Along with the growing popularity of a healthy lifestyle, which can be observed in recent decades, juicers have firmly entered our lives. For the first time, Urs Pfluger came to mechanize the process of separating juice from the solid part of vegetables and fruits back in 1948. But the most interesting thing is that it is precisely those companies with which he personally worked and advised that today they are recognized as industry leaders. The designer's inventions predetermined the success and sound leadership of such giants as Philips, Bosch, Siemens and Moulinex. Rating of the top 10 best juicers - centrifugal, auger, for citrus, read in our review.

How to choose the best juicer? Main criteria

Question 1. Which brand of juicer is better?

The manufacturing company is the factor that, according to statistics, buyers most often pay attention to in the first place. Among the most popular in Russia, it is worth noting the following manufacturers of juicers:

• Philips as a recognized leader in small home appliances with huge selection products and excellent technical characteristics,
• Panasonic is a brand that has long been a symbol of reliability,
• Moulinex, which attracts many people with its original design and construction solutions with consistently high quality equipment,
• Bosch is a brand that has long been talking about itself in all areas of its work without exception,

Question 2. What type of juicer should I buy?

• centrifugal juicers are highly productive, but when working with soft fruits, they discard too wet cake;
• screw in the last few years have been used by everyone in great demand, because they
  they work more slowly in comparison with centrifugal ones, due to which 95% of the juice from any fruit (including soft fruits) is successfully squeezed out, germinated grains, leafy greens can be used as components for making juice, which centrifugal units do not allow;
• citrus - the most "highly specialized" machine for those who drink citrus juices very often, while others do not particularly like it, because otherwise you should think about purchasing a centrifugal combined model with a special citrus press nozzle.

Question 3. What power juicer should I choose?

Power is a fundamentally important indicator, first of all, for centrifugal juicers, since the speed of rotation of the centrifuge, and hence the quality of juice extraction, directly depends on it. All equipment of this type can be divided into models up to 500 W, 500-1000 W and more than 1 kW. At the same time, the higher the power index, the greater the productivity of the equipment and the dryness of the discarded cake. For auger equipment, due to their technological features of work, 100-200 W is sufficient power for operation, and up to 40 W for citrus fruits, since they very easily “give” juice.

Question 4. Which juicer is the most convenient?

For any technique, it is very important that it be quite convenient in operation and maintenance, become an assistant in the house and not deliver extra hassle. Of these comfortable options for juicers, I would like to highlight:

• cake tank (the more juice is planned to be squeezed out at a time, the larger volume is desirable);
• the presence of several speeds for the operation of centrifugal machines;
• wide chute for feeding fruit;
• removable foam separator - a nozzle that regulates the amount of pulp in the juice by changing the size of the slots;
• defoamer, which will allow you to get clear juice immediately after squeezing.

Based on the answers to these questions, we made our rating.

What is the best juicer to buy?

Today, manufacturers offer equipment for any requests and preferences: you can choose a very high-quality juicer of a well-known brand with a huge number of various functions, or you can also have a simple inexpensive model that will please the owners and will not burden the family budget.

The main thing in this case is to decide on your goals and wishes:

• If you want an orange fresh juice every morning, a citrus juicer will not let you be late for business, because it is very easy to use and maintain.
• You have your own garden-garden - you won’t find better powerful auger technology. Tomatoes, berries, hard and soft fruits will be pressed with maximum efficiency.
• Do your family members like natural fresh juices on the weekends? An inexpensive centrifugal machine is your option.

To choose best juicer for a home, you need to clearly understand what exactly you and your household need from it. After all, there is no ideal device for all, and each model has its own advantages and weak sides. In this material you will find step by step guide on the choice of juicers for the home and a selection of video reviews.

Step 1. Decide on the type of juicer

Type 1. Centrifugal (universal)

This is the most common type of juicer. The fruits in it are first crushed by a grater, then they enter the separator, where, under the action of centrifugal force, the juice is separated from the pulp.

• Squeezes juice from almost all fruits, vegetables and berries (with the exception of fruits with small stones). Especially good for soft fruits and vegetables (eg tomatoes or peaches).
• Small whole fruits (e.g. apples, pears, etc.) can be inserted into the cylindrical hatch, which saves a lot of time.

