What can I juice with a BioChef 
Synergy and what should I avoid?
The BioChef Synergy can juice 
just about all types of fruits and 
vegetables. It is not a food processor 
so do not place any of the following 
in the juicer:
•  hard coconut fibre – soft, young 

flesh is ok 

•  seeds 
•  unsoaked/roasted nuts
•  legumes 
•  sugar cane 
•  frozen ingredients  - for sorbet 

remove fruit from freezer 5-10 
minutes before using. 

•  fish or meat 
•  liquorice root or other woody 

materials 

•  dried herbs and spices 
•  stone fruit with stones in
•  olives

What’s the best way to prepare nuts 
for making nut milks?
We recommend raw almonds as 
the best nut (although it is actually 
classified as a kernel) for making 
milks with. All nuts should be soaked 
for at least 8 hours and then rinsed 
thoroughly. Feed the soaked nuts 
simultaneously with water into the 
juicer. We have found that 250g of 
nuts makes about a litre of milk with 
a good consistency. Of course this 
is all down to personal preference. 
Simply add more nuts / less water 

for a creamier milk, or less nuts / 
more water for a thinner milk.

Switch the BioChef Synergy on and 
start placing handfuls of nuts into the 
feeding chute whilst slowly pouring 
the water in at the same time. The 
goal is to be placing the last nuts 
into the feeding chute just as the 
water runs out. This may take a few 
tries to get right but the results are 
worth it. Other nuts worth trying 
either in combination with almonds 
or alone are brazil, macadamia, 
hazelnut, walnut and pecan. We also 
recommend adding agave syrup, 
maple syrup, cacao nibs, dates (with 
stones removed), apple juice, vanilla 
or cinnamon as sweetners and 
flavour enhancers. 

PLEASE NOTE

: Use only raw nuts, not 

roasted and ensure that you always 
soak the nuts for a minimum of eight 
hours before feeding into your juicer.

Can I grind seeds, grains or legumes 
with the BioChef Synergy?
No. The BioChef Synergy Slow 
Juicer is not a grinder and using 
this machine as such will void the 
warranty.

Can the BioChef Synergy make cold 
press olive oil?
No. This is a different process 
to juicing and requires different 
machinery.
