Step Instruction What it looks like
1 Start off by pulling frames. Gently wipe the bees off of the frame with your bee brush.
2 Place the frames in a plastic tub, run the capping scratcher over the comb so that you open up every single cell.
3 Place your frames in the extractor (centrifuge).

4 Your honey will come out the spout. Place your strainer between the spout and your food safe container.
5 After you finish uncapping the frames, empty the cappings found at the bottom of your plastic bin into a strainer positioned over a food safe container.
