What are the advantages and disadvantages of a juice extractor?
It is very beneficial to own a juice extractor. As we said before, this will allow you to consume healthier juices for your health. At a time when manufacturers are increasingly criticized for the different additives that can be found in their juices, extractors appear to be precious machines for those who want to take care of their food. In addition, you should know that with these machines, you will keep the vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and trace elements contained in food. Indeed, thanks to its low speed of rotation, the juice extractor will press the food cold and thus avoid any transformation of these nutrients. Juicers are also low noise and easy to clean and generally have a multitude of options allowing you to make soups, compotes, or sorbets.
However, as with any household appliance, these machines have some drawbacks. The purchase price represents a certain amount for most of us, hence the importance of taking the time to choose the product best suited to our needs. Then the juice extractor can turn out to be quite bulky, although there are models of different sizes. It is therefore necessary to look at the dimensions at the time of purchase. Finally, you will have to cut the fruits and vegetables and it, therefore, requires a little time in front of you.
How to choose your juice extractor?
To succeed in choosing the best possible juice extractor according to your needs, it is important to take into account a multitude of criteria. Once your budget is well defined, you should first look at the dimensions of the device. Thus, no unpleasant surprises during the reception!
Then take a good look at the power of your machine. The more powerful it is, the more efficiently it will squeeze your fruits and vegetables. If your model is not powerful enough for its use, your device may be overheating. Also, think carefully about the type of juice you want to make. For hard fruit or vegetable juices (apples, carrots, fennel, etc.), a vertical extractor will be more suitable thanks to its small size. If you want to squeeze spinach, cabbage, or salad, we recommend that you opt for a horizontal extractor instead. Thanks to its depth, the yield will be much better.
Finally, do not neglect the accessories either. This is even what can tip the scales in favor of a model if you hesitate between two products. Among the accessories frequently offered, we find in particular a pusher, a pulp container, a juice cup, or a recipe book.
How to maintain a juice extractor?
To successfully keep your juice extractor in good condition over time, regular maintenance is essential. You must first read the instructions for the device. Indeed, each extractor is different, and specific maintenance features may exist. The advice we are going to give you is intended to be general and therefore cannot in any way replace the manufacturer’s recommendations.
The first thing to do to maintain your juice extractor is to clean it after each use. It may seem logical, but it is very easy to forget or be tempted to postpone this task until the next day. To clean it, you must therefore disassemble the device and put each part (except the one containing the motor) in the water. Using a cloth, you can rub these different parts and then rinse with clean water. Once done, don’t forget to dry it and then reassemble it.
About once a month, we recommend that you do a more thorough cleaning. Once again, you need to take the device apart first. You can then mix water and baking soda in a bowl and soak the different parts of the device (except the one containing the motor) for a while. With a sponge, do not hesitate to rub every nook to make sure the extractor is clean. You can then rinse the device and dry it. You just have to reassemble it and it’s all good!
As you can see, it is not very long and restrictive to clean your juice extractor, but this task really needs to be done on a regular basis for your device to have good longevity and optimal performance.
