Why is tea oil so expensive?
In fact, the reason why tea oil is expensive is mainly the raw material "Camellia oleifera fruit". Camellia oleifera oil is extracted from Camellia oleifera seeds in virgin forests and taken from nature. There is no pollution of pesticides, fertilizers, soil, air and water at all, not to mention transgenic and aflatoxin. Camellia oleifera grows slowly and has a long growth cycle, and its age is as high as thousands of years. It takes about 5~7 years from sowing to fruiting, and more than 15 years to complete fruiting, with low yield and less artificial cultivation; What is even more peculiar and rare is that it takes more than 13 months for the fruit of Camellia oleifera to mature, which makes the flowers and fruits on the same Camellia oleifera coexist, commonly known as "holding the child", which is extremely rare in the plant kingdom.
Because camellia oleifera fruit is too scarce, the price of camellia oleifera naturally rises.
Generally speaking, this year's camellia oil is generally around 60 yuan, and the price of camellia oil on the market is around 40~ 120 yuan. Experts have said that the cost of camellia oil is around 40 yuan, and too cheap camellia oil is unreliable. It is not advisable to buy things only by looking at the price, especially tea oil. We should pay more attention to the efficacy and quality of tea oil.
How to extract tea oil
extract oil
Tea oil is basically extracted from tea seeds by pressing. The traditional oil pressing in rural areas of China is wood pressing, which has high labor intensity and low oil yield. It will be gradually replaced by hydraulic press and screw machine.
Crushing and cooking are required before pressing:
(1) crushing: hulling camellia oleifera seeds. In order to avoid the difficulty of hulling and excessive crushing of seeds, the water content of Camellia oleifera seeds must be controlled within 5%-6%, and after hulling, it will be processed into powder by a pulverizer. If a stone mill is used, it must be sieved several times in the rolling process, so that the rolling can be uniform without coarse particles and higher oil yield can be obtained.

② Steaming and frying: The purpose of steaming and frying is to turn raw meal into clinker, so that the color of the green body is deepened and it is in the most suitable state for oil outflow, which is the key process before pressing. The traditional steaming and frying methods are wooden steamer and iron pan frying. The raw meal is wetted by steam or water spray before frying, which is called "wet steaming frying"; Stir-frying without water is called "dry steaming", and generally "wet steaming" is better. The humidity and temperature during steaming and frying vary with the type of machine used. With oil press and wood press, the frying temperature is generally11kloc-0/20℃, and the moisture content after steaming and frying is 7%-8%. When using screw press, the frying temperature is generally 130- 140℃, and the water content after steaming and frying is 3%-4%.
