Coconut Oil Extraction: Cold Process
B. COMMENTS ON PROCEDURE
Coconut oil has many great properties that can be beneficial for human whether it
is consumed, or applied to the skin. I realized that the extraction of coconut oil from raw
coconut is far easier and simpler than I thought. The extraction processes take advantage
of the difference of properties within the constituents of coconut milk. Properties like how
coconut water evaporates in lower temperatures than oil, or that coconut oil tends to float
and set above the coconut water when subjected to lower temperature. With that in mind,
the actual process of extracting coconut oil from coconut milk is pretty easy compared to
getting coconut milk from raw coconut since that requires elbow grease.
