About Us and our Production

 

Ahmet Uysal Oil Mill was founded on October 29, 1927, by Ahmet Uysal Çakaloğlu in Hıdırbeyli village, Germencik, Aydın. Our family's ties to olive oil have remained unbroken for nearly a century and have survived to the present day. As an ancestral legacy, we continue with all our strength to bring our products to the tables of the world.

Product processing at this historic facility continues as follows in brief:

Oil Mill;

-Entry/yard, harvesting and delivery  
-Olive crushing / olive paste preparation
-Internal section / bagging the olive paste for pressing and placing it into the press
 consists of sections.

 

In the traditional method, the olive paste obtained by grinding with rotating roller stones is taken to the paste holding section in the pressing part. Stone cylinders that rotate with animal power are the ancient way. The resulting olive pulp is placed in the bristle bags in the inner section. The bristle bags stacked on top of each other are placed in presses, and the olive pulp is separated from the pulp by squeezing with human power, known as "bodurgeç". In the meantime, the bags are lowered from the press twice and water is given at a temperature of 40-50 degrees Dec. The leaked oil flows from there to the waiting scales and rests here.

The work at the facility was later converted to the crane method and is carried out by a team of four people. The water needs of the facility are supplied from two water wells in the courtyard.Jul. Later, 4 cylinders were turned into stone motorized. Our simultaneous use of human and animal power is based on the principle of efficiency.

Previously illuminated by large candles hung from the ceiling and glazed gas lamps, yağhane began to use carbide lamps when carbide stone arrived in Turkey. Later, sailor's lanterns were introduced. Our oil mill, renewed with the loyalty we feel for our roots, continues its operations using the latest technologies and preserves the legacy of our ancestors.
