Lyson 12 Frame Manual Honey Extractor - Stainless Steel Beekeeping Equipment for Home & Commercial Use - Harvest Fresh Honey Easily

Product Description

The 12 frame Lyson manual honey extractor is the perfect in-between size for the hobbyist with at least a few hives.

Lyson’s signature side-mounted crank makes their manual extractors, comfortable, effective, and efficient.

Is a 4 frame extractor not enough, but you don’t quite need a 20 frame? This 500mm manual radial extractor from Lyson was designed as a sweet spot for hobbyists, handling 12 frames without adding extra bulk.

Frames fit radially so no need to flip them during extraction!

• Stainless steel drum: 20" diameter X 24" tall
• Heavy duty welded stainless steel basket (4 segments, 3 frame per segment)

Radial vs Tangential What is the Difference?

Tangential:

• Frames are parallel with the center of the basket. Only the comb facing outward is extracted.
• Frames must be flipped multiple times to extract both sides and to prevent blowouts where the comb breaks due to the weight of the honey.
• Better for thicker honey as it's easier for honey to move perpendicular, than to move at a slight angle like that of the radial extractor.

Radial:

• Frames face the center at a slight angle so comb on both sides can be extracted.
• Frames don’t need to be flipped.
