Carl Fritz 100kg Stainless Steel Heated Honey Bottling Tank 800W

Professional German-made stainless steel honey tank with integrated 800W thermostatically controlled bottom heating. Ideal for honey settling, warming and bottling.

The Carl Fritz 100kg Heated Honey Bottling Tank is a premium stainless steel honey processing tank designed for beekeepers who want greater control and convenience when preparing honey for bottling.

Combining a generous 100kg honey capacity with an integrated 800W electric bottom heater, this tank helps improve honey flow and makes dispensing thicker or more viscous honey easier.

Featuring a gently sloping stainless steel base, a low-positioned 1½-inch honey tap, sturdy carrying handles and a loose-fitting lid, it's a practical addition to any dedicated honey processing room.

Supplied as one complete heated honey tank, with the 800W bottom heater professionally installed by Carl Fritz in Germany. No separate heater installation is required.

Key Features & Benefits

• 100kg Honey Capacity – Ideal for larger honey harvests, settling, temporary storage and bottling.

• Integrated 800W Bottom Heating – Helps warm honey gently from beneath the tank to improve flow during dispensing.

• Adjustable Thermostat – Allows the heating system to be controlled according to your honey processing requirements.

• Insulated Heating System – A 9mm isoGLAS® insulating layer beneath the heating mat helps reduce downward heat loss.

• Premium Stainless Steel Construction – Durable, hygienic and easy to clean after use.

• Sloping Tank Base – Encourages honey to drain towards the outlet, reducing the amount left behind.

• Low-Positioned 1½-Inch Honey Tap – Convenient for dispensing honey into jars, buckets and other suitable containers.

• Loose-Fitting Stainless Steel Lid – Provides a practical cover during honey settling and storage.

• German-Made Carl Fritz Quality – Specialist honey processing equipment from an established German manufacturer.

Why Choose a Heated Honey Bottling Tank?

Honey naturally varies in consistency depending on its floral source, temperature and degree of crystallisation.

Some varieties remain relatively fluid, while others become thick and slow-moving, making bottling and dispensing more time-consuming.

A heated honey bottling tank provides controlled warmth to help improve honey flow, making it easier to work with honey that has become particularly viscous.

The Carl Fritz 100kg Heated Honey Tank is particularly useful for:

• Honey Bottling – Helping thicker honey flow more easily through the dispensing tap.

• Honey Settling – Providing a suitable stainless steel vessel for allowing air bubbles and fine particles to rise before bottling.

• Temporary Honey Storage – Holding honey between extraction and bottling.

• Honey Transfer – Dispensing honey into smaller containers or suitable downstream processing equipment.

The integrated bottom heating makes this a particularly practical choice for beekeepers looking to improve the efficiency of their honey processing and bottling setup.

Integrated 800W Electric Bottom Heating

Unlike a standard unheated honey tank, this model features a powerful 800W / 230V silicone heating mat fitted directly beneath the stainless steel base.

The heater is thermostatically controlled, allowing the operator to adjust the heating according to the honey being processed.

Carl Fritz also fits a 9mm isoGLAS® insulating layer beneath the heating element, helping to reduce heat loss from the underside of the tank.

The heating system is professionally installed by Carl Fritz, so the tank arrives as one complete unit.

Please note: Bottom heating is intended to assist honey warming and dispensing. It should not be confused with a dedicated honey liquefier or warming cabinet designed to heat an entire batch of fully crystallised honey.

Temperature Control & Honey Quality

Maintaining appropriate honey temperatures is important when preparing honey for bottling.

The thermostatically controlled bottom heater allows warmth to be applied to the base of the tank, helping improve the flow of honey towards the outlet.

For many routine bottling applications, gentle warming at approximately 35–40°C may be suitable, depending on the honey variety and processing requirements.

However, the thermostat setting controls the heating system and does not necessarily represent the temperature throughout the honey.

We recommend monitoring the actual honey temperature independently and avoiding unnecessary or prolonged heating to help preserve honey quality.

The heater should always be operated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Designed for Efficient Honey Dispensing

The Carl Fritz 100kg tank features a carefully designed stainless steel base that slopes gently towards the honey outlet.

The 1½-inch honey tap is positioned at bottom level, helping honey drain efficiently and reducing the amount remaining in the tank.

This is particularly useful when bottling honey or transferring the contents into smaller containers.

The tank also features:

• Seam-welded, gap-free stainless steel construction.

• A loose-fitting stainless steel lid.

• Strong, rigid carrying handles.

• A generous 43cm internal diameter.

Together, these features make it a robust and practical tank for regular honey processing.
