Precautions
The device is intended for domestic use only.
The maximum operating time of the device is 30 minutes, then turn off the device and leave the motor to cool down for at least 20 minutes.
The device has an emergency overheating protection. In case of overheating when the maximum operating time of 30 minutes is exceeded, the device will automatically shut down. In this case, remove the plug from the socket, disassemble the wringer part of the oil press, clean it and let the engine cool down. The device can be used in 40-50 minutes.
Do not pour liquid or water into the loading chamber installed on the motor housing.
Raw materials intended for use
The device is designed to extract oil from products such as sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, rapeseed, peanuts, etc. with an oil content of 30% and more.
Products such as amaranth or soy are not suitable for pressing oil in this machine as they contain very little oil.
The machine is not suitable for extracting oil from wheat germ.
Large nuts (walnuts, etc.) must be crushed into pieces about the size of a sunflower seed before pressing. Do not grind the ingredients to a finer fraction than the above mentioned sunflower seed size!
Milk thistle, black sesame, mustard, hemp
White sesame, Brazil nut, sunflower,
Assembly. part name
Externally, the assembled oil press looks like this
Now let's see what elements the device consists of.
The body on which the loading chamber-hopper for seeds, nuts is installed
A hopper is installed on the body, and a lid on it
The lid and body have a "correctly assembled sensor" which gives a signal when the instrument is assembled correctly and all contacts are in place. If the hopper cover is opened while the device is in operation, the oil press will turn off.
Then there is the "squeeze basket lock", a very important element of the oil press,
under which there is an auger, through which oil is squeezed out of seed-nuts.
The device is connected to the network via a cable
There are three control buttons on the instrument panel:
- left - ON / OFF
- medium - REVERSE
- right - START / PAUSE
Under the front cover of the squeezing basket, at the very right end, there is a heating element that heats the seeds-nuts during squeezing the oil, but the temperature does not exceed 35-40 * C, the optimum temperature for squeezing the oil.
Below, under the front cover of the squeeze basket, there are two holes:
- left - hole for oil outlet
- right, closer to the edge - a hole for the cake outlet
there is even an inscription on the panel: oil and cake.
Two baskets are placed under the front cover of the squeeze basket
- a container for oil with a strainer
- container for cake
oil enters the container through a sieve, which additionally filters the oil from various small particles and foam. Only a fine suspension passes through the sieve, a sediment, which takes place in some nuts. Subsequently, the oil settles in the cold, and the sediment falls to the bottom of the container, the oil becomes transparent.
The auger together with the squeezing basket is rigidly fixed to the device body. And in order to remove the auger from the device, it is necessary to remove the loading chamber-bunker from the device, and unlock the device, for which you need to transfer the "squeeze basket lock" from the closed state "lock icon closed" to open state "lock icon open"
Rubberized legs are installed on the base of the appliance, which allow the appliance to stand firmly, not to slip on the surface of the tabletop
Exploitation. oil extraction
Prepare seeds or nuts in advance. For example, I'll take sunflower seeds. Sunflower oil, pressed on a home oil press
Assemble the oil press completely, prepare it for work. Insert the auger under the front cover. Place containers for oil and cake under the auger. Connect the device to the network.
Open the lid of the loading chamber-hopper, add seeds. Close the lid of the loading chamber-bunker tightly, in this case the blocker should work, a signal will sound.
Press the "On / Off" button, let it warm up and reach the operating temperature on the "front cover of the squeeze basket", while the red indicator light on the button will flash. Be very careful, the lid will heat up, it is better not to touch it with your hands. Heating is not strong, the hand suffers, but it is better to know about it.
The oil press will reach operating temperature in about 1 minute and will be ready to extract oil, the red button will stop blinking and the color will change to green calm.
Now you need to press the "Start / Pause" button, and the oil press will start working, the oil will drain directly into the oil container
If there are no nuts-seeds in the loading chamber-hopper for 1 minute, the device will automatically stop and the indicators will start slowly blinking red.
If the oil extraction process is over, then you need to turn off the device with the "On / Off" button.
If you need to add another portion of nuts-seeds, you can remove the bunker cover (and the device will turn off, the blocker will work), fill in the seeds, close the bunker cover. And then press "On / Off" again to continue the process.
Warning:
If the nuts or seeds are too large and the feed chute of the loading chamber is clogged, the appliance will automatically stop.
Seeds and nuts that are too wet, ingredients ground to a flour condition, and particulate matter can block the auger. In this case, first press the “Start / Pause” button and then press and hold the “Reverse” button for at least three seconds. The auger turns in the opposite direction and unlocks.
In my example, the result is about 150 ml. sunflower oil and about 360 grams of dry fat-free meal-cake.
