We build honey press machines that let you extract comb honey and beeswax cleanly, without electricity. When you lean on the T-handle you feel steady, linear torque; the reinforced cross-beam doesn’t flex, and warm honey runs in a clear sheet from the spout. That control matters when you’re processing mixed nectar flows or fragile comb.
Who we are. BuzzBeeEquip is a factory-direct maker of apiculture equipment serving distributors, cooperatives, and commercial apiaries across Eastern Europe & Central Asia, Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America. Our workshop focuses on food-contact metals and tight-tolerance assemblies for harvest tools. We also supply full lines for honey extraction, filtering & storage, protective wear, and small processing systems—so you can source presses, extractors, strainers, and tanks in one PO.
Why our honey press machines.
-
Food-grade 304 stainless steel (AISI 304): No coatings, no leaching, easy to sanitize with hot water. Barrels and perforated baskets are single-piece formed where possible to reduce weld seams.
-
Reinforced structure: A wide, braced cross-beam and a large-pitch pressure screw deliver smooth force, so you don’t “hunt” for bite when the comb is dense.
-
Clean yield, lower wax loss: The crush-and-strain method opens cells without shredding cappings; paired filter bags keep pollen grains out of the settling tank.
-
Built for the field: Rolled edges protect hands and filter bags; legs are TIG-welded for stability on damp floors; all parts rinse clean without trapping propolis.
-
Right-sized options: From compact 56 × 24 cm, ~6 kg units for small rooms to heavier-gauge presses with baskets or smooth barrels for wax cakes.
Experience you can trust. We run these presses through full harvest cycles in our own test apiary before a design leaves engineering. We document metal grades by batch, keep QC photos for every lot, and ship with multilingual quick-start cards. Typical configurations include: stainless steel wax press, manual honey press machine, and crush and strain honey press bundles with filter bags.
OEM/ODM & export readiness. You get flexible MOQ, laser-etched logos, branded cartons/manuals, and CIF/FOB paperwork handled to your port of choice. Our team supports NGO and cooperative tenders with datasheets, warranty terms, and training media.

FAQs — Honey Press Machine Manufacturer & Supplier
You come here to get straight answers about a honey press machine—materials, use, export docs, and after-sales. I run presses on real comb every season and spec hardware like an engineer, so you get field-tested guidance you can act on today.
This FAQ focuses on manual honey press machines / stainless steel wax press systems for crush-and-strain extraction in B2B settings: co-ops, distributors, NGO projects, and commercial apiaries.
What size and build should I choose for mid-scale operations?
Start with the 56 × 24 cm barrel; it’s a practical footprint for 50–300 hives and fits standard decanting pails. You’ll feel firm leverage because the rolled rim and reinforced crossbeam resist ovalizing under load—no rocking, no thread chatter.
Why 304 stainless for a honey press for extraction?
Choose food-grade 304 (18/8) stainless steel because honey’s natural acidity (pH ~3.2–4.5) and hot washdowns corrode cheaper alloys. Our one-piece formed bodies with TIG-welded joints and unpainted, passivated surfaces keep metal stable and your honey clean.
Can one unit work as a stainless steel wax press and a honey press?
Yes—this is a dual-use manual comb honey press. Swap between crush-and-strain honey and wax squeezing using the same spindle and plate; pick straight or bent spouts and add 3-stage filter bags when you want bright, bottle-ready honey.
How “stable” does it feel at full squeeze?
Under a heavy crank, you’ll feel solid, linear resistance—not springy flex. The widened, reinforced beam and thickened wall keep hoop stress in check, so the barrel stays round and the plate tracks square.
What throughput can I expect from a manual honey press machine?
Manual presses excel at sticky cappings, cut comb, and heather or high-viscosity honey where centrifugals struggle. Run smaller, well-packed charges for better yield; staged squeezes (press—relax—repack) consistently beat one hard push.
How do I clean and sanitize a stainless steel wax honey press?
Rinse hot (60–70 °C) to melt residual sugars, then wash with a food-safe alkaline cleaner and finish with a citric acid neutralizer; avoid chlorine bleach on austenitic stainless. The mirror-polished interior sheds residue, and the assembly breaks down tool-free.
What are the packaging, MOQ, and shipping options for distributors?
