I don't expect any honey this first year with package bees. Nonetheless, I'd like some tips on extracting without an extractor. It may be some time—if ever—before I invest in such a costly piece of equipment. My foundation is plastic covered with wax—not the best, but free with the kits I purchased. Mind you, I also do not have access to a uncapping knife. I've seen some gravity methods and heard of cutting of the caps with a hot kitchen knife or just an uncapping fork. What's your method? Thanks in advance!
