How is macadamia ternifolia seed oil made?
The production of Macadamia ternifolia seed oil begins with harvesting the macadamia nuts. Once collected, the nuts are dried and cracked to expose the kernel. These kernels are then pressed to extract the valuable oil. Pressing can be done either through cold pressing or hot pressing, depending on the desired final product. Cold pressing retains more of the natural nutrients, while hot pressing can yield a higher oil output.
