I just read this on one cold pressed coconut oil website: "Thus it is not subjected to the high temperatures of most other oil extraction systems. It is usually between 45°C (110°F) and 60°C (130°F) immediately before pressing. This is "cold" by oil standards."

If 130 degrees is 'cold' by oil standards, then any cold pressed oil may be overheated by raw standards. It might be a good idea for people that use cold pressed oils to contact manufacturers and find out what the maximum temperature it's heated to. All cold pressed oil means is that they don't apply external heat during the extraction process. However the compaction and friction do still generate enough heat to cook things in many cases!

There are interesting new things to learn everyday! Isn't it wonderful!

Cheers,
Sheryl
