Olive Mill Experts offers an intensive 10-day program for individuals who wish to gain practical knowledge and experience in the field of olive oil production. The program takes place in a fully operational olive mill during the month of October.
This is a practical training designed for professionals in the olive oil sector, as well as for all those interested in gaining a deeper experiential and practical understanding of the olive oil production process. More specifically, for aspiring olive oil millers, production managers, and aspiring olive oil mill operators with or without experience.
It is noted that a prerequisite for participation in the olive mill training is the previous attendance of an olive oil tasting seminar. The training will be conducted in English.
It is noted that for participation in the olive mill machine operator training, no previous experience is required. The training will be conducted in Greek.
Olive Mill Experts, through its founder, Kazantzidis Konstantinos, brings the practical experience required, while the specialized speakers Professor Maurizio Servili, Manolis Salivaras as well as two collaborating speakers from the Spanish olive oil school ESAO, contribute with their technical training. You will be able to address all your questions and concerns regarding the olive oil extraction process to ensure high quality olive oil.
Basic information for ensuring quality at all stages of the production process, from olive harvest to storage. Varietal characteristics will be analyzed, how climatic influences affect the oil extraction process, as well as the importance of proper maintenance and cleanliness of equipment.
Learn how to properly manage olive mill by-products (waste), with the aim of reducing the impact on the environment and making the most of their economic use.
Learn about the most common and least common mistakes in the olive oil processing process that can lead to lower quality or worse financial results.
Our goal is to produce experienced professionals who will be able to immediately start working professionally. Whether they are olive millers or machine operators, the ability to work immediately after attending the seminar is a given. Both the operators will be able to work in olive mills, and professional olive millers will have access to experienced operators as well as the knowledge for the optimal quality of olive oil production.
