FAQ for Slow Juicer
A slow juicer is a kitchen appliance that is used for juicing. The name says it all: The food is crushed very slowly. This has the advantage, for example, that more nutrients are retained and more juice can be pressed
Since slow juicers are usually priced higher than centrifugal juicers, the question naturally arises as to whether the investment is worth it. The answer is yes, it is worth it. Slow juicers work more slowly and thus more gently than centrifugal juicers. This means, among other things, that more nutrients are retained in the pressed set.
There is a whole range of fruits from which delicious juice can be made. To begin with, the most popular types of fruit for the slow juicer are classics such as apples and oranges. Pineapple juice and tomato juice are also popular. Cherries, lemons and other citrus fruits are also suitable for the slow juicer. If you like berries, you should definitely try blueberries, blackberries and raspberries. Papaya, for example, is particularly exotic.
Which slow juicer is the best depends on your needs, including how much juice you want to squeeze. To help you choose, we have created a product guide in which we suggest high-quality slow juicers
Unfortunately, not every type of fruit can be pressed unconditionally with a slow juicer: You should be careful with avocados, bananas, figs, mangoes and peaches. Figs, avocados and bananas are not suitable at all, but can be drunk in smoothies, for example. The other fruits should have a special degree of ripeness, so inform yourself about this if you plan to juice them.
A slow juicer is a particularly gentle juicer, so you can enjoy juices with as many nutrients and vitamins as possible.
