7. Store the Oil
Once you have collected the oil, pour it into a clean glass jar or bottle. Seal it tightly and store it in a cool, dark place to preserve its freshness. Homemade cold-pressed avocado oil can last up to a few months if stored properly.
Benefits of Cold-Pressed Avocado Oil
Cold-pressed avocado oil is rich in healthy fats, vitamins A, D, and E, and antioxidants. It’s great for cooking, as a salad dressing, or even for skincare and haircare due to its moisturizing properties.
Tips for Best Results

Be Patient: Extracting oil can take time, so be patient and ensure you press as much oil out as possible.
