COLD PRESSING
Tłoczenie na zimno to proces pozyskiwania oleju z
nasion
,
owoców
lub ziaren bez użycia wysokiej temperatury czy rozpuszczalników chemicznych. Jest to metoda preferowana ze względu na zachowanie naturalnych właściwości i składników odżywczych oleju. Surowiec, czyli nasiona lub owoce, jest najpierw mielony na pastę, zwykle w młynie walcowym. Następnie ta pasta jest poddawana procesowi tłoczenia w prasie hydraulicznej lub śrubowej, która wytwarza nacisk, wyciskając olej z masy surowcowej.

During cold pressing, the temperature usually does not exceed 40°C, which is crucial for preserving nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids. As a result, cold-pressed oils are characterized by higher quality, deeper flavor and aroma, as well as better nutritional properties compared to refined oils.

However, it should be remembered that this process is more time-consuming and less efficient than refining methods, which can affect the higher price of the final product. Cold-pressed oils are best stored in a cool, dark place to avoid oxidation and spoilage. This method is particularly popular in the production of oils such as olive oil, flaxseed oil, hemp seed oil, or sesame oil, where preserving the flavor and nutritional profile is a priority.
