It is also used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry, for religious, industrial and other purposes of various kinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><h2>What types of olive oil are there?<\/h2><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Extra virgin olive oil<\/strong>: This type of oil is not chemically refined and is cold pressed, in such a way that it retains its nutritional and organoleptic properties. The acidity of this oil is below 0.8%.<\/li><li><strong>Virgin olive oil<\/strong>: is the oil obtained from the fruit of the olive tree using only physical \/ mechanical processes. The acidity is usually between 0.8% &#8211; 1.5%..<\/li><li><strong>Common olive oil<\/strong>: Once the lampante oil is refined, using a chemical process, and virgin or extra virgin oil is added (in order to be marketed), common olive oil is obtained. This one acquires an acidity of 1,51% &#8211; 3%. Due to the refining process, the oil has suffered an important loss in aroma, flavor, color and nutritional properties.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Lampante<\/strong>: due to its level of acidity, higher than 3.3%, this type of oil is not suitable for consumption. The use that was given to this type of oil was for lighting.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><h2>What is the acidity of olive oil?<\/h2><\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>acidity of olive oil<\/strong> is a chemical parameter that ensures that all stages of the <strong>oil production process,<\/strong> from harvest to <strong>packaging<\/strong>, have been carried out in compliance with the marked quality standards.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term &#8220;<strong>acidity<\/strong>&#8221; usually makes us associate it with <strong>pH<\/strong>(higher or lower acidity) &nbsp;as in the case of vinegars and may lead us to think that the higher the acidity of the oil, the more intense it will be. <strong>Acidity<\/strong>, when we talk about oil, refers to the amount of free fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, etc.) are <strong>present in the oil.<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Acidity<\/strong>is obtained through an analytical process developed in a laboratory and is the quality parameter that allows to determine how it can be marketed (virgin, extra virgin or lampante, the latter mentioned above is not suitable for consumption).<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The<strong> product Oh!
