Spanish to English Other Cooking / Culinary Olive oil
Tras el batido viene la centrifugación horizontal o decanter, que consiste en la separación la parte líquida; alpechín (agua de vegetación) y aceite, de la parte sólida; MASA (hueso, pulpa,…) como consecuencia de las distintas densidades que tienen los componentes de la aceituna.

After the shaking comes horizontal centrifugation, or decanter, which consists of separating the liquid part; alpechin (vegetation water) and the oil from the solid part; MASS (pit, pulp,...) as a consequence of the different densities of the olive's components.

Entiendo que esa MASA es la trituración de hueso, pulpa y piel).En ese caso, sí es como lo define el Consejo Oleícola Internacional. Dentro de la web, tienes a la izquierda un glosario en los idiomas de los países que lo forman.

Milling


Milling, mixing and extraction

A stainless steel hammer mill presses the olives (this is faster and more hygienic that the old granite millstones). Thus, we obtain a mass consisting of oil and water from the fruit, together with solids (stone, pulp and skin). This mass is mixed at a constant temperature of less than 27ºC (cold).

This mass is then taken to a centrifuge that separates the oil from everything else (stones, pulp, skin and water from the actual fruit). This stage is performed very quickly and at a low temperature and knowing that we will not extract all the oil this way, but the obtained quality makes it worthwhile. This oil can now be consumed.

However, separation is not complete and a further centrifuge operation is required to remove traces of pulp and water.
