We took a 10 frame medium super off our hive a few days ago, and last night I decided to try to extract some honey. We don\u2019t have an extractor, so I just cut the comb and strained all the honey out of one of the frames. It was messy and slow going, but we managed to fill 2 one lb jars, and we let the rest of the honeycomb strain out and managed to get almost another full cup from that!
