Helpful Tips

Berries and Small Fruits

Juicing berries may seem a bit challenging at first, but once you get the hang  
of it you will love the great flavors they add to your juice. Not to mention the 
health benefits they have to offer. When juicing berries (except cranberries) you 
will need to add something that contains a larger volume of juice such as an 
apple or orange. For example, process the berries first (you may not see a lot of 
juice come out at first), then add an apple or an orange, something that is juicy. 
Once you process this, you will see the berry juice come pouring out. 

Fresh Juice Looks Different...

You will be making FRESH JUICE... With no additives, food coloring or added 
sugar, so it may look different from the commercially processed juice available in 
stores. Fresh juice tends to have a thin layer of foam on top. A quick stir with a 
spoon will incorporate it back into the juice or you may remove it if you prefer. 

The Power of Pulp

We like to say that with the Power Juicer, nothing is wasted, that’s why we have 
also included some easy ”pulp friendly” food recipes for soups, muffins, salsa, and 
more. If you like pulp in your juice, take some from the pulp collector and add it 
back to your juice with a quick stir to mix it in.

Emptying The Pulp Collector

When juicing in large volume be sure to empty the Pulp Collector often. A pulp 
“back up” into the Filter can cause the motor to shut off. Inserting a plastic 
bag inside the Pulp Collector before juicing large quantities makes for quick 
emptying during the process and easy clean up when you’re done.

Following these tips  

your juicing experience  

is sure to be a delightful one!
