Step 6
Place three layers of cheesecloth, one on top of the other, over the bowl. Pour the coconut from the blender onto the cheesecloth.
Step 7
Gather the cheesecloth around the coconut and wring out all of the milk. Discard the cheesecloth and coconut flakes that remain in the cheesecloth.
Step 8
Pour the coconut milk into the jar. Screw the lid tightly on the jar and allow the coconut milk to ferment. According to "Natural Health Remedies," this can be done by placing the jar in a dark place for two days.
Step 9
Move the coconut milk into warm, light area for six to eight hours. According to, "Organic Marin: Recipes from Land to Table," during this time the coconut oil will separate from the coconut milk.
Step 10
Chill the jar in the refrigerator for three hours to allow the oil to solidify.
Step 11
Scoop out the oil with a spoon and place it in a container with a lid. Allow the oil to thaw in a room temperature environment and then use the oil as you choose.
