How is crude linseed oil made?

The production process of crude linseed oil begins with the harvest of flax seeds. These seeds are first cleaned to remove impurities. The clean seeds are then cold-pressed, a process that uses no heat to preserve the natural properties of the oil. This results in a pure, unrefined oil that is rich in nutrients. After pressing, the oil is filtered to remove any remaining solids, resulting in a clear, high-quality crude linseed oil.
