Best Slow Juicers UK
If you would prefer to make your own fruit and vegetable smoothies, nut milks and nut butters, baby food, ice cream from frozen fruits, juice from wheatgrass and other medicinal herbs/sprouts and tofu, then there is no better appliance to do this than a slow juicer.
In contrast to the tearing extraction and high speeds of centrifugal juicers, slow juicers function at lower speeds and gently compress fruit and vegetables to “press” out their juice. It uses an auger to press the fruit with a twist and screw action at low rotational speed, eliminating heat and has lower friction.
The result is visible with more homogenised fruit, vegetable or smoothie that does not separate so quickly and no foaming or frothing in the process of making the juice. It also meaning the juice is cold pressed with the living nutrients and enzymes intact, preserving the vital nutrients extracted from your produce. Giving you a fuller and more nutritions drink.
A research by Michelson Laboratories Inc, Korean Food Research Instutiute and internal labs to measure the nutritional values in a cold press compared to centrifugal juicer revealed that cold press juicers extract up to 42% more vitamin C, up to 60% more vitamin A and yield 35% – 50% more juice compared to centrifugal juices.
Which Juicer Are You?
So if you’re in the market for a new juicer, these are some of the things to think about:
- I just want fruit juice, quick and relatively easy cleaning – Centrifugal Juicer
- I want high quality juice – Slow Juicer
- I want to be able to extract nut milks – Slow Juicer
- I only ever drink orange juice but I want it fresh in the mornings – Citrus Juicer
There are two type of slow juicer currently in the market right now and they are the horizontal slow juicer and the vertical slow juicer. The juicing action on both of these juicers are pretty much the same, only the direction of flow differs. Both are fed via the fruit chute from the top down offering the advantage of gravity so as you feed the produce in the juicer, it will take over and do the juicing, no need to push or press. The vertical version however does make the most of this downward action compare to horizontal juicer.
