Rapha Virgin Coconut Oil
A Product of Dominica
Presented by:
Mr. Delbert Telemaque
Production Manager
1(767)616-2166
OUR PRODUCT
BMC Rapha Virgin Coconut Oil
is extracted from mature coconuts
without the use of deodorization, heat,
bleaching, additives or any other
chemical processing, making it natural.
Our product comes from Fresh Dominican
Matured Coconuts
PRIMARY MATERIAL REQUIRED
1 Litre = 17 Matured Coconuts
It is assumed that to produce 1 litre of
Virgin Coconut Oil,
7 kg of dehusked coconut is required
which is around 17 Matured Coconuts.
OUR PROCESSING METHOD
The main difference between ordinary coconut oil and
Virgin Coconut Oil is the process of extraction.
Rapha Virgin Coconut Oil is produced using
the Cold Process Method.
No heat is applied during extraction.
The absence of heat during extraction is very important,
because this preserves the lauric acid and the medium chain
triglycerides content of the oil.
STEP 1: DEHUSKING OF COCONUTS
Dehusking: Husk is removed
manually.
Husked Coconuts are usually
bought from Coconut Farmers.
STEP 2: DESHELLING OF HUSKED COCONUTS
Deshelling – involves the removal
of the brown shell from the
husked nut in order to free the
fresh kernel. We do this with the
use of a Deshelling Machine.
The machine allows for Two (2) Factory
Worker to Deshell at a time.
STEP 3:
Washing and Cutting of Nuts
This process is done Manually.
Coconuts are cut into 4 - 8 pieces
for processing through the
Grinding Machine
The brown skin is NOT removed
STEP 4:
Grinding
Grinding – The pieces of coconut
kernel is grinded into grated /
shredded coconut.
An factory worker is required to
feed the pieces into the machine
during the grinding process.
STEP 5: Milk Extraction/ Separation
Milk extraction/ Separation –
After grating or shredding the
fresh kernels, the milk is
extracted using the Milk
Extracting Machine.
Extracted coconut milk is then left to settle in a 2:1
ratio solution for a designated amount of time and
temperature
STEP 6: Filtration of Virgin Coconut
Oil
This coconut milk is placed into
fermenting containers and left to
sit for separation.
The cream rises to the top, the oil
in the middle and the water at the
bottom.
Filtration of the oil – the oil is
separated from the cream and
water manually
STEP 6:
Packaging and Storage
Packaging and Storage -- Glass
Bottles are used for packaging. The most appropriate packaging for Virgin
Coconut Oil is glass bottles in tropical
climates and wide mouthed glass jars in
temperate climates.
This is especially important if the VCO
is to be sold in stores where it might
stay on the shelves for long periods

My presentation is based on virgin coconut oil and heated processed oil.
The old fashion way is maintained in this process.
25 dried nuts are selected and peeled by hand.
The nuts are cracked open by hand and a knife is used to get the coconut from the shell.
It is then washed and placed in a large container for grinding.

In the blender, water is added to the coconut for better grinding and then placed into a strainer to drain the milk out. The

What is placed in the processor is with no water but water is added to the remains for squeezing or passed through a blender
again for a find grinding.
