That’s called first press. The best and most expensive. After first press the coconut has water added to it. Then pressed again. That’s called second press and it’s kept separate from the first press results. Not as high quality.


hostilefemur

Im guessing the one i get from costco is not a first press right? Its too cheap


Any_Roof_6199

It is made from the powdered coconut remains after all the pressing 😆. Just add water to it and voila. Costco coco


RockstarAgent

Oooh just like my powdered water! My fav survival alternative. Just add some rare Dihydrogen oxide!!


varys2013

Careful with that. It's getting into everything now. Every living person has a bunch of it in them. The media say nothing...

It's the famous Costco Squeeze


limethedragon

That's what I call the handy jays behind Wendy's.


energybased

You can just look at the fat content. The higher the fat, the more expensive the coconut milk.


noonmoon66

Thats probably the fifth press


maubis

Are you even buying coconut milk or coconut water?


chillwithpurpose

I buy my coconut milk in a can at the grocery store… I get my coconut water from the same store but in the beverage section. The canned milk is sooo thick. You wouldn’t want to drink it but it’s great for all the recipes.


UsernameObscured

It makes the recipes so creamy, it’s the best.


durenatu

That's something called "xantana gum" in Brazil that is added to cheaper products that give them that creamy shiny texture and make they look expensive. I imagine it's similar to what they do to cotso coco


DiligentDaughter

Xanthan gum. It's an emulsifier, also thickens things and keeps them from separating. I use it in gluten-free baking, to give the dough the proper consistency. You see it a *lot* in gluten free products, but it's also in "normal" foods that would otherwise separate, like salad dressings that have oil in them, ice cream, and...coconut milk. It doesn't change the taste, so it's really useful. It's also in random places you wouldn't expect, like toothpaste.


durenatu

Thank you for the proper explanation, Xanthan gum is really cheap here in Brazil, they add it to a lot of stuff, from food to cosmetics.


Ilsunnysideup5

Those are mixed with water for sure just like bacon.


rdxgs

All i see in grocery stores is basically 98% water, 1% coconut milk, 1% added vitamins, 1 gallon and for like $7 lmao Only way for me to get something that is closer to actual coconut milk is to get it canned. otherwise it's water with coconut essence. Same thing with the other non-dairy milk, they are a literal scam.


DAILITH

So, I always go for the first pressing, you know? I mean, why wait until everyone else has had their fun with the olives?


1337haXXor

Woah, Peep Show? Haha, I just watched this episode the other day.


Pifflebushhh

The secret ingredient is coconuts


SubstantialDrag108

Olive oil is a perfectly acceptable topic after all


Dr_Zorkles

Pants down, stick it in.


Jerking_From_Home

I don’t want the dirty, worn out, sloppy second press olives!


uzenik

Do you recon this it  coconut cream? In shops i can find something called coconut cream that is thicker/fatter and costs more thn coconut milk. I thought maybe it was skimmed after resting, like dairy cream, but maybe its just the first press?


panburger_partner

You're right that coconut cream is just the fat skimmed off of the coconut milk. It's coconut milk without the water. Unfun fact: Low-fat coconut milk is priced about the same as regular coconut milk but is basically the same thing, just watered down even more.


cobdequiapo

First press for virgin coconut oil. Leave it overnight then scoop up the oil. The rest is duck feed


xijinping9191

Trust me you don’t want to drink first pressed coconut milk . I tried once it is so oily . It is more like drinking oil . That is way it has to be added with water


ElectricFleshlight

It's mostly for cooking


Kserwin

Have you considered it might not be used for drinking purposes though?


LimeSlicer

Would that somehow change what they said?


cammyk123

Comparable to eating cooking chocolate I imagine and saying it tastes bad.


Kserwin

No, but they make it sound like they buy expensive coconut milk only to thin it down so it's drinkable.


LetMePushTheButton

Just like cannabis rosin. Mmmmm


Hajo2

Is the majority of the yield first press? I can't imagine that much coming out a second time


SpinCharm

Well you can certainly rinse it many times so I suppose the second press, which is where they add water, couple be repeated.


winterfate10

coltees_titties

I was also wondering why do those coconuts resemble discs of mozzarella cheese.


