An experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the quality of virgin olive oils obtained when a de-stoner were used for the olive paste preparation in comparison to the use of a traditional stone mill. In order to improve the slightly differences of oil yields due to the use of the de-stoner also a heat exchanger has been introduced in the processing line. The experimental data showed that resistance to the oxidation, total phenols and pleasant volatile compounds were higher in the de-stoned olive oils than in the oils obtained from the whole paste. Resistance to oxidation was assessed by Rancimat method and showed a positive correlation with the amount of total phenols.

Abstract: | An experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the quality of virgin olive oils obtained when a de-stoner were used for the olive paste preparation in comparison to the use of a traditional stone mill. In order to improve the slightly differences of oil yields due to the use of the de-stoner also a heat exchanger has been introduced in the processing line. The experimental data showed that resistance to the oxidation, total phenols and pleasant volatile compounds were higher in the de-stoned olive oils than in the oils obtained from the whole paste. Resistance to oxidation was assessed by Rancimat method and showed a positive correlation with the amount of total phenols. |
