Traditional beekeepers keep bees in beehives. When they need to collect honey, they pull out the partitions of the beehive and send the partitions into a centrifuge to collect honey. The whole process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it inevitably disturbs the life of the bees. Australian beekeeping father-and-son team Stuart Anderson and Cedar Anderson spent ten years developing different ways of harvesting honey. Flow Hive is not only convenient and fast, but also keeps bees from being disturbed. It can be said to be a great boon to beekeepers. .
Flow Hive is a new type of beehive. The bees in the beehive also use wax to seal the honey in the partitions and mature it. However, through the vertical partition design in the beehive, the honey is guided to flow into the sealed groove below the beehive. , so when you need to collect honey, just turn the valve and the honey will flow out of the valve, making collecting honey as easy as turning on a faucet. After the collection is completed, close the valve, return it to its original position, and wait for the honey to fill the sealed tank again.
The entire honey collection process is quick and convenient, and does not disturb the honey in the beehive at all. Beekeepers do not need to wear heavy protective clothing, which greatly reduces the chance of being stung by bees. Although it is not yet possible to judge the chances of commercial mass production, at least for individual beekeepers, it will greatly reduce their burden, especially if they want to eat whatever they want, it is best to grow and raise it themselves. In the age of trust, with Flow Hive, we may see more and more restaurants raising and harvesting their own bees
