This thread is updated to FTB Unleashed. some of the methods won't work on ultimate.

Ok. so you may watching Direwolf20 or just know the most simple method: The apiarist's pipe.
But the apiarist's pipe is one of the most difficult methods to automate bees at the begining. Because you need to get 2 propolis for 1 automation. and it's hard.

So, without further ado:

Method 1: Diamond Transport Pipe
Diamond transport pipe always weren't precise. So you can put this specie with different mutations (as long as it's not analyzed).

The configuration of the pipe:

So, that was the diamond pipe method. but there's another one, even cheaper.
Method 2: Insertion pipe (Apiaris only)
Since 1.5.2, there's a insertion pipe. this is a pipe that will first try to send down, if it won't be able to, it will send to another direction (Random).

I think that the insertion pipe is the best option. You cannot put it under the apiary so don't use it if you like decoration in your bee room. But it's cheap, and you don't need to configure it.



so, that was it for now. Of course there are about 5 or 6 more methods, like AE, logistics pipes, and the apiarist's pipe, but the methods in this guide are the cheapest and the easiest.
