Refined vs Cold-Pressed: Which Hemp Oil to Use
Refined and cold-pressed hemp oils come from the same seed but behave differently in a pan, a formulation and a warehouse. Cold-pressed oil is green, grassy and rich in the minor compounds that refining strips away; refined oil is pale, neutral and far more stable. These articles compare the two on colour, flavour, heat tolerance, shelf life and cost, so you can decide which one a given recipe, product or production run actually calls for.
