hey guys just an update and to closed this off.. the method of leaving thick honey in a warmer room temperature eg glass house.. after that pour honey into a cone filter sleeve and squeeze off the honey. it work for me as I was very tempted to wrap up my honey extraction.. many thxs for all input!

Ok I placed the honey bucket in my hot house and came home today noticing the honey is much loosen up.. but the wax deposits cloaked up the mesh and not much honey been dripped through.. I might need to switch over to my cone mesh filter tomorrow to see if draining will be better! Hey that wax presser from trademe look good! Thxs very much?

Thxs u Trevor.. iam doing it in my garage and it not that warm either, I guest I will have to relocate the honey to somewhere that warmer then.. hey what about using a fish tank heater dipping it in the honey? Clean heater of course! Would the heat kill the raw honey chemistry??

Now I’ve mixed my thick squeeze honey together with the loose honey and let it filtered..3/4 of the honey filter through but the rest just sit still in the drainer and too thick to drips through..!! Could some body please send me advice how
