Disused Olive Oil crusher Stone Grinding Mill wheel grindstone, Hill town in Cyprus
Stone rollers or wheels roll in circles on a slab of granite to grind the olives into a paste. Olive oil extraction is the process of extracting the oil present in the olive drupes for food use. The oil is produced in the mesocarp cells, and stored in a particular type of vacuole called a lipovacuole, , every cell contains a tiny olive oil droplet. Olive oil extraction is the process of separating the oil from the other fruit contents (vegetation water and solid material). This separation is attained only by physical means, , oil and water don’t mix, so they are relatively easy to separate.
