Practical everyday tips
l
Use fresh products as they have the most juice. Food products such as pineapple, beetroot, cel -
ery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melon, tomato, pomegranate, citrus and seedless
grapes are particularly suitable for processing in the appliance.
l
You do not have to remove thin peel from products, peel off thick peel from products such as oranges,
pineapple, uncooked beetroot. Also remove white flesh found directly under the peel of citrus, it has a
bitter taste.
l
When preparing apple juice, remember that the type of apples affects density of the juice. Apple juice
goes brown fast, to reduce this effect, add a few drops of lemon juice to the juice. This will slow down
juice browning.
l
Products such as bananas, papayas, avocados, figs or mangoes are not suitable for processing in
the appliance. It is recommended to use a hand blender or a food processor for processing this type
of fruit.
l
Stalks and leaves (for example, lettuce or cabbage) may also be processed in the appliance.
l
The produced juice should be consumed as soon as possible. The juice loses its original taste and
nutritional value in prolonged contact with air.
l
To obtain as much juice out of the products as possible, slowly press the products with a pusher.
l
The appliance is not suitable for processing hard, fibrous and/or starchy products, such as sugar
cane.
l
It is not recommended to reprocess the extracted pulp. This causes dense pulp clot in the juice outlet.
