My new hive wasn’t strong enough going in to spring to add honey supers on, but I did add a second ‘deep’ hive box to give them room for expansion. I’m glad I did because they almost filled it up with honey! I pulled 2 frames out for myself. I didn’t use any special equipment, just scraped the honeycomb into a bowl, strained out the wax, then heated the wax and let it cool. My end result was 4.5 pints of raw honey, 1 pint of cooked honey and a small chunk of wax.
