using a centrifuge. By processing this way, there is no bleaching,
additives or high heat used. The coconut oil maintains its natural tropical
aroma and delicious taste.
A Note on Extraction Methods
Once you have decided on refined or unrefined, you have to decide on
method of extraction, of which there are three: cold-pressed, expeller-
pressed and centrifuged. Because all three of these methods are used in
both refined and unrefined varieties, you need to know the
difference.
Expeller-pressed and cold-pressed does not always mean “raw.” The oil
can be heated to a rather high temperature during the extraction process.
The higher the heat the more “toasted” the oil will taste. Centrifuged oil is
not exposed to as high a heat so it will taste more mild and sweet. If you
use coconut oil for cooking you may prefer the taste of the centrifuged oil.
Just be sure, no matter what, that you always purchase organic virgin
coconut oil.
