The use of a empty frame seems to be a good way to get comb honey at the
peak of the honey flow. One time a forgot to put a frame back, was in a
hurry, the built a good comb from the inner cover down to the next frame.
I use what I call the KISS system. (I am only talking to myself when saying
it) KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID. High tech, low tech whatever works I use.
