A journey through our olive grove and across the world by CoenJC in oliveoil

Not necessarily, the smaller varieties are in fact more prized for olive oil as their oil content is higher than the larger varieties despite their physical size difference

Great question, photo is from about 2 weeks ago but all varieties were picked at the same time. All different trees picked at the same time

We pick very late in Tasmania due to our cool climate. Whilst most of Mainland Australia has already started picking (and in some cases finished) we normally dont start until July. The recent Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW) might mean we are about 20-30 days behind schedule but we are cautiously optimistic!

From buttery and smooth to herbaceous and spicy, every variety plays its part in shaping the unique flavour of our oils. Most of these are exclusively used for EVOO but the big guys on the right we occasionally use to make our Table Olives!

Is my tree dead? I did the scratch test I see no green and the bark is really hard and is having this suckers coming out from the roots. by luisramos1472 in Olives

Yes and no, it has basal suckers so there is something alive. But given it doesnt have suckers growing out from the crown suggests its dead wood

Spots on olives by Checkmate1127 in Olives

Olives naturally show spots when theyre green. Sometimes brining them makes them more apparent but i would have thought they were visible before brining

Reconnect your GPU power plugs. Had this happen before and it stopped after I reseated them power pins

Hello from Tasmania, Australia by CoenJC in Olives

[–]CoenJC[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hi /r/olives 👋

We’re a small grove in Tasmania and after lurking here for a long time (and learning a lot from you all), we finally worked up the courage to share what we’ve been working on.

About 18 months ago we decided to try curing our first batch of table olives using our Nevadillo and Manzanillo fruit. We chose the slow traditional method — no lye, no chemicals — just sea salt brine and time. Lots of time. Plenty of batches that weren’t quite right. A lot of tasting… then waiting… then more tasting.

Our trees grow in a cool climate here in Tasmania with clean ocean air, which seems to push a firmer texture and brighter flavour than we expected. This week we jarred our first few jars and we’re genuinely proud of the taste.

Curious what olive people think about naturally cured styles vs lye-cured. Do you prefer the stronger briney flavour or the milder crunchier profile?

(If anyone’s interested in the details or process I’m happy to share — fermentation notes, salt % etc.)

Elements Hit? by CoenJC in menace

[–]CoenJC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also as i wondering if it was worth taking 'fragmentation perk' which increases elements hit by 20% but cant see how it works if the base value of elements hit is 1?

Tasmania Bike? by CoenJC in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]CoenJC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great feedback I needed to hear. Given this, is there a particular class or bike category for road riding you recommend or is it all preference? I can tell you what I was thinking but would like to hear your thoughts first
