Exploring Olive Oil. I'm in a unique position to taste the world's best foods every day. I love full flavored, artisanally/traditionally made food. I chew and ponder, always remembering to eat fearlessly.

Conveyor belts and vacuums
This is where it all starts, those hobby horses are usually on the ground, keeping the olives poured in to the grating from bouncing out during the pouring. This is basically just a funnel that lets the olives fall onto a conveyor belt. That's the belt behind it, leading up to what is basically a blue vacuum cleaner.
For those of you coming from the Wikipedia entry on OLIVE OIL, I suggest starting at Thursday, Nov 30, 2006, and perusing from that point onward through to Saturday, Dec 9, 2006.
