Full Comb • Medium Labor • Clean Output

Honeycomb melt is the middle‑workload wax service. It’s full comb — honey still inside, cells intact — and it behaves differently in the melter than cappings or brood. It melts slower, sticks to everything, and needs more filtering, but it produces good, usable wax once processed.

What You Bring In

Full honeycomb
Honey‑heavy frames or chunks
Light to medium debris
No brood (that’s a different service)

What We Do

Slow melt to prevent scorching
Multiple heat checks
Sticky tray cleanup
Medium‑level filtering
Honey separation and removal

Honeycomb melt is predictable, but it demands more attention than cappings.

What You Get Back

Clean wax
Honey fully removed
Medium turnaround time
Consistent color and texture

This wax is good for candles, salves, and general craft work.

Pricing

$20–25 per pound Honey increases melt time, heat management, and cleanup.

Turnaround Time

Usually next day, depending on weather and melter load.

Why It Costs What It Costs

Honey slows everything down. You’re paying for:

Extra heat management
Sticky tray cleanup
Additional filtering
Longer melt cycle

It’s still straightforward work — just not fast work.
