About Presswell

A small mill, and all the time it takes

One ingredient at a time, cleaned and sorted by hand, pressed slowly, and bottled with a date on it. Nothing blended, nothing added.

From press to bottle

01

The ingredient

One ingredient at a time, cleaned and sorted by hand at our mill. Never a blend.

02

The slow press

The press turns slowly, so the oil comes away without added heat or solvent.

03

Rest and filter

The oil rests in steel, settles on its own, then passes through cloth. Nothing added.

04

Bottle and seal

Bottled, dated and sealed with a tamper-evident cap, then sent out to kitchens across Karnataka.

What’s on the label

Only what we can put in writing

We list the ingredient, the process and the numbers. Nothing more.

One ingredient, 100%

Each bottle is one ingredient and nothing else. Coconut, groundnut, sunflower or safflower — never a blend.

Unrefined, hexane-free

No chemical solvent, no bleaching, no deodorising. The colour, aroma and sediment are the ingredient's own.

Pressed without heat

A slow press keeps temperatures low, so the oil comes away cold.

Made for gentle heat

Unrefined oils are happiest below a hard fry. Best on low to medium heat.

Bottled and dated

Filled and dated at the mill, then closed with a tamper-evident cap.

Nutrition, printed and published

Energy, fats and ingredients per 100 ml are printed on the label and listed on each product page.

Our way

Why we stay small

We run our own press. It makes a certain amount of oil each week, slowly, from single ingredients — never blended.

When a batch runs out, it runs out; the next press is already underway. We would rather say “sold out” than press faster than the oil allows.

The oil sets the pace.
