DUE TO ITS HIGH LEVELS OF SATURATED FAT, NUMEROUS HEALTH AUTHORITIES RECOMMEND LIMITING ITS CONSUMPTION AS A FOOD  THE BROAD TYPES OF COCONUT OIL REFINED & UNREFINED Refined Coconut Oil CALLED AS AN “RBD OIL” (REFINED, BLEACHED AND DEODORIZED OIL) NO COCONUT FLAVOR OR AROMA IDEAL FOR DEEP-FRYING ◦ Unrefined Coconut Oil ◦ TERMED AS ‘VIRGIN’ OR ‘EXTRA VIRGIN’ COCONUT OIL ◦ PRODUCED FROM A FRESH COCONUT MEAT ◦ NO ADDED CHEMICALS AND FLAVOR ◦ SAFE TO CONSUME, AND THE NUTRIENTS ARE RETAINED  HOW IS COCONUT OIL EXTRACTED? Let’s see how coconut oil is extracted. Video Source: https://youtu.be/TfvcIOdAkeA HOW IS COCONUT OIL EXTRACTED? HOW ABOUT THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE COCONUT OIL EXTRACTION?  The crude coconut oil is mixed with a degumming agent to remove gums, which can alter the texture and quality of the oil. The oil is washed in water to separate these gums from the oil. *Insert Chemical reaction here*  Sodium hydroxide, or lye, is added to the oil, which forms a soap with free fatty acids in the oil. The oil is then washed with water, removing the soap and free fatty acids. This reduces the risk of rancidity, as free fatty acids are prone to oxidation. *Insert Chemical reaction here*  Following neutralization, the oil is “bleached” by filtering it through an activated clay filter. No bleach is used in this process. The oil is heat-deodorized to remove any remaining coconut scent or taste.  Reducing the coconut meat into fine particles Drying of the kernel to produce copra and drying the grated coconut meat. Compressing the coconut meat to separate the oil. Separation of fine particles and coconut oil from the pressing process.  used in The fresh-wet modified natural fermentation method where coconut milk is diluted with potable water to remove the natural gums which interfere with the natural separation of VCO used to separate the particles and VCO after the settling process. used in The fresh- wet centrifuge method to increase quality of oil.  Fresh kernel of coconut Deshelling Paring Blanching Draining Disintegration Drying Milk Extraction Defatted Desiccated Centrifugation Coconut Powder Filtration Virgin coconut oil (VCO)  copra Degumming Degumming agent Sodium Neutralizing hydroxide / lye Water Washing Activated Bleaching White clay clay filter Deodorization/ Free Fatty Steam Acid(FFA) & Deacidification odor Refined coconut oil Arong | cuyos | Figueroa | Jarina | sanoy Video Located here: https://youtu.be/wZVeJJL3MiA Credit to Engr.
