The clean olives are sent to the crusher to the phase of milling. The mill, of modern conception, is equipped by a hammer and moving blades, in order to minimize the possible increase of temperature during the transformation of the olive paste. This system provides that the polyphenol content remain unchanged in the finished oil.
