It is known that even the most "tested" brands of juices are inferior in quality to a freshly squeezed home-made drink. In addition, it will be much tastier and he althier. Such juices, rich in microelements and vitamins, will help to prepare universal juicers. What makes them different from other kitchen appliances? This article will help you figure it out.
Freshly squeezed juices can be prepared from various fruits and berries. Many people like drinks made from vegetables, such as carrots, cabbage, beets. You can get a tasty and fragrant liquid from citrus fruits. In order to always be able to drink a he althy drink made from your favorite fruits or vegetables, we advise you to have a juicer in your kitchen. Such a device can easily handle both hard carrots and tender strawberries.
Universal juicers come in different types. The main distinguishing feature is the centrifugal separator, with the help of which, in fact, the pulp is separated from the liquid.
Cylindrical cage
Juicersuniversal ones of this kind help to get a larger (compared to other models) volume of the drink - over 90%. However, this design does not have the function of discarding the pulp. With this device, you can easily prepare tomato juice or drinks from vegetables with a thick concentration. However, the big disadvantage of this unit is that after receiving 2-3 glasses of squeezed liquid, it becomes necessary to clean the separator from the cake.
Conical cage
Universal juicers of this design collect the resulting cake in a special container. However, the yield of the finished drink is not higher than 70%. The large container makes cleaning and pulp removal less frequent. This is convenient when processing a large number of fruits.
The power of universal juicers varies from 200 to 800 watts. When choosing a similar unit, you should pay attention to the speed controller, because for fruits of different densities it is better to select the appropriate speed mode. If the speed is too low, there will be little juice, and if the speed is too high, the drink will be oversaturated with pulp.
Look closely at the centrifuge grid. It is advisable to purchase a device with a stainless steel grate, because parts made of softer alloys will quickly fail.
Juicers are divided by performance. In the West, models that can prepare a couple of glasses of a drink for all family members, for example, for breakfast, are in great demand. Our compatriots love to harvest the resulting juice for the future. Therefore, they will need devices with higher performance.
Prices
What else should you know about universal juicers? Prices for these devices range from $50 to $500 on average. Among the manufacturers of inexpensive machines, one can name the company VITEK. The universal Bosch juicer belongs to the middle price range. It has more performance and power than cheaper devices.
Luxury juicers, such as Bork, have many additional features. Titanium filters in their design can last for many years. The strainer's turbo blowing system allows you to cope with the peel and bones. The device can also squeeze he althy juice from fresh herbs and greens.