TheChrono

It’s more about its flexibility. No need for strength if you’re stretchy enough.


notquite20characters

Flexibility is strength. Material strength is the maximum stress a material can endure before being permanently damaged. Flexible things are stronger than rigid things as a rule of thumb.


SuspiciousSubstance9

>Flexible things are stronger than rigid things as a rule of thumb. If you're definition of Material Strength is it's Yield Strength, than this statement is blatantly false.  Look up the Stress-Strain curve of almost any metal with different heat treatments. You'll see that brittle, less flexible, has a higher yield strength while more ductile, flexible, treatments. Even the maximum stress is lower. Flexible isn't stronger in a pure maximum sense, it's stronger in a design constraint sense. You want some wiggle room (perfectly rigid things tend to not play well together and thermal expansion/contraction are a thing) and also for Safety reasons (brittle things break without any heads up, like glass)


limethedragon

What you're describing is *tensile strength* and is only one form of strength measurement. Tenacity is another form of material strength, used to describe resistance to deformation. Strength alone is a nondescript word.


blazetronic

Flexibility is strain


narcolepticsloth1982

Well that's a hell of a lot easier than trying to find the teats on a coconut.


Llodsliat

I wouldn't suggest doing this with a cow. Although they kind of already do this with cows.


Anonymo

They are just checking for cancer.


Think_fast_no_faster

Are those cheesecloths filled with the coconut meat?


Jackatarian

Yep!


Opinionated_by_Life

That's what I was wondering also, and then the cheesecloth also acts as a filter after holding everything together.


Banned3rdTimesaCharm

Wow, you guys figured out how cheesecloth works.


lpmiller

That, or maybe brains. Probably brains.


DasIstNotEineBoobie

Why is it called coconut milk and not juice? We didn't say we're having a glass of apple milk


C4242

Okay, did some googling. The term milk predates the term milk from animals. So instead we should be asking why we call dairy milk "milk" since we're not grinding and crushing the cows.


C4242

Saying "apple milk" sounds... Right? I could get behind that.


pettypeniswrinkle

I sometimes call soy milk “bean juice”


Nivroeg

Coconut juice is a drink

None of these posts are recent so this repost is not unreasonable.


cheapdrinks

Never understand how people have nothing better to do than link years old posts with the same video to prove some point that it's not OC. It's as if once something is posted for the first time then it's heresy to ever post it again and those that saw it the first time are the only ones who should ever be allowed to see it for the rest of time. That's of course ignoring the fact that 99% of content "posted" to reddit is just reposted from other sources anyway. Do you get mad as hell whenever you see Simpsons or Seinfeld reruns on the TV, screaming "REPOSTTTTTTT!!!" in your cold, empty apartment? Did you go to your local blockbuster as a kid and lose your shit because they were renting movies that had already been in cinemas?

Llodsliat

Wait, coconut flan? I gotta check that out. Sounds neat.


durenatu

Don't know how they call that in another countries, but here it's called "God's manjar" (from the Italian mangiare) and it's made with coconut milk, fresh coconut, cornstarch, condensed milk and sugar syrup with boiled plums, it's really delicious


Llodsliat

I've never heard of it in México; however, we do have [horchata de coco](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41qXHdCdI1o), which is awesome.


durenatu

That seemed really interesting, gotta try sometime, here we have a similar recipe but it's called "arroz doce", I thought it would be the same, and not a beverage. [Here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mXXC6sf3qaU&pp=ygURTWFuamFyIGRvcyBkZXVzZXM%3D) it's how the coconut flan looks.


Llodsliat

Arroz doce looks like (and maybe is) what in México we call [arroz con leche](https://www.oliviascuisine.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/IMG_1450-1024x768.jpg). Though here it's usually served in individual cups compared to the big plate I saw. The more I look at it, arroz doce kind of looks more like a cake, compared to arroz con leche which is more of a pudding.