Universal juicer centrifugal type is a workhorse that allows you to prepare juice quickly and not waste time slicing fruit. Just throw the bullseye in the neck, press it with the pusher and turn on the machine

• Juice is squeezed out very quickly - 2-4 times faster than an auger juicer.
• The juice from a centrifugal juicer turns out to be more liquid and homogeneous, without pulp (however, on the other hand, this can also be called a minus, because juice with pulp is healthier).
• The machine is easy to clean even without the use of a special brush.
• In this category, the largest selection of devices for any budget.
• The cost of centrifugal juicers is lower than for augers. The price varies from 1000 to 12000 rubles.

• Due to the heating of the fruit at the stage of friction and the interaction of the pulp with air in the separator, the juice is oxidized and loses some of its beneficial properties. In addition, such juice cannot be stored for a long time, it must be drunk immediately.
• Juices less thoroughly than an auger juicer and produces 10-40% less juice (depending on the type of fruit/vegetable).
• Gives more foam than the auger model.
• Squeeze juice from herbs can only expensive models juicers, and they do not cope with this in the best way, and from wheatgrass - they can’t at all.
• Works noisy. The noise is about the same as from a blender, food processor or coffee grinder.
• Centrifugal models tend to be quite tall and require a lot of space.

If you prioritize the speed of obtaining juice, say you like to drink it for breakfast, you have a large family or you are looking for a juicer for the whole team, then a centrifugal juicer is optimal choice. It can also be recommended to lovers of juices from juicy and soft fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes.

For tips on choosing the best universal centrifugal type juicer, you can learn from this video.

Type 2. Screw (other names: "cone", "cold-pressed juicer")

Screw juicers are also universal, but they work according to a different principle: they squeeze juice from fruits using a press under high pressure and not abrasion. The main part of the device is a conical spiral auger operating at low speeds. Outwardly and according to the principle of operation, the auger juicer resembles a meat grinder.

• It preserves the maximum useful properties of fruits, as they do not oxidize during cooking.
• For the same reason, the auger juicer allows you to make preparations and keep the juice in the refrigerator for 48 hours without losing it. nutritional value. The ability to store juice somewhat compensates for the slowness of the device, because you can prepare drinks in advance.
• The extraction is more thorough, which means that it gives more juice.

An auger juicer is more expensive than a universal juicer, but it squeezes 10-40% more juice (depending on the juiciness of fruits / vegetables)

• Squeezes juice from almost everything, even from cabbage, seeds, nuts and grass.
• Works quietly.
• Juice is obtained with less foam (1.5-2 times compared to juice from a centrifugal machine).

Only an auger juicer can extract juice from cabbages and herbs

• It costs more (from 12 thousand rubles).
• The choice of devices in this category is small.
• The mouth of auger juicers is smaller, so most fruits and vegetables need to be cut beforehand, making the cooking process more difficult and slower.
• The juice is thicker due to the presence of pulp. On the other hand, we can say that the benefits of the pulp compensate for the heterogeneity of the drink.
• Although the screw machine squeezes juice from soft vegetables and fruits, it turns out more like mashed potatoes or children food. However, if you have small children, then this is a great advantage.

In what cases is it recommended: The auger juicer is an ideal choice for gourmets, vegetarians, raw foodists, families with small children, the sick who need diet/liquid food, and just people who care about their health. In addition, screw machines are recommended for those who love juices from hard vegetables and fruits (apples, carrots, beets, etc.).

If you are interested in a screw juicer, we suggest watching a video review and comparison of 4 models screw machines middle price range.

And in this video, a comparison of a screw and centrifugal juicer is presented in detail and clearly.

Type 3. Citrus (citrus press)

The machine is specially designed for squeezing juice from citrus fruits. The design of electric citrus juicers is very simple and consists of: an engine, a reservoir for collecting juice and a cone-shaped nozzle, which, rotating at low speed, squeezes juice from fruits.

• It does not require peeling fruits, just wash them and cut them into halves (across the slices). In other types of juicers, you can also squeeze juice from citrus fruits, but for this you will have to clean them first.
• You can squeeze pomegranate juice in it. In a screw juicer, you can also get juice from pomegranates, but first you need to extract its grains, which is not very convenient.
• Compact.
• It is inexpensive (the price of electric citrus presses is 1200-3000 rubles, although there are also expensive models for 19-30 thousand rubles).
• Easy to use.
• Works fast.
• Very easy care.
• It does not make noise, thanks to which you can prepare juices even in the early morning, when all the household members are still sleeping.
• Many models of citrus machines allow you to adjust the amount of pulp in the finished juice.

