Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Cold Pressed and Tested for Free Acidity
Extra virgin is the top grade of olive oil: pressed by mechanical means only, kept cool, and with no more than 0.8 % free acidity. Press fresh olives the day they are picked, keep the paste under 27 °C, and check the oil by titration: a few millilitres of weak caustic soda tell you its grade.
The picture: a water-driven olive mill with edge-running stones, drawn by Bartolomeo Gandolfi of Porto Maurizio, printed in Rome in 1793.

Test the free acidity
Test the free acidity
Make 0.1 M caustic soda: 4 mL of the 10 % solution made up to 100 mL. Warm 50 mL ethanol with a few drops of phenolphthalein and add caustic soda until just pink. Weigh in 10 g of oil, shake, and titrate from the burette until the pink lasts 30 seconds. Read the grade in the next step.

Oil at 0.8 % or under keeps the extra virgin name only if it also tastes clean and fruity. Store it in dark glass, full and closed, out of the light and heat.

Limits
The grade limits and the 27 °C cold-press mark are from the IOC grades as given by Wikipedia; the titration is the standard free-fatty-acid test (AOCS Ca 5a-40). Quantities are ours. The official grade also needs a tasting panel, which one maker cannot provide.
