Giving it the squeeze...
I am processing more and more of my honey through a little tabletop wine press. It kinda sucks cause, my God, it takes forever and my kitchen is perpetually sticky, but well worth it!
I'm over forcing my bees on foundation -- predetermined cell size is counterproductive to what the bees know and want to build themselves. Beeple < bee people > LET YOUR BEES BUILD THEIR OWN WAX for crying out loud.
As for filtering, all I use is a utensil consisting of a wire or plastic mesh held in a frame, used for straining solids from liquids, for separating coarser from finer particles, but not separating pollen from honey. Oh,I guess it is generally referred to as a sieve...!
Okay, if you don't believe me, check this out:
