from thrown into salad dressing olive oil is an essential
in any modern kitchen ok
a wide variety of grades and flavors are available
but we all have one thing in common no it's not the green bottle it often comes
in
the own lives themselves each typable it has a unique taste
by combining different types the produce a complete in all with an individual
flavor
the process begins at home list the traditional method involves collecting
all issues in tiny weeks
but it's not very efficient for a big court like the one on this phone
and intimated will this tour is used instead the machine surrounds each tree
and literally shakes the olives
the branches
the fresh fruit is collected into a waiting hope ur
along with some leaves and twigs but these can easily be removed later
machine like this conflict is none lives in an hour
as would take the traditional moment to collect in an entire day
when the harvest which is the production plant the fruit has washed to remove
unneeded
leaves or twigs record of in the collection process
the most common twigs and branches that were mainly the filtered out using the
grill
which only allows the fruit to pass through
to get the best quality oil
the fruit should be pressed as soon as possible traditional methods mean
there's a delay between harvesting
on the grinding process the original method also uses big millstones like
these granite wheels to grind both fruit
come the stones into a thick pole
but modern production can easily controls to vital factors
boost the fruit is sent directly from the harvester to the grind is with as
little delay as possible
and second the fruit is growing more gently owns can lose flavor of the fruit
is heated by the friction and grinding
the most sought-after olive oil is called cold poorest

golden color associated with good quality olive oil
I the monomer that is far less aggressive but just as effective
instead of crushing the poll it's spun in a centrifuge love this one
on as it spun around the only passes out through a fine mesh
leading the pope behind I
the oil can be siphoned off and stored while the remaining polled is collected
elsewhere it's not wasted I'll its recently called and can be used as
fertilizer who
animal feed
it may surprise you to know that what it's been pressed olive oil can be
tasted 11
the experience is obviously very different but this is one way the
experts can assess the purity and flavor
of their product pure
unfiltered oil is considered the most valuable if the residues are filtered
out in a centrifuge like this one
what emerges is considered a slightly inferior grade a boil
the standard grade that you would find in the supermarket shelf
is stored in steel tanks like these here
the final residue sink to the bottom and what come down to the end
is a clear on a bowl for the mass market ok
olive oil is usually bottle including alaskans a good reason for this
it helps children home for UV lights the Conchords to deteriorate