JypsiCaine

That was fascinating! I have never listened to someone speaking Portuguese before. It's like Spanish meets French + Swiss. Neat! And the flan looks tasty, too. Will def have to try!

ElectronicPound6342

ButterbeerAndPizza

Anyone want to explain the difference between coconut oil, coconut milk, and coconut water?


JTibbs

Coconut water is the liquid inside an immature coconut before it creates much fruit meat inside. Once the cocnut starts maturing and producing flesh inside itself, the water disappears. Its a little salty, but is still mostly water, though it does have fats and proteins floating in it. Its actually similar in chemical makeup to human blood plasma, so it can TECHNICALLY be used as an IV fluid instead of saline in emergencies. Not your 1st through 10th option though. Coconut milk is the fat rich liquid extracted from a mature coconuts flesh, usually by shredding and pressing the flesh. Its a white liquid full of water, fat, protein, and sugars, hence its called ‘milk’. Coconut oil is the fat from coconut milk separated out of solution, similar to how olive oil is extracted from olive pulp.


ButterbeerAndPizza

Great explanation! Thank you!


Essence-of-why

Does coconut milk that has had the fat removed for coconut oik have a name? Skim Coconut Milk?


JTibbs

Coconut skim milk is a thing, but i never really see it used.


PortiaKern

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_oil There are several processes. Generally speaking it looks like they don't directly extract coconut oil from coconut milk. The leftover stuff is usually fed to animals or used as fertilizer.


davidtheminion

Yeah one is oil, one is milk and the other is water. Hope that clears things up for you.

CIeMs0n

More impressive, you can milk humans this way as well.


SpaceCrazyArtist

Can confirm. But it kindda shoots everywhere ao not very effective


JTibbs

Pretty similarly actually. Almonds get pureed, then squeezed through mesh in a press. At home makes of almond/oat/nut milks use a blender and a bunch of cheesecloth

I be always wanted to know who milked them

BPMData

Fun fact: you can make tempeh out of the wrung out coconut meat left over after this process. Apparently it's pretty tasty, very nutritious and has a good chance of containing one of the deadliest toxins on earth which is 100% fatal to all living organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi and even bacteria, and has no antidote. Bon appetit!


StumbleOn

> has a good chance of containing one of the deadliest toxins on earth which is 100% fatal to all living organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi and even bacteria, and has no antidote. What toxin is this holy shit


BPMData

I really want to write a murder mystery where the killer is either an indonesian chef or like a plant biologist, and the murder is discovered because the poisoned drink was spilled across a bed of flowers with some symbiotic fungi as well as rocks covered with cyanobacteria-based lichen, and the detective notices that whatever poison was in the drink killed the flowers AND the fungus AND the lichen AND the insects in the flower bed.


Mr-Fleshcage

Just one more thing...


StumbleOn

oohhh I'd read it


LaunchTransient

I think they are thinking of something called Bongkrek acid, which is the result of contamination from the bacteria *Burkholderia gladioli.* The toxin attacks the process in which ATP is created (basically the core mechanism that allows you to provide energy to your cells). As of so far, there is no treatment for poisonings, but it is rare. Just don't go drinking or eating spoiled coconut products.


BPMData

Yep, bongkrekic acid! One of the coolest biological oddities out there.  It inhibits a specific protein in the mitochondria called the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT). This protein is crucial for the exchange of ADP and ATP between the mitochondrial matrix and the cytoplasm. By inhibiting this protein, bongkrekic acid disrupts the mitochondrial function, leading to cellular energy crisis and eventually cell death in any cell which uses ATP as an energy source. Which is all of them. Even viruses use ATP as an energy source, which makes me wonder if you could poison them with bongkrekic acid? Except I don't see how you'd do that without killing the living host cells, too.   It's not the most fatal toxin for any particular species by LD50, but I don't know any other toxin (though there probably is one) that just blanket kills *everything*, without an antidote.   And the real way to avoid it is to simply never eat coconut tempeh at all. Iirc there's no 100% safe way to make it that won't produce the acid sometimes, which is why the production of coconut tempeh is banned in Indonesia. A few people still die from it every year, though.
