The detailed extraction process is as follows:

First, the palm fruit needs to be peeled off the palm fruit bunch, because the whole palm fruit bunches can't be pressed directly. To save money, you can separate palm fruit and palm fruit bunches by hands. If you want to improve the separation efficiency, you can buy a palm fruit thresher machine as an extra.

Second, you need to use a pot to cook palm fruit at least 2 hours， this can soft the palm fruit and let palm oil easy to extract out.

Third, put the boiled palm fruit in the palm oil press for squeezing. During the squeezing process, pay attention to check whether the machine runs smoothly. At the beginning, put the palm fruit slowly to prevent the machine from jam. After palm oil press running for a while, gradually speed up the delivery of palm fruit.

Finally, we can get palm oil and the mixture of palm fruit and fibers. You can directly collect the unfiltered crude oil into barrels for sedimentation processing. After a while, you can get relatively clean palm oil which can eat as cooking oil. If you want to get high quality palm oil, you can buy a plate and frame filter to remove the impurities in cude palm oil to obtain pure red palm oil.
