Do the Family Press too Mindzeye..?
All my Homework says that the Most Valuable form Medically of Olive Oil would be first press but with some of the Olive particles left In suspension..before it is Cleaned up.
Interestingly..one of the homeworks I hit said that the highest % of what we Want from Olives is present in the Water they steep the Olive in before it is processed..and that is just thrown away for the most part.
Brilliant thread Musturd..."kudos"
My family doesn't press but we do get invited to farms regularly for their pressing. Most of these farms don't press the olives more than once. My favorite oil is straight off the press. During November and December I will only eat oil that was pressed the prior day. The harvest has a lot to do with what's in the oil also. The farmers hold the first harvest oil as the best. I have no clue about the water....
If you want what I think is the best oil look up Olivas De Oro I know that family well they have a beautiful farm and some of the highest quality oil, I think they have a website to order from if your interested