The sunflower seed oil is very thick, strongly "suspended" by the sediment. Therefore, I always let the oil settle for about a day in order to get the pure oil and sediment separately.Pour the oil into a clean dish. I leave the sediment in a separate bowl and use it in salads.
SUMMARY:
- the yield of pure oil is small, with 500 grams of seeds, the yield is about 150 ml. oils.
- the taste of the oil is excellent, there is a smack and smell of fried seeds.
- there is foaming when frying in a pan, but it went out quickly.
- I made a decision for myself, to use oil only from salads, with such a solution you will not really run away to use it in cooking.
- You need to use somewhere a large amount of meal-cake, found a way out, put the cake into the production of lean halva.
Care and cleaning of the oil press
Now you can disconnect the device from the network. Now we will disassemble the oil press in order to clean it inside from the remnants of meal and oil. It is necessary to clean the oil press immediately after pressing the oil, turning off the device, while the meal is still warm inside, and it is convenient to remove it from the auger. If this is not done in a timely manner, the meal will cool down and may be compressed tightly, and then it will take a lot of effort and time to remove its inner part from the auger.
- remove the basket-bunker from the base of the device
- set the squeeze basket lock to the open position, move the slider to the "basket open" icon
- lift up the front cover of the squeeze basket
- remove the auger by pulling it towards you. The parts can be hot; for this purpose you need to use the protective glove supplied with the device.
- clean the auger and the front cover of the device using a brush (included in the delivery set) and a soft cloth. You can also clean with warm water and mild dishwashing detergents.
- after cleaning, simply dry all parts on the table.
WARNING:
- Do not use coarse sponges, metal tools, knives, scissors and other aggressive cleaning agents such as alcohol, gasoline, acetone to clean the device.
- do not immerse the engine body in water, do not wash it under running water.
- Do not wash the device and its parts in the dishwasher.
What to do with the cake, application
After the oil is squeezed out on the oil press, there is a lot of cake-meal, and something needs to be done with it.
Here, each type of cake must be approached individually. EG:
Flaxseed cake is suitable for preparing snacks, adding to yoghurts, salads.
Mustard cake has a strong smell (like mustard), soft, it can be used in sauces, for making mustard.
The Brazil nut cake is small, grains, fatty, and is suitable for sprinkling on porridge, for preparing vegetable milk.
Hemp cake has a very specific taste and smell (unlike the oil itself), this cake did not fit anywhere with me.
Chia seed cake is great for sprinkling on cereals, yoghurts, puddings, and snacks.
Pine nut cake is very fatty, fine, perfect for vegetable milk, for sprinkling in porridge and yoghurts.
Milk thistle cake is very coarse, dry, use it if only in decoctions, since milk thistle has a strong effect on the gastrointestinal tract system, liver, pancreas.
Sunflower seed cake was perfect for "Lean sunflower halva with raisins and cranberries"
Where else to apply oil
In this topic, I have already described the use of home-pressed oil in cosmetology My experience of home pressing vegetable oil, its application and use # 4
For example:
Black Sesame Oil is used instead of a cream. Apply well at night. It can also be added to creams, cleansing milk, lotions, tonics, gels, facial cleansers and other cosmetics.
Black sesame oil in cosmetology is used to smooth out the skin of the face, which has various spots, scars and scars left after acne treatment.
Raw material quality and oil quality
The quality of pressing the oil is greatly influenced by seeds, nuts, their quality, types and their properties, the ability to squeeze.
For example:
- walnut spin efficiency (efficiency) 36-42%
- rapeseed 23-30%
- flax 30-34%
- sunflower 40-46%
- sesame seeds 37-45%
- peanuts 36-42%
The quality of pressing is influenced by the quality of seeds, their freshness. There are cases when initially grain-seeds are sold that have already undergone primary processing, that is, oil has already been squeezed out of them by the method of "solvent extraction of oil from oilseed material". In practice, we buy seeds intended simply for eating, or re-pressing the oil, the quality of which will be low and in the smallest volume. This can be compared to decaffeinated coffee, when the coffee beans are whole and there is little caffeine in them.
The quality of pressing and the amount of pressed oil are also influenced by the properties of the nuts themselves.
The quality of oils such as walnuts, pine nuts, Brazil nuts will have a high percentage of fat (up to 20-30%) and a large suspension of sediment, which will settle slowly, and the amount of pure oil will be small.
Or flax or chia seed oil, which gives excellent results, and the oil yield is very good, with 500 grams of seeds, the yield is approximately 150-180 grams.
There are very dry seeds, such as milk thistle, the oil is squeezed out well, but the oil yield is less, with 800 grams of seeds, the yield is about 200 grams.
All these nuances and subtleties are learned only in the process of practical use of the oil press, with experience of which and where to buy seeds-nuts, and what can be expected specifically from each type of seeds-nuts.
