[QUOTE="AdamD, post: 1164, member: 173"] In the UK, stainless steel or food grade is a must and not a problem at all, although I still see galvanized extractors for sale on ebay now and again. I have a dedicated extraction room myself, however a kitchen is OK for small-scale hobbyists, provided you don't have dirty laundry and such-like lying around around. That's reasonable as "Honey infused with jock-strap" is probably not going to be a best-seller! The beekeepers name and address has to be on the jars so there's tracability and we do have regulations on the size of text for the weight of honey in the jars! We do have a reasonable Trading Standards system in place, so I have had honey that's been anonymously purchased from a shop and then tested, with the results sent to me afterwards. [/QUOTE]
