TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Quick tips

Before juicing:
• Thoroughly wash your fruits and
vegetables, making sure they are
free of soil, leaves, and stems. Small
leaves, such as on strawberries, do
not have to be removed.
• To avoid damaging the juicer, do not
juice frozen fruits or vegetables. For
optimal performance, always use fresh
fruits and vegetables.
• Large seeds or pits must be removed
prior to juicing to avoid damage to the
auger or screens. This includes fruits
such as; nectarines, peaches, mangoes,
apricots, plums, cherries, etc.
• Always peel fruits with hard or inedible
skins. Examples include mangoes, citrus
fruits, melons, and pineapples.
• Some vegetables, such as cucumbers
or yellow squash, do not have to be
peeled first, depending on the softness
of the skin and recipe requirements.
Leaving the peels on will change the
color and flavor of the finished juices.
While juicing:
• For optimum results, insert one piece
of ingredients at a time.
• When juicing celery with other fruits/
vegetables, it is recommended to
interchange the celery with other
items to prevent pulp build-up inside
the juice bowl.
• When juicing leafy greens like spinach
and kale, it is recommended to juice
with a combination of watery or fibrous
fruits and vegetables to help with juice
flow and to increase juice yield.
• You should not juice bananas.
• For less foam build-up and seeds/particles
in your juice, use the foam screen to
strain these sediments before they go
into the juice.
After juicing:
• Saved pulp can be used for other
recipes, as compost for your garden,
or can be discarded.
For easy cleanup:
• As you juice, clean parts to avoid dried-on
juice and pulp.
• After each use, immediately rinse
removable parts in hot water to remove
pulp and juice. It may be necessary to use
the cleaning brush to remove pulp from
the screen. Let parts air dry.
