The effects of OptiCEPT® at olive oil producer One & Olive in Greece.

Learn how OptiCEPT® improved the organoleptic characteristics of the produced olive oil at Greek producer One & Olive without sacrificing production volume. Above all, OptiCEPT® demonstrated that it can improve the production process by minimizing malaxation time, and this is a game changer.

25⁰C process temperature during 25 minutes of malaxation.

One & Olive is a well-established Greek producer in the area of Kalamata, Peloponnese.

 

It is a family-owned company with operations dating back to 1896. Today the business is run by the 5th generation, has two state-of-the-art production and packaging units in the villages of Manessi and Trikorfo of Southern Peloponnese.

 

One & Olive installed an OptiCEPT® – Twin system based on the LO6 model to treat a capacity of above 10.000 kg/h of olives in the production mill of Manessi.

“OptiCEPT® improved the organoleptic characteristics of the produced olive oil without sacrificing production volume. The oil produced was better in color, fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency, all very important quality factors, but above all OptiCEPT® demonstrated that it can improve the production process by minimizing malaxation time, and this is a game-changer.”

Extraordinary results

The integration of OptiCEPT® in the initial stage of the process, right after the crusher, offers several advantages.

 

At One & Olive we provided the optimum conditions for efficient production, maximum performance, and superior olive oil quality by applying 25⁰C process temperature during 25 minutes malaxation.

✓  Secured extraction volume and improved oil yield

 

✓  Improved productivity

 

✓ Enhanced quality and improved organoleptic characteristics

 

All while maintaining the standard of 25-25 (25° processing temperature, 25 min malaxation).

Processing temperature and malaxing time were reduced to absolutely minimum values which enabled real ´cold milling´ and continuous production process.

 

OptiCEPT® for olive oil extraction releases more oil at any temperature, this offers the miller flexibility to adjust malaxing time according to the specific characteristics of the local olives and the targeted quality standards of the olive oil produced.

 

Performance evaluation of the results at One&Olive based on samples collected during 4 weeks of continuous production in 2020 – 2021 concluded that malaxation time can be reduced substantially from 45 minutes of the control set down to 5 minutes without affecting the oil yield negatively.

 

This comes as a confirmation of earlier results during OptiCEPT® evaluation at the mills of Agioi Apostoloi and La Balméenne where extraction volume yield was increased even with malaxing time of 25 minutes.

Quality vs Quantity – Not a dilemma anymore

At One & Olive we provided the optimum conditions for efficient production, maximum performance and superior olive oil quality by applying 25⁰C process temperature during 25 minutes malaxation.