• Not suitable for pressing any fruit except citruses and pomegranates.

In what cases is it recommended: If you don’t need anything other than orange / pomegranate juice, then a citrus juicer is your choice. And citrus presses will be very useful for those who like to have parties. With such a device, guests will be able to independently squeeze the juice for their cocktails without peeling the oranges. At the same time, the work of the press will not interrupt conversations and muffle the music.

If you want to buy a citrus juicer, we offer you to watch a comparative video review of three different models.

Step 2. Size and volume of containers

Decided on the type of juicer? Now let's think about the volume of juice and pulp collection tanks you need. Citrus and centrifugal machines most often have built-in containers for collecting pulp, while augers have separate ones (sold as a set).

• For a couple of people, the volume of the container for collecting juice will be 300-600 ml (this is 1-2 glasses), the volume of the container for collecting pulp is 1.5-1.6 liters.
• For a large family, for making juice at a time, a tank with a volume of 1.5-2 liters is needed, the volume of the tank for collecting pulp is 2.6-3 liters.

Also, when choosing a suitable model, pay attention to the size of the loading neck. The wider it is, the larger fruits and vegetables you can immerse in it without cutting.

• The average size of the loading neck is 75 mm. An apple up to 73 mm in diameter will fit in such a hatch, larger fruits will have to be cut. The widest mouth of the juicer can have a diameter of 84–85 mm.

Step 3. Power and speed modes

The higher the power of the machine, the faster and better it gives juice.

• For centrifugal machines, the optimal power is 250-300 W and the separator rotation speed is 10000-12000 rpm. It makes little sense to purchase a device with high performance (up to 23,000 rpm), since this practically does not affect the performance and quality of the juice. By the way, some juicers have up to 9 speed settings, although in fact, the average lover of freshly squeezed juices will need 2-3 settings: the low speed mode is suitable for soft fruits, and the high speed mode is for hard fruits. Keep in mind that some centrifugal devices may have only 1 setting, but they are not suitable for juicing soft fruits / vegetables.

• Screw juicers can have a power of 200-400 watts.
• Citrus devices have a very small power of 20-40 watts. In fact, when choosing a citrus press, power isn't all that important, and a machine with just 25W will do the job just fine.

Step 4. Materials of the body and parts

The body of any juicer can be made of plastic and / or aluminum or stainless steel. Metal cases are much more beautiful and more reliable than plastic cases, but more expensive and heavier. Plastic, on the other hand, significantly reduces the cost of the device, facilitates it and simplifies its care, and with careful handling, it can also last for many years.

• Keep in mind that polished stainless steel and glossy black plastic leave fingerprints.

The centrifuge material in the centrifugal juicer is always made of stainless steel. But citrus and auger juicers may have plastic filter parts, because due to low speeds rotation loads on them are negligible.

Step 5Advanced Options

It is desirable that your future juicer has the following additional options:

• Drip-stop function (on machines with direct juice supply).
• A glass or jug ​​for ready-made juice and a lid-foam separator. It is good if the juice container is measured.
• Sucker legs or at least simple rubberized legs for the stability of the device (especially true for centrifugal juicers).
• The possibility of washing removable parts in the dishwasher.
• The ability to remove the cord in a special compartment at the base of the device. Also make sure that the cord of the model you have chosen is long enough or not too short.
• Brush for cleaning sieve cells.

The modern market offers housewives only two main types of juicers: citrus and universal. The latter, in turn, are also divided into two large classes: centrifugal and screw. Both of these types of devices are quite easy to use, productive and reliable.Therefore, many housewives, of course, are interested in the question of whetherwhich juicer is better - auger or centrifugal.

Main differences

Screw juicers are structurally, in fact, a simplified version of the meat grinder. Vegetables and fruits loaded into such a model are ground into gruel by means of durable knives, while releasing juice.MainThis is what it does at low speeds. During operation, such models do not accelerate at all.

Centrifugal juicers have a slightly different design and, accordingly, a different principle of operation. They functionvery fast. Loaded into a containersuch a devicevegetables or fruitsstart spinning at high speed. At the same time, the pulp cut with knives is literally pressed into the walls of the container, as a result of which juice is squeezed out of it.

Advantages of meat grinder models

What are there about such a technique asauger juicer, reviews?The main advantage of this type of devicescountsthe fact that with their use you can get the most healthy juice. As already mentioned, squeezers of this kind work very slowly. Therefore, the juice separated from the pulp does notheats up andenriched with oxygen, and therefore not oxidized. Thus, in a drink prepared on a screw model, absolutely all vitamins and microelements useful for the human body are preserved.

