The kernel never sees the sun or a kiln, so the oil is paler, milder and keeps more of its natural antioxidants. This is the grade people buy for babies, for skin and for uncooked use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"blk\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow we make it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFresh mature kernel is grated and pressed for milk the same day it is opened. The milk is left to separate and the oil drawn off cold — no external heat, no drying step, no solvent. Because nothing is dried, there is no smoky or musty note; virgin oil smells faintly of fresh coconut rather than strongly of copra. Yield is much lower than copra pressing, which is why it costs more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"blk\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat goes in, what stays out\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne ingredient: fresh coconut. No copra oil blended in, no bleaching, no deodorising, no fragrance.

Copra pressing extracts oil from kernel that has already lost most of its water.

Refined oils have silicone-based additives that stop this; unrefined oil does not, so it froths, particularly in humid weather. It is a sign of what is absent. If it bothers you, drop a small ball of tamarind into the hot oil for a minute and the foam settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil contain trans fats or cholesterol?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo hydrogenation is used, so there is no industrially produced trans fat, and no plant oil contains cholesterol.
