Description
Step-by-Step Process:
- Selection of Coconuts:
- Mature, high-quality coconuts are handpicked, dehusked, and broken to extract the white kernel.
- Sun Drying (Optional):
- The Groundnut kernels (copra) may be sun-dried for a few days to remove excess moisture, depending on the desired oil texture.
- Grinding:
- The dried coconut pieces are placed into a traditional wooden press (Marachekku) made of Vaagai (Indian wood), which helps retain the oilâs natural properties.
- Slow Cold Pressing:
- A wooden pestle is rotated slowly (usually by a bull or motor at low RPM) to press the oil out of the coconut, without generating heat. This cold-pressing process ensures that the nutrients and aroma remain intact.
- Natural Filtration:
- The extracted oil is left to rest, allowing impurities to settle at the bottom. It is then filtered without chemicals or additives.
- Storage:
- The oil is stored in clean, food-grade containers, ready to be used for cooking, skin, hair care, or Ayurvedic purposes.
