Olive Pressing...

January 13, 2010
All those olives.... this much oil.

On saturday we went to the olive press. When we arrived, the man told us we were late and he was about to close. What we didn't realize was that he wasn't just closing for the day, but for the entire season. Our olives were the last ones pressed this year... so glad we made it just in time. They weighed the olives when we arrived, it was a whopping 204 kilos, and we ended up with about 40 kilos of oil, which works out to be the appropriate ratio (20%). I filmed the olives pressing and will be posting it for the next episode....
