Mary Shelley didn’t give the monster bolts.

Arthur Conan Doyle never put Holmes in a deer stalker (also “elementary my dear Watson” is never said in the books, and he doesn’t smoke a curved pipe)

There are boys at Beauxbatons and girls at Durmstrang schools

Edgar Allan Poe wrote the earliest essay on the big bang theory

fuck this site I thought the tv show for the briefest of seconds and the shit machine in my skull thought “quoth the raven ‘Bazongo”

Well, I’m here to show you what these wonderful little ladies make, and how us humans collect the extra.

Some Vocabulary:

image

This is a Langstroth beehive. Those boxes in it are called “Supers”. Supers hold 10 frames each. Frames look like this.

image

I’m here to teach you about honey extraction from this particular kind of hive, and when you only have like 5 or 6.

The Process:

First, we start with the frame of honey.

image

Notice anything? The bees have “capped” this honey with beeswax so it can keep for the winter! (or beekeep heheh)

So what you wanna do is cut those bad boys off with ya Hot Knife.

image

(Or you can just scrape them off with a fork. Or poke holes in them. Dealer’s choice, man.)

Next, you put your uncapped frames in the Crazy Spin Cylinder. (The Extractor)

image

And YA CRANK IT

image

And the honey sp i n s

image

Honey GO

image

H O N  E  Y


The frames are spun at such a high speed that the honey is pulled right out!

Next, you open the spigot at the bottom, run it through a strainer…

image

Pour it in a jar…

image

and VOILA!

image
image

Beautiful Bee Nectar that you got yaself! This has been a PSA

As a fellow beekeeper can confirm that Crazy Spin Cylinder is in fact the official and technical term.

This was a most informative PSA. I dig it.

This is kinda sexy

Beeeeeeeeeeees!

before i go sleep i just wanted to say:


ROXY LALONDE HAS DONE NOTHING WRONG IN HER LIFE

Killing jaspers

but did she mean to do that? no
and she felt pretty bad afterwards
plus it was essential for jaspersprite to become a thing


so yeah roxy has done nothing wrong in her life ever

just because it was neccissary doesn’t mean that it wasn’t bad. Because then vriska never did anything wrong and she’s done SO many things wrong
