I am new to beekeeping this year and have two hives.  They both seem to
have done well as I have extracted about 110lbs of surplus honey from one
hive and about 50lbs from the other.  I borrowed an extractor from my
cousin to remove the honey.   The first time around everything went well,
I extracted the honey and filtered it through two stainless steel screens
and then heated it up so it would flow better.  The first screen has
approximately 1/16" openings and the second screen openings are closer to
1/64".  The second batch of honey has some fine particulate matter
present in it.  Is there a way to effectively remove this?
 
I would appreciate any pratical help that is out there.
 
Thanks
