Often when removing a colony from a home, I save many nice honey combs. When I get home, I put the honey combs into a nylon mesh bag in a plastic pail, mash the combs with a 4" dia. tall jar (have found the tall jar to work best), suspend the mesh bag above the pail, and let the honey drip down into the pail overnight. The way I do it, not every comb gets mashed completely and there is still some honey left in unbroken comb pieces at the end of the dripping period. Does anyone have 'perfect' way to mash the combs completely or to get the honey out of virgin honey comb? I thought about placing the comb bag in an extractor to spin out the rest of the honey but I'm sure the unbalanced weight in the basket will cause the extractor to jolt violently... Thank you.
