Honey• Sweet fluid produced by honey
bees. • Derived from flower nectar.• Sweetness comes from
monosaccharides ,fructose and glucose.
• It has a long history in human consumption and is used in various foods and beverages as a sweetener and flavouring agent.

CASTES OF HONEYBEES1.QUEEN
It is the mother of the colony
There is only one queen in a hive
She can lay over 1500 eggs per day
She will live for 2-8 years.
![Page 11: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
2.DRONESDrones are male member of the
familyThey are present in few hundred in
number in a hiveTheir life span is
6-8 weeksThey are stingless,
defenseless and unable to feed themselves
![Page 12: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
3. WORKERSThey are sterile
females. The worker bee
comprises the bulk of the population in the colony
The worker cells are flat hexagonal cells.
The workers usually live for about 5-6 weeks.

WHAT IS ROYAL JELLY ?Royal jelly is the food fed to queen bee larvae. It is a creamy white color and is very rich in proteins and fatty acids. It is produced by mouth glands in young bees. Each queen needs only a teaspoon of royal jelly, so as health product it is very expensive.
![Page 16: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
WHAT IS BEE WAX?• Bee wax is one of the
valuable product of bee keeping industry.
• The wax is secreted by workers bees.
• The wax is discharged as a liquid later turns to pearly white scales.
• The bees have to consume 10-15 kg of honey to produce 1 kg of beewax.
![Page 17: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
WHAT IS PROPOLIS ?
• Propolis is a sticky, gummy resinous material gathered by bees.
• It can be used as a healing agent.
• Effective against Itching.
![Page 18: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
WHAT IS BEE VENOM?
• It is a clear liquid with sharp bitter taste, aromatic odour an acidic reaction.
• It is effective against asthma, neurosis, migraine.
• It increases haemoglobin content and decreases cholesterol and blood pressure.
![Page 19: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Honey Production• Bee collect honey as a food
source• After collecting nectar the
bees use their honey stomachs to ingest and regurgitate the nectar a number of times until it is partially digested
• It is then stored in honeycomb cells
• After the final reguritation the honeycomb is left unsealed
![Page 20: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• The process continues as bees inside the hive fan their wings to create a strong draft across the honeycomb
• This enhances evaporation which raises the sugar concentration and prevents fermentation
![Page 21: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Inside the Hive• 1 Queen bee• Seasonally variable number of drone
male bees• 20,000-40,000 female worker bees– They raise the larve and collect the nectar
that becomes honey in the hive

Removing honey from honey supers
•The process of removing honey from supers is called “extracting” if liquid honey is being obtained. For the sake of time, we are not going to discuss comb honey production. This is a topic for a more advanced class.
•The process begins with removing the cappings from the honey comb. This is usually done with a knife. If you have several supers of honey to extract, it pays to have a good knife.

![Page 46: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
HONEYDEW HONEY• Made from the sweet
secretions of aphids or other plant sap-sucking insects
• Dark in color with a rich fragrance
• Not as sweet as nectar honeys
• Popular in some areas (Germany’s Black Forest and some portions of Bulgaria)
• Production is much more complicated and dangerous
![Page 47: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
COMB HONEY• Meant to be
consumed still in the wax comb

life• Preferred by the
supermarket trade
![Page 54: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
ULTRASONICATED HONEY
• Processed by ultrasonication• Non-thermal alternative for
processing• Destroys most of the yeast
cells and those that are not destroyed generally lose their ability to grow
• Reduces the rate of fermentation
![Page 55: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
WHIPPED HONEY• Aka—creamed honey,
spun honey, churned honey, candied honey, honey fondant
• Processed to control cyrstallization
• Also produces a honey with a smooth spreadable consistancy
![Page 56: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

STORAGE• Suitable for long term• Recommended to be stored
for 2 (max. 3) years• Main goal is to prevent
fermentation• Best honey is that in the comb
that has been sealed with wax by the bee
• Should not be stored in metal containers. Ceramic or wood are best
• Dark, dry place to prevent moisture absorption
![Page 58: Honey proessing](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052400/55a204861a28abe9648b4575/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
