What is the best time to perform the analysis?
Immediately following extraction
El mejor momento para analizar tu aceite de oliva es justo después de la extracción, en su momento de máxima calidad. Esto te garantizará obtener los mejores resultados posibles sobre la calidad del aceite.
Should I repeat the analysis?
The frequency of analysis is contingent upon multiple variables, such as the oil variety, storage conditions, and local mandates. Typically, it is advised to conduct assessments every 3 to 6 months for extra virgin olive oil and annually for virgin olive oil.
What are the parameters used for?
Acidity Index
The acidity index is a parameter that signifies the amount of free fatty acids present in the oil. An appropriate value is crucial for the quality of olive oil.
Peroxide Index
The peroxide value assesses the peroxide content in the oil, which can signify its freshness and degree of oxidation.
Absorbancia (K270 y K232)
The absorbance values K270 and K232 are employed to gauge light absorption in the oil and assess its quality and stability.
Delta 7
The Delta 7 parameter pertains to the concentration of ethyl esters in the oil and serves as an indicator of its quality and fragrance.
Ethyl Esters
Esters are compounds that enhance the flavor and aroma of olive oil. Measuring them is crucial for assessing the oil's organoleptic quality.
Pesticide Residues
Impurities in the oil can impact its purity and quality. A low residue content is desired for high-quality oils.
Phenolic Compounds (Polyphenols)
Polyphenols assist in determining the preservation and the optimal harvest time for oils. They serve as an indicator of the oil's freshness.
Organoleptic Assessment
The organoleptic assessment involves the sensory evaluation of the oil by a tasting panel, thereby determining its various nuances and taste quality.
