More juice, less effort - with good technology, such a result is guaranteed. Show your imagination: make fresh, cocktails, smoothies and desserts.
Freshly squeezed juices taste good, they invigorate and cheer you up. To get the most out of your favorite fruits, vegetables and berries, a correctly selected juicer will help. Modern units squeeze juice in different ways, differ in the quality of work, convenience and practicality of the design. There are options for every taste - from compact citrus presses to powerful kitchen wagons.
The anti-aging effect and healing properties of freshly squeezed citrus juices have been known for a long time. Unlike a plastic jug juicer, the steel citrus press is equipped with a lever handle, a light press on which you can get juice from oranges, grapefruits, lemons and limes in two counts. In order not to be limited to citrus fruits, take a closer look at devices that can gently squeeze juice from various fruits, vegetables and berries. Press type juicers are very popular today. They use the cold pressed method: a slowly rotating screw literally squeezes the juice from the fruit to a drop. Due to the low screw speed, the product does not heat up and all vitamins are retained in the juice. Typically, press juicers are compact, silent and able to work continuously for up to half an hour. Given the features of the technology, they require much less power. Such devices are easy to wash: just pass a glass of water through the included juicer - and everything is clean.
Centrifugal or centrifugal juicers are still in high demand. Most new products have a conical filter, more practical than a cylindrical filter, which is easily clogged. Unpretentious household juicers in plastic cases are designed for moderate intensity of use and short working time with breaks. They need a well-prepared raw material: it is necessary to thoroughly peel the fruits from the peel and stalks, cut into pieces, remove the seeds.
If your motto is “Not a day without juice!”, Choose high-performance stainless steel units with an almost unlimited service life. The unit will tirelessly squeeze juice from any fruit in liters, while in its wide neck you can put, for example, several apples with a peel and seeds at once. For a powerful juicer, it is not a problem of too hard or soft vegetables, fruits and citrus fruits: some models are capable of squeezing juice from different fruits one after another, and the filter does not have to be cleaned every time. Most devices have two speeds: when preparing juice or a cocktail from different fruits, first process softer ingredients at a low speed, and then hard ones (carrots, beets, etc.) - at high.
Indispensable attributes of worthy juicers are a fine-mesh stainless steel filter, automatic discharge of oilcake into a removable container, the presence of security systems, including protection against overheating, accidental switching on, etc.
Combo models
To make mixes and cocktails, to prepare intricate desserts will help a combined juicer. By purchasing an all-in-one device, you get several devices at once for the same money. Perhaps the most common combination is a citrus and centrifuge juicer. To turn one device into another, just change the nozzle.
Another equally common tandem is a juicer plus a blender. In a blender, you can make juice with pulp or puree from fruits that are high in pectin that cannot be beaten by a juicer: bananas, mangoes, etc. This unit is useful for making a thick cocktail of berries and fruits with juice, milk or ice - real smoothie. In addition to the blender for some appliances, the kit includes a compact mill for chopping vegetables, herbs, nuts for salads, soups, sauces and desserts.
