Honey production and pollination services increase significantly, and so does beekeeper enjoyment and honey bee health in general, by improving regional and independent beekeeping practices through better husbandry and recognition skills of diseases and pest problems as well as and better colony management.

Honey Extractor Rental Program Season opens 01 July 2023
Need to extract your honey? Congratulations!
You may rent the club's radial &motorized honey extractor for a nominal $30 fee (2 days), available to current and active association members. In addition, you may also wish to use an un-capping tub or drainer. These un-capping tubs are available for purchase from either Dadant & Sons or Rossman Apiaries for your own.
1) Please read the Rules & Info.
2) Review the Reservation List (as-of 14 October 2022) for availability.
3) Next, send a reservation request via emal to: beekeepers@nekba.org.
We'll get back to you asap. Please try to keep to the 2-day rental limit as others may be in need of the extractor, although there is some flexibility if there is no immediate need.
The club extractor holds up to six (6) medium (6 5/8" Illinois-sized super) frames only - very sorry but this extractor will not accommodate larger (9 5/8" or deep ) frame sizes.
IF the extractor were any bigger, it would not fit in your vehicle to transport.
Here's is a link for operation and maintenance of the Dadant Ranger extractor.