Since there is no oxygen in the juice obtained from the screw device, it can be stored without loss of quality. long time. And this, of course, is very convenient for housewives with children. If there is such a device in the house, there is no need to prepare juice several times a day.

In addition to the possibility of obtaining the highest quality product,deserved good and for such qualities as:

low noise level;

long service life without the need to replace components (due to slow operation);

a small amount of cake remaining after squeezing;

the possibility of pressing even hard products - lentils, herbs, wheat seeds.

If desired, using the screw model, you can make not only juice, but also soy or nut milk. These devices are very convenient to use. The container that comes with this juicer has a wide mouth. Therefore, the hostess does not need to chop vegetables or fruits too much to load.

Disadvantages of screw juicers

Of course, devices of this variety have not only advantages. For example, juice squeezed with their use always contains a certain amount of pulp. Not everyone loves this product. Sometimes, when using overripe fruits or vegetables, not even a drink comes out of a screw juicer, but a real liquid puree.

Another small drawback of this type of devices is the impossibility of long-term use. It is impossible to squeeze juice on such a model for more than half an hour. When used at home, thirty minutes is usually enough to prepare a sufficient amount of drink. But in industrial production, such juicers cannot be used, of course.

Today, both horizontal and vertical auger models are on sale. The latter type of technique, unfortunately, cannot also be used to obtain tomato juice. Such models simply cannot cope with capricious tomatoes.

Advantages and disadvantages of centrifugal juicers

Models of this variety also have many advantages.Centrifugal juicer, devicewhich is easier than that of auger, is valuedconsumers, above all for a very high speed work. Process fruits and vegetables usingsuch equipmentcanactually very fast. Also, the advantages of this type of technology, many housewives includeand heravailability. Centrifugal models are much cheaper than screw ones.

The disadvantage of juicers of this type, consumers consider, of course, primarily oxidation finished product. There are actually very few vitamins and microelements in the drink obtained using this device. You can store the juice that came out of the centrifugal design device for no more than 20 minutes. After this time, the drink will not only lose those small beneficial properties that it still has, but will also become absolutely tasteless.

Price for appliances

Decidingwhich juicer to choose - auger or centrifugal,Of course, the cost of these models should also be taken into account.Price for budget standardhigh-speed devicesin specialized stores is approximately 4500-6500 rubles. Of course, this is very little. Buy for yourself and your familycentrifugala juicer can today almost any resident of Russia. Small appliances of this design can be bought even for 2000-2500 rubles. The most expensive huge centrifugal models cost no more than 11 thousand rubles.

The price of screw juicers is much higher. Standard Models of this variety are worth the order20-30 thousand rubles A small juicer of this design can be purchased for 8-9 thousand rubles. Overall models often cost more than 40 thousand rubles.

So which juicer is better - screw or centrifugal?

Housewives give preference to "meat grinder" models, first of all, of course, because with their use you can get a better product. However, it is still impossible to unequivocally state that devices of this type are better than centrifugal ones. Their advertising is aimed primarily at the usefulness of the juice. However, no one, unfortunately, gives specific figures anywhere. So how much more useful "screw" juice "centrifugal" is actually unknown.

As for taste, a good end product can be obtained using both types of devices. And although a drink prepared in a centrifugal model quickly loses its attractive qualities, such a technique costs an order of magnitude cheaper than a screw one.

What you should pay attention to when choosing in the first place

Thus, an unambiguous answer to the question of which juicer is better - screw or centrifugal - cannot be given.High-speed models are inexpensive. Screws give a better product.

And high-speed appliances and "meat grinders" are pretty good in the household beneficial species juicers. Screw and centrifugal models are almost equally convenient in operation. But inanywayto acquire the first equipment that caught my eye, whatever design it may have, not worth it. Before making a purchase, you shouldnecessarilylook at least at who is the manufacturer of the device. A juicer made by a reputable company will be easy to use and will last a long time. A model from an unknown manufacturer can break down after a couple of weeks of use.

Rating of screw devices

What companies produce todaythe highest quality models of such equipment? Ratingjuicersscrewcurrently (2017) looks something like this:

verticalKitfort KT-1102.This auger model is rightfully considered the number one juicer in the world.The equipment of this brand takes up very little space in the house, is characterized by high power, quiet operation and high spin efficiency.

