Honey Tanks

Now I have a stainless steel tank with tap and the whole process is a lot more efficient and enjoyable. Watch the honey flow and listen to my delight:

The benefits of filling jars with honey using this type of tank (as opposed to using ladles) is best described in numbers:

  • 70% – reduction in the time it took to fill the jars
  • 99% – less sticky

Types Of Honey Tank

Alternatives: Tanks made of plastic or stainless steel, varying in capacity from 25Kg to 100Kg.

My 50kg stainless steel tank is from Maisemore (who gave me a fab deal in return for mentioning them).  Looking at the competition in September 2013, their price was lower than similar products – but do have a look around.

Please mention me if you do buy from Maisemore!
