Seeds, Nuts and Suitable Applications

Can I use one machine for both mustard and canola oil?

Direct Answer

A suitable oilseed press can process mustard and canola, subject to its approved configuration. Keep the raw materials, production batches and finished-product labels clearly identified.

Detailed Engineering Analysis

Canola denotes low-erucic-acid varieties; it should not be used as a label for any unspecified mustard or rapeseed oil. Obtain the supplier's seed identification and check the required finished-oil specification. Record separate trial settings and yields for each material. Between batches, follow the validated cleaning procedure to limit carryover. Ask MMEC to demonstrate both seeds if both oils are part of your intended product range.