ExpensivePanasonic MJ-L500STQ. This model has rich functionality and high build quality.

budgetaryENDEVER SGE-97.The advantages of this juicer include good power and the ability to squeeze, including products such as carrots and pomegranate seeds.

Rating of centrifugal juicers

Housewives who decide to squeeze fruits and vegetables on a device of this particular variety should consider buying:

Panasonic MJ-DJ31. This juicer also has a pre-grinding function.

Philips HR1869/01-31-61-70-80. This model has the best power in its class - 900 watts. It can be used not only for working with solid products, but also frozen ones.

Bosch MES20A0/20C0/20G0. The advantages of this hostess model include low cost, the presence of two speed modes, and compactness.

Outcome

Thus, the answer to the question of which juicer is better - screw or centrifugal -hdepends mainly on the personal opinion of the housewife herself. From the point of view of costs, high-speed budget models are, of course, preferable. If there are enough funds, then it may be worth considering purchasing an expensive screw device from a good manufacturer.

Today, more and more people pay attention to a healthy lifestyle, one of the key elements of which is the use of a large number of various natural juices. They contain a large number of vitamins and minerals, which are almost completely absorbed by the human body. Of course, freshly squeezed juices have an advantage here, which are consumed within about 10-15 minutes after their preparation.

It is very problematic to choose a suitable juicer for the home, since there are quite a lot of models on the market, buyers are often lost in such a variety.

When choosing, you should rely on a number of important points:

• Trademark - it is best if the products are manufactured by a well-known manufacturer whose name is well-known. Such models will serve for a long time, as well-known companies are trying to keep their brand at a high level;
• The material from which the main structural elements are made. The housing can be made of plastic or metal, plastic product will last much less than metal. It is desirable that all internal details were made from metal;
• The number of speeds of work - there must be at least two of them. One will be used on relatively soft vegetables, fruits and berries, the other on hard ones;
• Power is one of the most important indicators. Usually it is chosen in the range of 400-600 W, which is quite enough for the hardest vegetables such as carrots;
• Ergonomic design - the presence of additional details that facilitate the convenience of using the juicer.

When compiling our top 10 rating, we took into account all these points and tried to include in it the best juicers, which differ not only in durability, but also in ease of use. We also selected the best devices depending on customer reviews, in terms of price and quality. We hope that after studying the rating you will be able to choose the most suitable product for yourself.

To navigate the great variety of models, first decide what kind of juice you need. If you are a lover of a glass of orange juice in the morning, and you are completely indifferent to beetroot and carrot juice, then there is no point in buying a universal unit. Specialized citrus juicers are smaller, lighter, and simpler, which means they are more reliable. The capacity of the tank of such juicers is from a glass to a liter. And you don’t need more, because that’s what freshly squeezed juice is for, to drink it fresh, and not. Pay attention to the spout - whether it will be convenient to pour ready-made juice through it. On some models, it is equipped with an additional pulp filter.

Another type of citrus juicer can squeeze the juice directly into a glass. This is convenient, because the less juice is poured from container to container, the more useful substances he will save. In addition, there is no container - you do not need to wash it. If the container is present, then it is good if divisions are applied to it, helping to accurately measure the desired volume.

It is convenient if the juicer is equipped with a reverse mode - it will help you extract the juice from the fruit to the last drop. It is good if there is a set of nozzles of different sizes, because different types citrus fruits differ very noticeably in size, and it is impossible to squeeze juice from them with the same nozzle with the same quality.

Well, if you are not going to be limited to citrus fruits alone, then you will have to focus on universal juicers. These clever devices can juice just about anything. From what exactly the device can squeeze juice, and from what - and not try, is usually indicated in the instructions.

If this process does not inspire you, take a conical cage. Here, unnecessary residues themselves will fall into a special container, but the juice yield will be much less - about half of the valuable product will remain among the waste.

Be careful when trying the juicer on parameters such as power or centrifuge speed. Yes, the bigger they are, the more juice you get. But manufacturers also know that the buyer has big numbers, and sometimes indicates absolutely fantastic values.

Finally, pay attention to the richness of the package, and you can go to the checkout to pay for the device you like.

Tip 2: How to choose an inexpensive and functional juicer

Only freshly squeezed juices contain the same amount of nutrients that vegetables and fruits contained. To fully satisfy your family's fresh juice needs, this kitchen appliance it may be inexpensive, but it is better if it is also functional.

