I thought you might be interested to watch this video (just added English subtitles) showing the process of making organic cold-pressed oil with the use of wooden press-barrels:



Please share with friends and feel free to order wooden press-barrel directly from the Russian craft master.

To make oils you need to apply high pressure, upto 20-25 tons and in this case you will need a really strong press made of metal.

But if you make juices, you will apply pressure upto 5 tons and in this case you can use a press made of wood which is much cheaper. You can even make it yourself.

We sell the enclosures only (wooden press-barrels). The costs of wooden press-barrel vary from 160 to 225 USD depending on the volume (2, 3 or 6 litres), you can see and place an order here:  https://ecominded.net/natural-oils/press-barrels
Everything is shipped from Russia and don't worry - they are delivered to almost any country without any problem.

As for the press itself, you should purchase it locally and its cost depends on the place where you buy it. For instance here is the link: https://mallowtools.ie/products/30-ton-hydraulic-bearing-press-c-w-gauge
Here is another place where you can buy it: https://www.dtmtrading.com.au/product/hydraulic-30-ton-shop-press-sp30hl/
I would suggest you to put "Hydraulic Press 30 Ton" in Google and browse for the bect option for you.

Is there an advantage that a wooden barrel offers over a piece of metal pipe?

Good question.  Due to the friction in metal pipe, the temperature rises to 60 ° C, which leads to a partial loss of useful substances in the finished oil. And due to the contact with metal, the product not only risks "contamination" of unnecessary molecules, but also will lose omega acids due to oxidation. If you use a wooden press-barrel, you retain all the nutrients in the oil and avoid contamination.
