FAQs
Do I need to refrigerate fruits and
vegetables before juicing them?
Apart from tasting better when
juiced, refrigerated fruits and
vegetables will provide a higher
yield of juice than room temperature
produce. This is because the fibre
in refrigerated produce is firmer
when chilled and consequently
provides more juice when crushed
compared to softer or warmer fruits
and vegetables, which may also be in
a partial stage of dehydration (losing
water content).
What’s the best way to prepare
fruits, vegetables and leafy greens
for juicing in the Biochef Atlas Pro?
VEGETABLES
We recommend preparing your
vegetables by cutting them into
pieces that will simply fall through
the feeding chute without assistance.
FRUITS
We recommend preparing your fruits
by cutting them into pieces that will
simply fall through the feeding chute
without assistance. We recommend
removing skins from most citrus
fruits although one third of the skin of
lemons and limes may be left on.
LEAFY GREENS
Roll leaves into parcels and then fold
them in half, ensuring that the parcels
will simply fall through the feeding
chute without assistance. You may
notice with some leafy greens that
they can cause the BioChef Atlas
Pro to clog. This can be remedied
by adding a few pieces of carrot or
other fibrous vegetables, which will
help to push through the leafy green
material. Also, wet leaves will not pass
through the juicer as well as drier
leaves, so when washing produce,
pat dry with a kitchen towel before
inserting into the BioChef Atlas Pro.
The vertical crushing and squeezing
mechanism of the juicer means
that the smaller you cut the pieces
before you feed them into the shoot,
the less likely that the fibres will
become tangled around the internal
mechanism. For best results cut your
ingredient into 3 - 5cm pieces.
What are the best apples for juicing?
We find that fresh and chilled green
apples are the best. Nutritionally,
green apples contain various
antioxidants, are a good source of
vitamin C and are considered to
be able to prevent the formation of
gall stones in the bladder and help
remedy liver and kidney disorders.
Do I need to peel citrus for juicing?
We recommend peeling the skin
from mandarins, oranges and
grapefruit prior to juicing as the skin
has a bitter taste and this will transfer
through to the juice. The skin of
lemons and limes do not have this
bitter flavour and as such can be
