Virgin coconut oil,also called VCO,is the oil extraced from the premium fresh coconut milk by centrifuge method. Its cold pressed to retain the fresh aroma and mild taste of coconut mik. VCO is essentially water-clear or colorless.
Production Description
VCO cold pressed line from SOLID company is by centrifuge separation for VCO,Protein and water from coconut milk. the de-shelled meat is first washed with copious amount of water and then milled.The coconut milk after its extraction is mixed with one portion of hot water and is fed into the centrifuge. The cloudy oil that comes out of the centrifuge is again mixed with the second portion of hot water and fed again into the centrifuge for a second pass. The final oil is filtered to remove any solid particles and vacuum dried to afford water clear VCO.
The core steps VCO production comprises of fresh coconut meat washing;coconut meat grinder;spiral juicer;centrifuge separation;vacuum drying,filtration and packing etc.