Units ship carton-in-carton with foam and palletize cleanly for LCL/FCL. MOQs are pallet-level by SKU, with pilot quantities available for co-ops and project trials; we quote EXW/FOB/CIF based on your lane to keep landed cost predictable.
Can you OEM our brand and localize labels?
Yes—laser-etched logos, silk-screened cartons, and user manuals in your language. We can color-tag handles by model and print SKU/HS labels to speed customs checks and warehouse put-away.
Manual honey press vs. electric extractor—how should I choose?
Pick a manual honey press machine when you want low power, field-ready, crush-and-strain simplicity with wax recovery. Choose an extractor for high-volume, uncapped frame throughput; many apiaries run both to match nectar flow, flora, and labor.
Can a manual honey press keep the wax “undamaged” and can it be recovered?
Yes—a manual honey press preserves wax quality and lets you recover it easily, but it does not keep comb structure intact. Pressing is a crush-and-strain method: the honey flows, the comb is crushed, and you lift out a clean press-cake of wax that renders beautifully afterward.
Why this works (field + engineering):
When you press at hive-friendly temperatures (30–35 °C pre-warm), the beeswax stays solid (melting point ≈62–64 °C), so you’re not dissolving wax into the honey. The 304 stainless barrel and TIG-welded seams resist acids from residual honey (pH ~3.2–4.5), so you don’t leach metals or paint—wax purity and color stay true.
How to keep wax quality high and maximize recovery
-
Pre-warm comb/cappings to 30–35 °C. You’ll feel smoother torque and need fewer turns; wax stays solid, honey viscosity drops.
-
Press in stages (press—relax—repack). This prevents side-load “walking” and squeezes more honey without grinding wax.
-
Use staged filtration. Coarse → medium → fine filter bags keep micro-wax out of the honey and leave a cleaner press-cake.
-
Let the press-cake drain. Rest it on a sieve for 2–12 h so residual honey leaves the wax before rendering.
-
Render gently. Break the cake and render in a water bath at 70–75 °C; avoid >90 °C to prevent darkening and off-odors.
-
Use food-contact metals only. 304 SS pots and spouts; avoid chlorine bleach on stainless—rinse hot, wash alkaline, neutralize with citric.
Press vs. extractor (so you choose the right tool)
-
Manual honey press machine / stainless steel wax press: Best when you want the wax (cut-comb, cappings, heather/viscous honeys). Wax is fully recoverable, comb cells are not reusable.
-
Centrifugal extractor: Best when you want to reuse frames; comb remains intact, but you’ll recover less wax because you aren’t crushing it.
Product fit (what I use in the shop)
-
56 × 24 cm, ~6 kg manual comb honey press with rolled rim and reinforced cross-beam—no barrel ovalizing under load, so wax isn’t smeared into the filters.
-
Bent-spout option + 3-stage filter set—clean drum-filling, bright honey, tidy wax cakes ready for rendering.
Bottom line: If your goal is clean, recoverable beeswax and clear, low-air honey from crush-and-strain, a manual honey press is exactly the right tool. If you need intact comb for reuse, choose an extractor instead.
-
What maintenance keeps torque smooth season after season?
Wipe the spindle after each wash and apply a food-grade NLGI #2 grease to the threads monthly in heavy use. Inspect gaskets, filter seams, and the crossbeam bolts; we stock spares and include a starter seal kit with bulk orders.
Which models fit small household honey press needs vs. co-ops?
For hobby or micro-lots, choose the small household honey press configuration with filter set + drip pan for tidy kitchen work. For co-ops, step up to thick-rim / heavy-beam builds (approx. 9–11 jin net mass options) that shrug off daily squeezing.
How do filters and the bent spout improve real-world yield?
Nested coarse/medium/fine bags cut re-straining time and reduce air bubbles in jars. The bent spout clears the barrel skirt and directs flow into drums without splashing—less stick on floors, faster changeovers.
What safety practices matter with a manual comb honey press?
Keep hands above the plate path, use non-slip boots, and set the press on level, non-porous flooring. Pre-warm comb to 30–35 °C in a warming cabinet to reduce crank force and protect the thread from shock loads.
Do you offer warranties and part support across regions?
Yes—12-month warranty, stocked consumables (gaskets, filters, pins), and 48-hour parts dispatch for contract accounts. For Eastern Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America, we stage parts with regional partners to cut downtime.
