Detail of the basic equipment used in beekeeping, namely types of scrapers to scrape off the honey etc from the wax comb. In more commercial enterprises the honey is centrifuged in appropriate machines which use speed to draw off the honey from the comb. One can see different colours of honey, this denotes from which flower or collection of flowers it was extracted. Honey is a thick sweet, supersaturated sugar solution manufactured by the bees to feed their larvae and for subsistence in winter. The nectar of flowers is ingested by worker bees and converted to honey in special sacs in their esophagi. It is stored and aged in combs in their hives. Bee honey is put to many uses by humans. Bee honey is composed of fructose, glucose, and water, in varying proportions; it also contains several enzymes and oils. The color and flavour depend on the age of the honey and on the source of the nectar. Light-coloured honeys are usually of higher quality than darker honeys; high-grade honeys are made by bees from orange blossoms, clover, and alfalfa. A well-known type is made from wild thyme.
