this will make it easier to clean.
• Use fresh fruits and vegetables
- they contain more juice than thawed fruits and
vegetables.
• Leafy green vegetables such as cabbage or spinach can be squeezed. Roll out
the cylinder-shaped sheets of an appropriate size before inserting them into the
funnel.
• All types of juices should be consumed
immediately after manufacturing

lasagne, muffins, etc.
