How to Find a Suitable Juicer

By Layla Smith

There are so many juicing machines around these days it is difficult to choose a suitable one. I initially became addicted to juicing when I purchased a Lalanne Power Juicer. Many people frequently buy a juicer that is not suitable for their needs.

It is important to realize the reason for buying a juicer and then go looking for one. Since fruit and vegetable juicing machines are different from wheat grass juicers it is important differentiate the two. I would advise writing a list of all the features you want in a machine prior to going out and buying one.

There are many varieties of juicers around in the market. It can often be confusing trying to choose between a centrifugal juicer, a masticating machine, and a twin gear juicer. By far the most common and most affordable are the centrifugal juicers. They process fruits and vegetables at very high speeds and are very effective. They are, however, unsuitable for foods like spinach, wheat grass and lettuce.

Juicers with single or twin blades are often advised in order to avoid any juice going to waste. For these varieties, special kinds of juicers are available. The Miracle-mj 500 electric juicer is one of the types widely available in the shops today. They are cheap and contain no aluminum parts, making them particularly easy to disassemble and operate. Low speed machines reduce the oxidation of the fruit and make a higher quality juice.

It is important to check the warranty on offer before buying your juicer. Most quality juicers should offer between 5 to 10 years on the warranty. As the cutting blade wears out roughly after 2 to 4 months of use, proper checks should be performed before any purchasing.

Have a look at the percentage yield of the appliance. This will give you an idea of the output and efficiency. Ideally you want a lot less waste and more juice. I would suggest buying an appliance with a power output of about four hundred and twenty watts. The heat from higher powered motors can damage the juice by oxidation.

A branded machine like the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer is often a better buy than a non-branded appliance. The reason being replacement parts are often more easily available and often a lot cheaper.

Many juicers are multi-functional as they can be used for making different foods besides juicing vegetables and fruit. They can be used to produce pasta, nut butters and ice cream as well as many other foods. They really are quite versatile machines. - 17274