What is important to know when choosing a juicer

First, decide what juices you will drink. In the event that the choice is limited to tangerine, lemon, orange and grapefruit, you will have a citrus juicer, the feature of which will be a faceted cone, which, when rotated, squeezes the juice from a half of a citrus fruit pressed against it by a cut. The cost of such kitchen appliances, designed for fast cooking a glass of juice will amount to several hundred rubles.

In the event that the range of fruits and vegetables is wide, you will need to purchase a good universal one that also has some additional functions. The price of such a juicer will be higher, but its capabilities will be much wider. Reviews and buyers published on the Internet make it possible to determine the necessary and sufficient set of functions for these devices.

The larger the pulp tank, the less often it will need to be cleaned during the juice extraction process.

Choice of citrus juicers

Cheap you can buy a mechanical citrus juicer, but its cost is quite comparable to inexpensive electric models. Given that the inside of citrus fruits is quite soft, 25-30 W is enough for productive work juicers, so there is no need to purchase a more powerful one, and therefore more expensive. In the price category up to 1 thousand rubles, you can choose devices that turn on when you press the cone, have a reverse mode and a regulator of the amount of pulp added to the juice. When choosing, pay attention that the bottom of the jug is equipped with rubber for greater stability. This functionality is quite enough to make it convenient and pleasant for you to use the juicer.

When choosing a juicer, give preference to models whose juice collection jug has a larger volume.

Choosing Inexpensive All-Purpose Juicers

Since these devices are designed to process both hard and soft vegetables and fruits, it is better that the universal juicer has at least two speeds. As for power, 200-500 W will be enough for a high-quality spin. Check that the kit includes a citrus press, the press method of squeezing allows you to squeeze much more juice out of an orange. The kit should include a special brush for cleaning the centrifuge, and the instrument stand should have a rubberized base for stability. A metal mesh microfilter and a direct juice supply system will not be superfluous. A juicer with such functions will cost about 2 thousand rubles.

Freshly squeezed citrus juices are healthy, tasty and able to restore strength. To cook them at home, it is enough to purchase a special juicer.

You will need

• - oranges or grapefruits;
• - citrus press.

Instruction

Choose a citrus juicer if you only plan to make orange juice. Compared to universal units, it is quite inexpensive. The juicer can be electric or mechanical. Its device is simple - a motor, a cone-shaped nozzle, a container for collecting juice.

Determine how much power you need. Juicers can have a power of 200-800 watts. The speed of obtaining juice will depend on this characteristic. They should have a rotation regulator. The optimal rotation speed is 8000-10000 rpm. If the speed is low, the juice output will also be less. High speed - you get juice in which there is a lot of pulp.

Inspect the design of the spout of the container into which the resulting juice is collected. The spout should be comfortable in order to pour the resulting juice. The body of the device can be plastic or stainless steel. It is better to choose steel ones - they are more durable and will not cause unwanted chemical reactions.

Examine the juice collection tank. If you are into orange juice cocktails, you should choose a tank with a measuring scale. Some device models have useful feature, which allows you to adjust the amount of pulp in the prepared juice. This is possible if you adjust the width of the slots on the nozzle - the narrower they are, the less pulp will be in the juice.

note

Not so long ago, models of juicers began to appear, in which the juice supply system is direct, which allows you to pour freshly prepared juice directly into the glass. So you can get exactly the portion of juice that you need - and this is very important, since freshly squeezed citrus juice is good for drinking for a very short time. Within twenty minutes after preparation, the beneficial properties of it disappear, so you should drink the juice immediately after squeezing. In addition, it will not be necessary to additionally pour the juice from one container to another and then wash the juicer tank.

Useful advice

In order to make a glass of juice in a standard citrus juicer, you need a couple of juicy oranges. In inexpensive models, oranges will have to be held by hand, but you can also purchase one where there is a special holder. Some devices are equipped with removable nozzles, which can be of different sizes and purposes. It is better to choose a model that has an alternating rotation mode - it will help you get more juice.

Freshly squeezed juices are healthy and tasty. To make them available at any time, many seek to purchase a juicer. There are a lot of juicer models, and you can get confused when deciding which one is better.

You will need

• - consultation of the seller;
• - vegetables or fruits.

Instruction

On the modern market There are many models of juicers. With some of them you can get portions of juice for immediate consumption, others allow you to prepare juice for future use. There are professional and household juicers, for both soft and hard fruits, for those that require cutting and those that can be processed without even cleaning. When deciding which juicer will be best for you, you must first determine for what purpose you need it.

