• always use fresh fruits and vegetables since they are
more juicy.
• press soft fruits and vegetables slowly, by doing that
you achieve the best extracting result.
• It's recommended to drink the juice immediately after
preparation, since the quality is best then. It will
deteriorate fast when getting in contact with the air.
the taste and colour will be influenced. apple­ and
pear juice will quickly turn brown, but by adding some
drops of lemon this can be avoided.
• the sooner the juice is being consumed, the more
vitamins it contains.
• fresh juice must be diluted when serving children (1:1).
• the juice from dark­green (broccoli, spinach etc) or
dark­red (beetroot, red cabbage etc) vegetables is very
strong and should always be diluted.
• fruits that are rich in starch such as papaya, avocado,
bananas, figs etc are not suitable for the extractor. We
recommend that you use food processor or blender for
best result.
• apples, pears, beets, pineapple, oranges, grapes,
carrots, melons, tomatoes and cucumber are especially
suitable for the juice extractor.
• Leafs and stalks from lettuce can also be pressed in the
juice extractor.
