Best Juicers - What to Choose?

 The power of the juicer's motor impacts how effective and durable it is. When you look at juicer specs, look for a figure of around 200 watts. That will indicate a good engine for this kind of kitchen appliance.

The slower a juicer is, the less it will heat or oxidize the juice. Check the rate of rotations per minute on the juicer model you are interested in. The ideal speed is 40 to 80 RPM.

If the space in your kitchen is at a premium, a vertical juicer might be best. You want a juicer that ís stable, but not so heavy that it is hard to move.

What is the best juicer for celery? If you want the maximum nutrition with minimal loss to oxidation and heating the best bet for juicing celery is a twin-gear juicer also, known as triturating stainless steel juicer.

But on the downside, you will be spending twice as much money on the juicer. The price of twin-gear triturating juicer is higher compared to any other type of juicer.

Also assembling them and using them might seem daunting to a newbie juicer. If you are just starting in the world of juicing, you might be better off with a less complicated and less pricey juicer that you will actually use.

As the speed is rather slow there is no oxidation or heating of the juice happening when juicing with a masticating juicer.

Heating, agitation of juice and oxidation are some of the problems of juicing with fast juicers. But a slow juicer does not cause either heating or agitation to cause the destruction of nutrients in the extracted juice.

It retains most of the nutrients - vitamins, minerals and heat sensitive enzymes. Also, this slow nature of juicing results in longer shelf life for the juice without loss of flavors noted with fast juicers.

The Amzchef slow juicer is made from BPA-free plastics. So, there's no need to worry that harmful plastics will leach into juice. Also, all parts are coated with Tritan that prevents oxidation or corrosion.

The masticating juicer comes with a 2-year warranty showing the complete confidence of the makers in their product.

It is slightly heavy to handle, and some foaming was noticed in the juice. Also, the narrow feed tube is a little annoying because of all the chopping you need to do.

A masticating juicer is very quiet while juicing as the noise level is less than 60 dB sound. At that level of noise even sleeping babies will not be disturbed. The reverse operation button will help in untangling and unclogging the juicer.

It also helps in cleaning it up as you can use water to flush out clogged produce. Almost all parts except the mesh screen is dishwasher safe. It is easy to assemble, pull-apart and operate for juicing as the number of parts are few.

AMZCHEF Juicer Review

The Amzchef slow juicer is a compact masticating juicer that handles all types of hard and soft produce with relative ease. With a powerful 150-watt motor the Amzchef slow juicer is able to crush almost any type of hard or soft produce without any issues. It does particularly well with leafy greens. When compared against other masticating juicers it was noted that the juice yield from leafy greens was comparable to some of more expensive juicer models. It produces copious amounts of juice from leafy greens due to its unique juicing technology. It also does well with hard produce like apples, ginger, carrots and pears. But with soft produce it is not that great. It is also good to make baby food. The large pulp bin helps in juicing for longer time without stopping. The Amzchef juicer is also easy to operate with an unique reverse function which helps in easy cleaning and unclogging of machine. Unlike the fast juicers which extract juice at high speeds of over 1500 RPM, the AMZCHEF juicer uses a slow speed technology with a 7-spiral auger that twists the produce at a slow speed of 80 RPM helping to draw out the juice. This helps in extracting every bit of juice and ejection of a very dry pulp. 

Powerful motor and 7-spiral auger design helps the Amzchef slow juicer to juice efficiently and effectively. It rotates at a very slow speed of 80 rpm so neither heat nor oxidation are major problems. Heating and oxidations destroy nutrients in the juice. With the Amzchef slow juicer you can be confident that juice generated is packed with vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other nutrients as very little of it is lost during the juicing process. Slow speed ensures nutrition retention. The slow juicing process also ensures that the juice has longer shelf life and great flavor. In terms of design it looks sleek and modern. The chick looks will help it to integrate with any kitchen design and décor.

But on the other hand you spend more time cutting and chopping the produce so it can fit through the small feed tube.
