There are various ways of getting the honey from the comb. In olden times the combs used to be broken up and the honey strained off. Today, a beekeeper wants to preserve the combs as far as possible, so the wax cappings over the honeycomb cells are removed, and the combs, in their wooden frames, are put into an extractor. This spins the frames, rather like an upright spin drier, and the honey is thrown out on to the inside wall of the extractor drum. It then drains to the bottom where it is removed through a tap.
