I'm just getting into beekeeping, and I'm considering equipment options..
Has anyone here used one of these?
http://www.brushymountainbeefarm.com/Multi-Use-Straining-System/productinfo/295/
The description would seem to imply it might be used as a substitute for an extractor. ("You can drain honey from the comb in it.") Is this the case, or am I mis-interpreting? I envision plopping uncapped frames into it, and letting gravity do the work. Am I anywhere close? And if this IS the case, what are the pros and cons of such a system?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
Be well
