How Do Juicers Work? It Depends on the Type of Juice Machine
Juicing has blown up in recent years due to the amazing health benefits and convenience. But if you might be wondering “how does a juicer work?” The answer varies depending on the type of juicer. The four most common types of juicers, each of which we will cover today, are: Centrifugal juicers Masticating juicers Twin gear juicers Cold press juicer machines Let’s dive right into the juicing process of each machine. How Do Centrifugal Juicers Work? The most popular home juicer due to its cheap price, centrifugal juicers shred fruits and vegetables at 6,000-14,000 rotations per minute (RPM). No wonder they’re also known as fast juicers. Produce is fed through a tube until it makes direct contact with the fast-spinning blade. The resulting juice is thrown at high speed towards the sides of the machine by the centrifugal force of a spinning basket. From there, it’s pushed through a sharp screen into a jug or glass. The cheap price and speedy juicing process comes with downsides. The juice from centrifugal juicers tends to separate and break down quickly. And since the produce is essentially being chopped up at super-speed, centrifugal-made juice includes up to 30% solid produce matter (skins, seeds, insoluble fiber, and stems). Centrifugal juicers are best for juicing beginners on a budget who want to put in as little effort as possible. If you want to pre-make juice for later consumption or make large batches, a centrifugal juicer is not for you. It’s better for people who want to make a glass of fresh juice or two to drink right away. You can learn more about the pros and cons of centrifugal juicers here.
