In this product group, we offer juicers and citrus presses, with which you will enjoy 100% real juice, freshly squeezed from fresh fruits and vegetables, every day.
A distinction is rarely made between a juicer and a citrus press, so it is important to first clarify the differences between the two items.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A JUICER AND A CITRUS PRESS?
The juicer works with softer fruits, automatically separating the skins, peels and larger particles. The juice is obtained after the fruits are centrifuged through a very fine mesh (filter), which separates the liquid from the skins. The juicer creates a larger amount of juice.
The citrus press is used to squeeze juice from citrus fruits, which are cut in half before being placed in the press. By applying pressure, the soft part is squeezed out, while the peel remains. It is necessary to hold the fruit with your hand.
Do you want 100% natural juice with the vitamins, freshness, and aroma of fresh fruit? You can't find it in the store, although there are many manufacturers who boast that they offer exactly that. You can only drink such juice if you prepare it yourself. Then the juicer comes to your rescue.
In order to obtain ecologically clean products for the body, the presence of this appliance in the kitchen is of strategic importance. In this sense, its purchase becomes a wise investment that pays off many times over time with its contribution to healthy eating.
JUICE EXTRACTORS
Not only does a juicer save you money, but homemade juices are also much healthier and tastier. As we mentioned, even the most expensive “natural” store-bought juices are made with ground fruit puree (about 10%) and water (90%). What’s even worse is that to make up for the lack of fruit, they add a huge amount of sugar or aspartame to sweeten it.
Now comes the question of what kind of juicer to buy. We will help you make an informed choice.
If you don't have stomach problems and want to make juice – quickly, easily, and without having to spend a lot of time washing the juicer – then you can go for the cheaper option – a citrus juicer. You just have to wash the fruits, cut them in half, put them in the device and the juice is ready.
Unfortunately, this type of juicer is not suitable for juicing other fruits, vegetables, and herbs. A more expensive and multifunctional one with a centrifuge can do the job.
We have models of both types, so you can safely make your choice. The variety lies in the power, technical characteristics, design and colors.
And in order to be as helpful as possible, we will introduce you to the answers to some frequently asked questions.
- Is it necessary to peel the fruits before putting them in the juicer?
It is not necessary. However, it is recommended to remove the stones from the fruit before placing them in the appliance, as they can damage the fine filter through which the juice is squeezed.
- How much juice can be made without having to clean the appliance?
The amount depends mostly on the capacity of the juicer. In principle, you can make juice until the container for large particles (peels, flakes) is full.
- Does it matter what speed is used for different fruits?
It is recommended to use the slower speed for soft fruits and the faster speed for hard fruits.
CITRUS PRESSES
Citrus presses are mainly intended for fresh juices. As their name suggests, they are used to work with citrus fruits. This is the best device if you want to squeeze fresh juice, which will cost you much less than the so-called natural juices in the store. Citrus presses are not in the category of expensive tools, but nevertheless, the approach to choosing them should not be underestimated. Before buying this kitchen helper, you should reasonably assess how much you will need it. First of all, answer the question of how often you plan to make fresh juices. If this will happen several times a week, then focus on small and practical citrus presses that will not take up space in your kitchen. In this case, the wise choice is an electric citrus press, as it saves a lot of time and effort by squeezing the juice from the citrus fruit qualitatively and maximally. However, if you are thinking of juicing every day, and not only from citrus fruits, but also from other fruits, then the right purchase would be a multifunctional juicer.
When you do decide to get a citrus press, choose a model whose components can be easily disassembled and washed after use, as stuck-on citrus fruit particles are quite difficult to remove.
With us you will find exactly such appliances that are very easy to disassemble and their parts can even be washed in a dishwasher.
Citrus presses and juicers are available at affordable prices and from reputable brands such as PHILIPS, BOSCH, BROWN, GORENJE, CROWN and others.
