Franz Hruschka, Franz von Hruschka, Francesco De Hruschka, František Hruška (1819 – 1888) was an Austrian/Italian of Czech origin officer and beekeeper known as the inventor of the honey extractor, an invention he presented in 1865 at the Brno Beekeeper Conference.
Cowan designed the cylindrical honey extractor. He was the editor of the British Bee Journal and the Bee Keepers' Record. [6] Cowan authored books on beekeeping and related topics and was a collector of beekeeping books. Upon his death, his library numbered more than 1,800 books, which formed the basis of the Cowan Memorial Library. [7]
Some beekeepers will also harvest (before uncapping the honey) the propolis, a resinous material bees gather to glue the frames together; propolis is used for its supposed medicinal properties. Once uncapped, the frames are then placed in a honey extractor, which spins them so that most of the honey is removed by centrifugal force. Care must be ...
But not all of these beekeepers are producing honey at the scale measured by the Census, which could account for the lower reported growth in honey production. Census data shows that the number of ...
Then there was Saturday night in Montreal’s Bell Center, where a wild, rowdy crowd jammed the place for the NHL’s version of an “all-star” event — 4 Nations Face-Off — and a game ...

Stanley was primarily interested in their bit and brace designs, which continued to be produced unchanged at Stanley for decades, and the spiral ratchet "Yankee" screwdrivers. The ...
Honey bees consume about 8.4 lb (3.8 kg) of honey to secrete 1 lb (450 g) of wax, [1] and so beekeepers may return the wax to the hive after harvesting the honey to improve honey outputs. The structure of the comb may be left basically intact when honey is extracted from it by uncapping and spinning in a centrifugal honey extractor.
