• Are all cold pressed oils expeller pressed?
  • All oils that are labeled cold pressed fall under the category of expeller pressed oils. However, it is important to note that the converse is not always true¨Cexpeller pressed oils do not universally qualify as cold pressed oils. As a consequence, cold pressed oils can be categorized as a specialized subset of expeller pressed oils.
  • 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.
  • Are oil bottles cold pressed or expeller pressed?
  • Unless an oil bottle is labeled ¡®cold pressed¡¯ or ¡®expeller pressed¡¯, terms such as ¡®hexane free¡¯ do not ascertain that it is mechanically pressed. Hence, when looking to purchase pressed oils, ensure that the labels explicitly indicate that it is cold or expeller pressed.
  • 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 expeller pressed oil?
  • Expeller-pressed oils are basically oils extracted by a fancy method called expeller pressing. It¡¯s like a giant mechanical press, squishing seeds or nuts to get the oil out. This method doesn¡¯t involve the use of chemicals or heat, but, yes, natural heat is evolved when machinery takes action.
  • What are cold pressed oils?
  • Cold pressed oils are basically oils extracted using a method that¡¯s all about keeping raw seeds cool. They¡¯re made by squishing seeds, nuts, or fruits without cranking up the heat too much ¨C usually, it stays under around 120 degrees Fahrenheit. This way, they hold onto all the good stuff like flavors, nutrients, and antioxidants.
