Have you ever wondered how that rich, fragrant peanut oil on your dining table is made? In this article, we'll take you on a journey to explore the exquisite production process of peanut oil, with a special focus on how baking temperature plays a crucial role in creating that all - important aroma.
The production of peanut oil starts with shelling the peanuts. Once the peanuts are shelled, they are ready to enter the next stages of the process. There are two main methods of producing peanut oil: hot - pressing and cold - pressing.
Hot - pressing involves heating the peanuts before pressing. This method typically yields a higher amount of oil. In fact, it can extract up to 45% of the oil content in peanuts. The oil cake produced from hot - pressing is often used in animal feed production. On the other hand, cold - pressing is done at a lower temperature, usually below 60°C. This method preserves more nutrients in the oil, and the oil cake can be used to make peanut protein powder.
Before the peanuts are pressed, they need to be thoroughly cleaned. Peanut cleaning machines are essential in this step. These machines can remove dirt, stones, and other impurities from the peanuts. A good cleaning machine can increase the purity of peanuts by up to 98%, which directly affects the quality of the final peanut oil product.
Now, let's talk about the star of the show - baking temperature. The baking process is like a magic wand that transforms the flavor of peanuts. When peanuts are baked at different temperatures, a series of chemical reactions occur. At around 120 - 140°C, the Maillard reaction starts to take place. This reaction is responsible for the formation of the characteristic nutty and rich aroma in peanut oil.
If the temperature is too low, the Maillard reaction won't be sufficient, resulting in a less - fragrant oil. On the contrary, if the temperature is too high, above 180°C, the peanuts may burn, producing a bitter taste and reducing the quality of the oil. Our brand has spent years researching and perfecting the baking temperature. We've found that a temperature range of 130 - 150°C is ideal for creating that perfect, long - lasting aroma in our peanut oil.
The crushing stage is another key step in the production process. When peanuts are crushed properly, the cell walls of the peanuts are broken, allowing the oil to be released more easily. By using advanced crushing technology, we can increase the oil yield by about 5 - 8%. This not only improves the efficiency of production but also reduces waste.
During the pressing process, parameters such as pressure and time are carefully adjusted. Our brand uses state - of - the - art peanut oil presses, which can apply an optimal pressure of 30 - 50 MPa to ensure maximum oil extraction. After pressing, the oil cake is further processed. As mentioned before, hot - pressed oil cakes are used for animal feed, while cold - pressed oil cakes are used for making peanut protein powder, fully utilizing every part of the peanuts.
Our brand is committed to the pursuit of professional peanut oil production technology. We understand the complexity and expertise behind every bottle of high - quality peanut oil. Through continuous research and innovation, we ensure that our customers can enjoy the purest and most fragrant peanut oil.
