Quality of Crude Coconut Oil Produced
| Parameter | Typical Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Free Fatty Acid (FFA) | ≤ 1.5% | Indicates low acidity and good oil quality |
| Moisture and Impurities (M&I) | ≤ 0.2% | Ensures purity and longer shelf life |
| Iodine Value (IV) | 8 – 12 | Represents the degree of unsaturation, essential for oil quality |
| Smoke Point | 175 – 200°C | Suitable for various cooking and frying methods |
Cold-pressed coconut oil retains more of its natural flavor and nutrients, while hot-pressed oil yields more product with a longer shelf life.
How It Works – Coconut Oil Extraction Process
The coconut oil press machine uses a screw press mechanism to extract oil from dried coconut meat (copra). Here's a typical extraction process:
Pre-treatment: Coconuts are cracked open, and the meat is separated from the shell. The copra (dried coconut meat) is then cleaned and prepared for pressing.
Feeding: The copra is fed into the hopper of the press, where it moves toward the pressing chamber.
Pressing: Inside the chamber, the rotating screw applies continuous pressure to the copra, squeezing out the oil.
Oil separation: The extracted oil flows through narrow filtration gaps, while the remaining dry cake is expelled from the machine.
Filtration (optional): The crude oil can be further filtered to remove impurities, providing higher quality coconut oil.
Cold pressing is often used for virgin coconut oil to retain its natural aroma and nutrients, while hot pressing is typically used for refined coconut oil to achieve higher oil yield.
