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.
