Is it normal to find sediment in cold-pressed oil?

Some oils are refined after their pressing. Behind the concept of refinement there lies a whole series of chemo-technical procedures. All these procedures serve one purpose in particular: without considering losses the rapeseed oil is optimized for trade and industrial processing, or as the food industry affectionately calls it, the oil is being "improved". The result of these procedures is a bright and taste-neutral rapeseed oil. Although the oil yield is much higher because of these procedures, nevertheless, valuable ingredients get lost.

Our oils are not refined. Therefore, one will always find sediment (solid components, turbidities and suspended sediments) at the bottom of the oil vessels. Those pressing residues bear witness to the naturalness of our oils. Sediments do not in any way affect the oil’s quality. Yet a share of pressing residues above average may affect the oil’s characteristics. By shaking the vessel, the sediment will dissolve immediately, but we actually do recommend leaving it at the bottom. Due to the fact, that our oils are mechanically decanted and fine-filtered, those pressing residues can be kept within tenable limits.
