• What is an oil expeller press?
  • French custom designs, manufactures and supports oilseed preparation equipment and screw presses, sometimes referred to as oil expeller presses. These oil extraction machines gather vegetable oil from oil-bearing seeds and nuts for food and industrial uses, including biodiesel and other fuels.
  • What is the difference between expeller pressed and cold pressed oil extraction?
  • The difference between expeller pressed vs cold pressed oil extraction is that during the latter process, the fruit/nuts/seeds are pressed using either a bladder press (used with softer fruits), hydraulic press, or low resistance expeller pressing so as not to exceed the 122¡ãF temperature requirement.
  • How does an expeller press work?
  • An expeller press or ¡°screw press,¡± is a machine that presses seeds and nuts through a cavity and uses intense friction and pressure to extract oil. During this process, there isn¡¯t any added heat but since the seeds are pressed using friction, heat is created (around 140-210? F). Once the seeds are pressed, the oil is removed.
  • What is the difference between an expeller press and a cold press?
  • Typically, when these ingredients are pressed, they are at a much lower temperature (122? F) compared to an expeller press. Note: Unlike oilseed presses, absolutely no heat is used when making cold-pressed oils with one of Goodnature¡¯s cold-press machines.
  • What is the difference between expeller pressed oil and solvent-extracted oil?
  • Expeller-pressed oils can also be RBD and/or winterized the same as solvent-extracted oils (physical or chemical). Expeller pressing removes about 87-95% of the oils from the nuts/seeds, making it the second most efficient. Cold-processed oils cannot exceed 122¡ãF during the extraction process.
  • Is the Anderson super duo expeller? good for cold pressing?
  • The Anderson Super Duo Expeller? utilizes two presses in a single pass to extract oil more efficiently, making it ideal for cold pressing. But just because there¡¯s no external heat added in cold pressing doesn¡¯t necessarily mean there¡¯s no heat involved.
