It is completely safe to feed as a supplement for most classes of livestock. PKE is a quality stock feed containing high levels of crude protein and medium energy levels. Cold Pressed Expeller extracted oil has a more “coco-nutty” aroma and taste, due to the presence of significant heat in the extraction process. Palm Kernel Expeller (PKE) is a by-product of the palm oil extraction process from the fruit of the palm.The term “Cold-Pressed” is to differentiate the final pressing method at around 48C, from a previously used “Hot-Pressed” method which heated the coconut to more than 100C. In the Cold Pressed method, ground coconut meat is passed through a hot-air dryer before being pressed, the dryer may heat the coconut up to 80C.
Centrifuge extracted oil has a mild aroma and delicate taste, due to the absence of significant heat in the extraction process.The temperature during the entire process is monitored to be under 38C. It requires quite a few passes through the centrifuge to obtain pure oil. In the Centrifuge method the coconut meat is finely spun and the milk and oil separate, much in the same way cream separates from dairy milk. So what is the difference between Centrifuge (Cold Processed) and Expeller (Cold Pressed) methods: The oil expeller has a size of 13 cm x 6 cm x 20 cm (L x W x H) and a weight of 2.3 kilograms. It is safe for expelling oil from seeds or nuts with an oil content of at least 25 and a moisture content of more than 8.

With the advent of good quality Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), like centrifuged Virgin Coconut Oil, the “coco-nutty” aroma is now starting to be recognised as a contamination of the oil due to excessive heating during processing. The portable oil expeller is made to be food-contact safe and meets EC regulations. This is mainly because the first products of coconut involved significant heating, and thus the existence of this aroma. In the early years of coconut oil production the "coco-nutty" aroma was commonly associated as natural to the coconut. When coconut meat or milk is significantly heated at any point in the extraction process it results in a stronger “coco-nutty” flavour and aroma, this "coco-nutty" aroma does not exist in fresh coconut meat. There are many ways to extract the oil from coconuts, some use heat, others are cold processed. Virgin Coconut oil in its natural state has a mild aroma, delicate taste and silky thin consistency.
