Its Pete from cheap homesteading and today I'm doing a review on Maxim 3900 wax
melter Maxim has an awesome name and this is the first thing that bought from
them and it is really quite a good quality and a stainless steel nice
stainless steel pieces taps and everything are just good quality so I'm
pretty happy with it and it does absolutely incredible job at what it
does they call it a wax melter but it liquefies pales and honey it
melts wax I haven't used it for melting wax yet but I will be doing that in the
future so my business was getting bigger and I needed something to live like
pails of honey because once you start storing pails of honey
once it crystallizing you have to have something to liquefy it with so here's
the Maxum 2900 WPT it is very well made nice elbows taps hood stainless steel
sides these taps are for if your liquefying wax I am gonna use it for
that very shortly but I've only liquefied honey with it i will sow you how well
does down here is the heating element and it is adjustable I find that I'm
like flying honey I don't want to put it past a hundred because in my own mind
high temperatures 100 so all the goodness that's in the honey is not
gonna get right out of it when you're selling honey
good product for people and keeping the temperature definitely not too warm when
your liquefying it leaves the good stuff in the honey so that's what I want to
sell to my customers so that's why I admit it we got this I just so it can be
a very steady temperature and they don't burn all the good stuff out of their
honey so basically inside there's a rack that
covers up the heating element and you set your pail on it
okay so basically when you store your honey depends on the type of honey you
have but it will heart it will crystallize and you'll have to do
something with it and it's fine if you just have a little
bit of honey you can put it in some warm water and leave it for a little bit and
it'll be political finding when you have a whole tail even in this it takes two
days if it's fully solid so that becomes difficult
I'm gonna set the whole pill on me in here so now you can adjust it I have it
just here over a hundred and the element is
on the lights on okay so we're gonna take it out of the
liquefier yes you've got it with your wax melter and that there's quite a bit
of water obsolete you dry that off because the
condensation falling on it so we have fully liquid honey
for some reason Canada they have these food grade peels at Home Depot and they
decided to print Home Depot port on the side of it which i think is crazy
because most people use food really don't want Home Depot there's my
bottling pail that's why they need me to fill my chairs with it has a honey dijon
it I cleaned it out really good because if you have a little bit of crystallized
honey in there nap and you pour your liquefied honey in there it'll
crystallize faster if I saw
when I look at this it's draining very nicely but the problem here is I need to
get a pail holder that holds the pail back out of there because you leave it
like this and then it starts dripping from this
side of the pail and it covers your wife's to work with honey make sure you
put something down just in case it's basically I have found that if the whole
pail is solid it takes about two and a bit days at a hundred if it ends up
being half liquefied it probably only take you a day and a half but that's
kind of what I have found with this and it is works great two days later we
basically pull it out and it's all great so you guys have a good one