If your family is small, one compact model that dispenses one serving of juice per cycle will be ideal for you. Those who are going to drink only orange juice should not spend money on a universal juicer - a model for processing citrus fruits is perfect for you.

If you are going to use different vegetables and fruits to make juice, it is better to choose a universal juicer. The choice of such a model allows you to get juice in any quantities from many varieties of vegetables and fruits. These juicers, as a rule, have several speeds, their motor speed can be adjusted, and this allows you to choose the best extraction mode for a particular product.

In order to process a large amount of fruits and vegetables, for example, for harvesting for the winter, there are special devices that can work with the calculation of rather large volumes. They can also work for a long time. Simple Models are not designed for a long operating time, and with the help of universal devices, products can be processed for a long time without turning off the machine.

Some juicers are equipped with skimmers that allow you to get clean, clear juice. There are models that have special wringing holes in the bottom of the waste receiving container. It is necessary to pay attention to the presence of small pleasant additions, such as a lid for a tray where fruits are served, brushes for cleaning, and other little things to facilitate the operation of a juicer.

note

When choosing a juicer, it is better to give preference to a well-known manufacturer - domestic or foreign. However, it should be remembered that domestic brands there are not many such devices. As for universal foreign models, they are not intended for harvesting for future use in large volumes.

Useful advice

When choosing a juicer, you need to pay attention to some points. For example, the distance from the bottom of the neck to the grater - the amount of juice obtained depends on it. Another important characteristic is the type of separator. It can be conical or cylindrical. The latter has the advantage of being able to produce more juice, but it requires frequent manual cleaning of the pressed products. With a conical separator, less juice is obtained, but the juicer can not be stopped, because the cleaning method is slightly different here.

Tip 5: How to choose a juicer for hard fruits and vegetables

Freshly squeezed juice contains just a huge amount of vitamins and, of course, is much more beneficial for the body than purchased. You can make such a drink at home, including from solid vegetables and fruits, using a juicer.

The range of juicers in specialized stores today is quite wide. When buying such a device, first of all, you should pay attention to its power. For hard vegetables and fruits, it is worth choosing a juicer in which this parameter reaches at least 5-8, and even better 10 thousand rpm.

Varieties of devices

The industry today produces two main types of juicers: designed for citrus and universal. To make juice from solid vegetables and fruits, of course, you need to choose a device of the latest variety. The first type of juicers can be used exclusively for processing oranges, tangerines, grapefruits and some other soft fruits.

Universal devices, in turn, are divided into:

• screw;
• centrifugal.

Both of these types of juicers for hard vegetables and fruits are very good.

Screw models

Such juicers, in turn, are vertical and horizontal. Rotating augers, similar to those used in meat grinders, are responsible for processing vegetables and fruits. If desired, for the home, you can purchase both electric and manual model of this type.

The main advantage of the devices of this variety is that the vegetables and fruits in them do not heat up during the spin cycle. Thanks to this, using such models, you can prepare real natural juice, in which absolutely all useful substances are preserved.

Doctors, for example, even consider such a product to be curative. At least, the benefits of such juice for the human body are undeniable.

Also, the advantages of devices of this type are:

• silent operation;
• the possibility of squeezing juice, including from very hard vegetables and fruits, or even greens;
• high degree of productivity - up to 50 kg of products per hour;
• high yield of the finished product - up to 95%.

Some of the disadvantages of this type of juicers are the high cost and the need for fairly fine pre-cutting.

Centrifugal juicers

Such models, unlike screw ones, work on the principle of a grater. The fruits that got inside such a juicer are preliminarily rubbed into gruel. Then they pass through a sieve. The advantages of centrifugal models primarily include:

• low cost;
• clean and transparent freshly squeezed juice;
• ease of care;
• high speed of preparation of the product;
• no need for preliminary fine cutting.

Consumers consider the main disadvantage of models of this type to be that the juice oxidizes during extraction. As a result, it, unfortunately, loses some of its useful properties. In addition, such juice cannot be stored for too long in the future.

Also, their very noisy operation can be attributed to rather serious shortcomings of centrifugal devices. Another disadvantage of this type of juicers is considered to be low performance. It takes a long time to make juice in such devices. That is, for example, for processing crops from your own garden, you should not buy a juicer of this type. In this case, it is better to buy a more productive screw model.
