Drinking fresh juice is the healthiest and nutritious way of starting a day. Compared to pre-packed juices, they have more nutrients and minerals.
Having a juicer at home lets you make juices anytime you want – without making your hands or kitchen platform messy.
Though purchasing juicer mixer is not a major investment, it is still better to understand the specifications and your requirements.
Wondering how to choose a juicer? We have mentioned few factors below…
1. Type – Based on their juicing technology, juicers are categorized into three types.
- Centrifugal Juicers – Suitable for extracting juices from vegetables and juices. But not efficient in juicing leafy greens, wheat grass and herbs.
- Masticating or Cold Press Juicers – They are also known as slow juicers as they take more time to extract juice than centrifugal juicers. But they are also capable of juicing wheat grass, herbs, greens, fruits and vegetables.
- Twin Gear – As the name suggests, two gears are provided closely to each other. They rotate at low speed to extract juice from the food produce. Compared to above two types, they are slow but can retain more nutrients.
2. Speed Levels
Choosing a juicer model with multiple speeds can be beneficial. Slow speed levels are perfect for juicing soft food produce like fruits. High speed levels are suitable for hard food ingredients like vegetables, coconut and others.
3. Yield Amount
Juicers that take less time for juicing retain less yield amount. If you want maximum yield amount, you should go for masticating or twin gear juicer models. As they not only yield more amount but also retain maximum nutrients. Centrifugal juicers take less time for juicing so they extract less yield and less nutrients as well.
