Cool temperatures cause the waxy esters in extra virgin olive oil to solidify. This often happens in the winter, in cool stores or after refrigeration. To return the olive oil to its clear state, warm a pan of water and set the bottle in the pan or leave the olive oil at room temperature. Should extra virgin olive oil solidfy in the refrigerator? The short answer is that some will and some won't. While it would be a convenient and easy test if it were accurate, the refrigerator test is not accurate. The temperature at which an extra virgin olive oil will solidify varies with the ripeness and the varietal of the olive. The only objective test to determine extra virgin olive oil's chemistry as in fact extra virgin is done in a lab. Why does my olive oil have dark sediment at the bottom of the bottle? Dark brown residue is likely pieces of the fruit of the olive in the oil. Napa Valley Naturals extra virgin olive oils are unfiltered so tiny pieces of the fruit of the olive often end up at the bottom of bottles since they are heavier than the oil. If the oil doesn't smell rancid or taste bad, then it's likely not a problem. Sediment is natural and normal in 100% unfiltered olive oils like Napa Valley Naturals. It tends to look like very dark oil at the bottom of bottles. Shake up the bottle and see if it dissipates. At what temperature are Napa Valley Naturals Extra Virgin Olive Oils pressed? Napa Valley Natural Extra Virgin Olive Oils are pressed at temperatures below 98.5 degrees. Our olive oils are pressed at such low temperatures to preserve their flavor and nutritional value. What is the acidity of Napa Valley Naturals Extra Virgin Olive Oils? Napa Valley Natural Extra Virgin Olive Oils have an acidity of .05% or less at the time of bottling. Acidity and quality can be affected by many factors once the olive oil leaves our bottling facility. Temperature and direct bright light during transportation and storage on store shelves can negatively impact the quality of olive oil. How should I store the product? Olive oil and grape seed oil will both maintain their freshness longer if stored in a cool, dark place. Storage in the refrigerator is not recommend. Olive oil will become cloudy and solid and may combine with condensation from the refrigerator. This condensation could negatively affect the taste of the olive oil. Vinegar can be stored in the refrigerator or in the pantry or cupboard. Are your products Kosher? Are your products Certified Organic?
