Here is a video of our extraction process in our garage. We use a hot knife and utility sink for uncapping and recently bought a 10 frame SS tank. We have a Maxant 1400PL, 10 deep frame extractor and a Maxant 300 24 inch hot water jacketed clarifier. The honey goes into 5 gallon buckets with a bucket nylon filter.
