HELLO FELLOW HOMESTEADERS AND FRIENDS
I warmly welcome you to my blog post this great weekend, and I hope you've enjoyed your weekend so far. Today, I'd like to walk you through the final step in the process of generating palm oil at home from palm kernels. This procedure is a continuation of the first one I described a few weeks ago.
Like I said in the first parts of these guide on making palm oil, that the purpose of making these palms oil from home is to be self sufficient, providing for my needs and meeting that of my relatives via so few activities, and in the end making these from as proven to be worth it, because when I out into consideration the amount it cost in purchasing 5 liters of palm oil and the amount and effort it cost me in making these, I felt I'm on the winning side.
MAKING PROCESSES
So in making these palm oil, after removing all the palm fruit from it bunch, the next thing to do is to pour the palm fruit into a very big pot, add enough water to soak it up and place on a stove or under a tense heated fire 🔥.
These will heat up for as long as possible till the palm fruit is very soft.
Once that is achieved, we can then pack the cooked palm fruit into a mortal, pound with a pestle till it's mauched.
The we can pack it gradually into a flitter, and raise the oil out of the cooked and mashed palm fruit, by so doing, we would have separate the chaff and kernel nut from the actual possible oil.
After these is don, we'll then pour the water use in raising the pounded palm fruit back on fire, by gradually paying the oily solutions that is on the surface of the water.
When placed on fire, we'll need to leave it there fir as long as possible, depending on the level of the heat coming from the fire.
The oil solutions alongside the water will be on fire, till the water completely dry up, leaving just the palm oil.
By then, we can easily pour our palm oil into any container of our choice, and the palm oil is ready to be serve or use for the cooking of any meal in the house.
After the whole process, I was able to get about five 5 liters of palm oil and few bottles from the three bunch of palm kernel.
And these I believe is a good return.
In my next post, hopefully I'll be sharing:
- The usefulness of the palm fruit chaff.
- The uses of the palm kernel nut.
- How to make a body lotion out of the palm kernel nut.
Thanks for staying with me thus far, I hope you've learn a thing or two from my guide, I look forward to seeing more of you on my blog post, have a blessed and productive experience in all your endeavours.

Nice one, brother. You're definitely on the winning side. Because the prices of things now are... I don't even know what to say about it. That is one of the benefits of being a homesteader. Did you buy the palm fruit, or did you harvest it from your farm?
Thanks for sharing.
That's true, I'm happy I dive into this, because the price of palm oil rise almost daily now.
The palm fruit was harvested from our palm farm, but a bunch of palm fruit is been sold for as low as 500 naira here.

This is truly brilliant.
I just learned how to make palm oil.
It's amazing idea.
In our country cooking oil prices are going higher and higher.
Your home making oil is just healthy and also money saving.
Have a good day friend.
Thanks so much my dear friend, that's is very true, the price is on the rise and one of the benefit of making these palm oil by yourself is that, you're gonna be mindful of making it healthy without letting in any gems or thing that can harm us.
I wish you all the best dear friend.

Wow, you did a really good job making your palm oil in such process, it must have been really stressful but the end product is always worth the stress.
Good job in teaching us how to get palm oil from palm fruit.
Yes it's indeed a stressful activity to engage on, but the final outcome is a blessing that made us forget the stress.
Thanks for staying with me thus far, I wish you all the best.
Ya ya, that's right. I'm coming to get some so I can prepare correct oil rice, hehe. Hope there is pumpkin leaf too? 🤪.
This days, we have found machine that pound this palm fronds and getting the palm oil becomes more easier. I remember those days in the village, chaiii... processing this oil was a weekly job 😂😂😂
I could remember when I last did something like this in the village. Well, I may still give it a try during the Christmas period.
I wish you the best when next you want to try it, it's always a pleasurable experience when you make and plant your own food.
Thank you for sharing this detailed process of extracting palm oil from palm kernel.
We don't have palm tree where I live so this is process is both entertaining and informative. 😊
Btw, I am wondering about the quantity of the palm kernels that you used to produce that 5 liters of palm oil. Also, how long did it take you for the whole process?

You're welcome dear friend, it's good to kñow you find it valuable and entertaining!
And for your questions, I was able to make these five liters of palm oil from 3 bunches of palm kernel
Also the making process took nothing less than 6 days, though that doesn't mean I'll have to be around it always, but, removing from the boiling and separation.
6 days? I never thought it is that long.
I initially thought of the whole process took only a day.
Thanks for answering my question. 😊
It could be less to like 3 or 4 days, but it's all down to how many man power and the amount of time spent with it daily.
Ohh see.
It would seem nice if we could automate most of the process. 😊
That's absolutely right, there are machines that as been use to automate some of the process now, though them are very expensive.
But it'll surely make it faster and reduce the among of days.
These machines must be a must for those who are in serious business of mass producing palm oil for profit.

Very nicely explained process - I have never tasted palm oil but now I am curious.
Wow this is nice. But now the make use of machine to do all this
Oh I didn't even realize, thanks so much for your transparency and accountability.
I appreciate your support and compliment, I hope it'll be sorted soonest.
