Does Barleans say that their cold pressed oil is at room temperature all
through the process?
Compressing most things seems to cause heat; (law of physics).
Without research; a small low pressure press would be easier to operate at
a lower temperature than a commercial press; all other things being equal.
Since heat seeks a sink; small has an advantage.
Think about it.

She could buy the seeds in the market, put

another method she could use?
Being fairly well-versed on the subject of preparation of ANY herb I can
tell you that that probably won't work. In order to extract the oil the
blender would cause very high heat - that's a no-no. In fact, even
presses
used at home would almost do the same thing. Cold-pressed is the only way
to preserve the various constituents of Flaxseed.
