<pre>hyde252001 asks if olive oil needs refining? Only if the acidity is above
the levels for extravergine or vergine oil. That is 1 or 2% It is best left
to the big guys for a couple of reasons. One the chemistry needs to be exact
and secondly the low grade oil that is produced after refining is best sold
under a big brand name in a supermarket. If your oil fails to meet the
extravergine or vergine standards I would advise you to sell it in bulk and
leave someone else to do the refining.

The important issue is why do you have such a high acidity? Late picking
will increase acidity. Keeping the olives for a long period between harvest
and processing will increase acidity particularly if temperatures are high.
Poor processing will increase acidity. It is most important to isolate the
cause and try to avoid the same mistake next year.

Cheers Brian Chatterton.
