Common ways to use Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is found in oil form. It is typically a solid with a low melting point, but when refined, it can become a liquid. You may find it as a carrier oil, in tinctures, in body and skin care products, and more.
How Coconut Oil is made
Coconuts are in season all year long. You will find them in groups ranging in size from 5-12; one tree can produce over 100 coconuts a year. Coconut Fruit or Nut is harvested right around every 45 days. The coconut oil comes from the white, meaty part of the coconut. Once the coconut is cracked, it is quickly used to make oil. This is done one of two main ways: Heat pressed or cold pressed. Heat-pressed can produce more oil, but cold-pressed can produce higher-quality oil. The kernel is deshelled, and the white, meaty part is ground up. After that, it is dried. It is then pressed to expel the oil from the flesh. The final step is to filter the oil to get all impurities out.
