Creamed honey mixer 70 L automatic LYSON

01 · CREAMING IS NOT HEATING OR MELTING

What has to be ready before you fill the tank

Creaming is directed crystallisation: you break the large crystals and spread a fine-crystal seed honey through the whole mass. That happens in a narrow band, around 14-18 °C depending on the honey, which is where the crystal grows small.

Since the tank does not temper, that band has to come from the room. And the honey must go in fluid or semi-fluid: if it has already set solid, this machine will not undo it, because liquefying is another job and asks for heat that is not here.

02 · THE SEED AND THE PROGRAMMED CYCLE

The C-05 controller repeats the recipe day and night

The classic recipe starts from a fraction of already creamed honey as seed, and from there what counts is consistency: cycles of work and rest repeated over days.

That is exactly what the C-05 does: you set the mixing and pause intervals, the display shows which phase it is in, and the machine carries on alone while you are at the apiary. The motor cuts out when you lift the lid, so looking at the product does not mean stopping the cycle by hand.

03 · THE STIRRER AND THE AIR

Moving a dense mass without whipping it like cream

The stainless steel helical stirrer turns at 36 rpm: a low speed, meant to drag a dense mass up from the bottom without taking in air.

It matters because whipped air rises to the surface as a white foam you have to skim before packing, and because that is product lost. A well-run creaming leaves a minimal layer, not a finger of foam.

04 · HONEY-HOUSE DETAILS

Valve, steel and looking after the lid

Tank and stirrer are AISI 304 stainless steel in everything that touches the honey. The 5/4 inch gate valve empties straight into smaller settling tanks or into the packing line, and the whole thing runs on 230 V: it fits an ordinary workshop, with no three-phase installation.

One warning that saves grief: the lid is acrylic, and alcohol and harsh cleaners give it microcracks. Warm water — 25 °C at most — and neutral soap with a soft sponge.

05 · BEFORE YOU BUY

The machine solves the stirring; the room solves the crystallisation.
