The important of coconut oil cannot be quantified. Apart from its nutritional value, it also serves as an herbal remedies for many health condition like skin rashes, eczema, swollen skin, sun burn, lip balm e.t.c. Despite all its nutritional and health values, getting the coconut oil unlike the other traditional oil may be a bit expensive. I find it important to share with you how you can extract this oil yourself. Here are the descriptions below which I believe is not too difficult:
)
-Get two coconuts and extract the nut after cracking
-Grind the coconut or better still make use of a blended and blend the coconut into a coarse form
-Soak the grinded coconut in warm water for 30 minutes to one hour. You will notice the water color turning milky.
-Squeeze the grounded coconut and get the sieve milk coconut water into a clean pot and start boiling on a low heat.
-Allow the boiling for some time, like 20-30 minutes.
-You should notice some oil forming on the cooking, start scooping the oil into a clean bowl
-Continue the process of scooping the oil till the milky water look watery.
-Allow the oil to cool and properly separated
There you have it, a self refined coconut oil ready for use.
