How to make a wax extractor?

[nicksol86]

Any good ideas on how to make a extractor? I've heard a turkey baster might work. Any other ideas? Drill a hole in a 20 ounce pop bottle top and coffee filter on the bottom with duct tape or a clamp?

I found a extractor stainless steel from a buddy. I gotta get it today.

A stainless turkey baster works. Take a look at the stainless sanitary spools for the brewery industry.

I read to not use copper as the taste can leach into your wax. I read to only use stainless steel or a glass extractor

Copper works but you need to keep it free of oxides and if you solder it, don't use lead solder. Glass or stainless don't have those issues.
