Honey Flow Hive

An update on the Honey Flow Hive system.  We never got a chance to see for ourselves because our hive was slow starting and the bees only managed to make sufficient honey for their winter food, but many have asked us if this Australian hive invention will work in Canada's cold climate. I read this statement on a Honey Flow site.

For those with questions about using Flow in cold climates, you may be interested in this experience from Alaska: 

"I am an Alaskan beekeeper. We just got our first batch of honey from the flow hive. It worked JUST like in your pictures......20 minutes for a frame to empty.

I had seen a comment on a web site about the fact that this may not work in cold climates. It works VERY well....considering the hive keeps the temperature ~90 degrees, the honey flows out just like in Australia!

If anyone is concerned about using it in northern climates where it is cold, it very DEFINITELY works as advertised and makes recovery on the honey SO much easier." - Kathy, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
