried and liked would be quite interesting.
Isn’t it good for the bees to make new comb? Your suppose to change the comb out every so often aren’t you? So if it’s gonna save me the price of equipment and the extra cleanup of equipment I think let the bees make new comb. Plus doesn’t it give you a bunch of wax to collect?
You should periodically change out the comb because of pesticides. So you are correct. There is nothing wrong with doing it this way but I prefer an extractor.
@@MakermookThe flow hive is given free to beekeeping tubers who have enormous amounts of subscribers for advertising it. It is a TOTAL gimmick and very complicated to use and unnatural for bees.
Nichole Williams I have worked in senior homes for over 20 years now. I see a home where nothing is wasted. The sink was clean with a lot of saved containers and packaging around the kitchen and dining area. I had the same thoughts of clutter early in my career. It may be a sense of order for him to be able to see everything. The first thing I thought at the beginning of this video is how much i'd love to hear about his history from him. Side note: I had a coworker who grew up in a concentration camp and I learned very quick that even a scrap of paper can be valuable. So I adopted the practice of clipping scrap paper for notes. And I agree with you Nichole, that was a very cool extraction. I love that he is still at it and sharing his technique. Have a happy and blessed summer. :)
Best part right at the end - "beekeeping is fun, alright!"

He seems like a sweet man =]
You go Ray! Whatever makes you happy.
He has to have the strongest arms after doing this for so many years... I would die doing this 😱
...Ray has lived in 7 States but says he is still going to finally return to Poland. No place like home.
I was wondering where he was from
My grandmother came from Poland
Thanks
Ray is fantastic! Thanks!
I think I might prefer foundationless frames and then just cut it out in cubes and put them in jars give them to my friends wax and all.

Thank you, I'm off to do my frames this way right now!
The elder guy is from Poland :D I'm surprised, he speaks English soooo well! ;D
xd, he lives there since 1977, normaly for this time ;)
Great job Ray!
Well that's kinda satisfying
Thank you so much for the video.
yum yum real”Raw Honey “,love the way he lick’s his fingers then carry’s on working 😂👍🏼
I love to see how older people extract honey. No machines no gadgets just good old spatula buckets and strainer...
I'd like you see you replacing the cleaned hives to see this process all the way through !
What a treasure!!! God bless this man!
The honey will still be full of bits of wax and have a waxy taste after straining it through a kitchen strainer!
No it won’t.
How do you think the wax gets removed by professionals?
Poland looking Texan awesome!
Excellent
Wow. Just wow. Saved to favorites.
Almost sounds like bubble wrap 😂
this is a great how not to extract honey video
Cầu ong nhiều mật ngon quá ạ
Great advertisement for the Flow Hive - assuming you are just a hobbyist and not a commercial beekeeper.
The Flow Hive is hella expensive, though.

I had been using dynamite on them, but now that I see this...
Cold honey is hard to harvest.
looks like a wok spoon
I had been using dynamite on them...
cool extraction but that house was a straight up mess. Tidy up guys.

If you live that long without help, you can live however you want!

See
New title "How not to extract honey"
Help him loll
Just like his house, he made a mess out of the frames. 🤣
unclean plastic container and drainer
What a waste. Why not save the comb and help the bees.
🏠 is very MESSY....🙄🤐
his home is very nasty and the "new container" had stuff all in it i would never buy his honey his kitchen is to nasty to me js ray clean us a bit
Brandy Gordon boy aren’t you a lovely woman
He didn't do a neat job... Was too hasty
Only haters would comment negatively.....nice job young fella....anyone who is not ganna say anything intelligent.please s.t.f.up!
Seems to me if he left those frames by his hives, the bees would finish the clean up!
☝😊
@@brandibartolomucci789 -- That's exactly what would happen. They'd lap up every speck of honey.
Painful to watch
Seems a bit destructive
Polak ? :))))))
oh its not sanitary at all
Gross, potential germs everywhere, hope he does not sell this to unsuspecting customers.
Ray is nasty
No good
What a mess.
Get an extractor.
Oh those russians!
