"How's your success been with the cassette supers?" The picture is one of the cassette super systems. I chose it because it takes less time than the other systems. I put them on, wait a few weeks, and sell them. There are advantages and disadvantages to all the systems, I recommend spending MANY hours reading through the archives on BEE-L, then digesting the info, then experimenting. I have a BSc degree from Cal-Poly in Fruit Science (Pomology) but I can tell you that the archives on BEE-L are worth MUCH more when it comes to beekeeping. P.S., Chris Slade, you asked me one time what to do with cappings to get the honey out. Well, I've almost got an answer, and it is relevant to this thread. :-) Please contact me if anyone has any questions regarding producing comb honey. I haven't got one tenth of one percent the experience of the Old Drones on this board, but I would be thrilled to be able to "give a little back" in the way of experience. Very best Tim Vaughan Acolyte of the BEE-L Masters. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/BEE-L for rules, FAQ and other info --- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
