Before you begin using your Juicer, there are a number of things you should consider for getting
the most out of your juicer.
• We strongly suggest using “fresh” fruits & vegetables. When they are in season, they taste better.
• Gradually push the food plunger slowly so you can extract the maximum amount of juice.
• Any fruits or vegetables that have a “rough” skin, we suggest peeling them first.
• The juicer is best used when you have removed as many seeds and pits as possible prior to
juicing.
• Cleaning can be easy by placing a plastic bag in the waster collection container.
• DO NOT pour liquids through the juicer.
• DO NOT use fruits or vegetables when they are at the height of ripeness.
• DO NOT freeze juice or pulps longer than one month.
• We suggest only leaving your juice refrigerated for 1 day, after that it begins to sour.
• Bundle herbs, sprouts and leafy green vegetables together for best results. You can even wrap
them in a lettuce leaf.
• Root ginger adds great taste to all sorts of juice recipes.
• It is best to store fruits and harder vegetables at room temperature. More delicate foods should
be refrigerated.
• Feel free to empty the pulp container while juicing - just make sure you turn the JUICE GURU
“off.”
We strongly advise NOT to juice the following: Avocado, Rhubarb, Leek, Eggplant, Winter
Squash, Banana, Coconut, Figs, Mango, Papaya. Use a Food Processor or Blender to
process.
By eating a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables (green, yellow/orange, red, blue/purple, and
white) you are giving your body a wide range of nutrients that are important for good health.
Each color offers something unique, like different vitamins, minerals, and disease-fighting
phytochemicals, that work together to protect your health.
COMMON QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS
Do I need to prepare fruits and vegetables for juicing?
Yes, but preparation is minimal. Simply wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before use, peel
any fruits with hard skin and remove seeds and pits.
Is there any order to juicing fruit and vegetables?
When juicing a variety of fruits and vegetables, always alternate between soft and hard ingredients.
Hard fruits, such as apples, clean out the micromesh filter, enabling the next item to be extracted
efficiently. Always end with a hard fruit as this makes cleaning the mesh filter basket very easy.
Can I juice the whole orange?
Oranges and other citrus fruits can be juiced whole, but always peel them first. For extra-frothy
orange juice, keep your oranges in the fridge before juicing.
What can I do with the residual pulp?
The pulp left from juicing is rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals. It can be used to bulk out hamburger
patties and thicken up soups and casseroles. Pulp will also add flavor to muffins, flans, mousse,
strudel and cakes. You can even use pulp in the garden as compost. Regular juicers will create
enough pulp for a worm-farm.
Can I store freshly squeezed juice in the refrigerator?
All freshly squeezed juices are best consumed immediately after juicing - the longer they sit the
more nutrients they lose. Juice is also at its most delicious when fresh.
Are the Juicer parts dishwasher safe?
The juice cover, filter bowl, pulp container, stainless steel filter basket and juice pitcher can all be
placed in the dishwasher (on the top shelf only). Alternatively, keep your juicer clean by rinsing all
of the removable parts under running water immediately after use.
