How It Works
A manual honey extractor operates on the principle of centrifugal force. The frames are placed inside a metal drum, and a hand crank is used to spin them. As the frames rotate, the honey is flung out of the combs and collects at the bottom of the drum, ready to be drained. This method is gentle on the combs, allowing them to be returned to the hive for reuse.
