Why a juice extractor?

Everyone knows the advice to eat 2 pieces of fruit and 250 grams of vegetables a day. With a 40-hour working week, a busy social life and children who want a bit of attention from you, it is easy to forget to be healthy. The fact remains that we would all like to meet the 2 pieces of fruit and 250 grams of vegetables a day.

To make it easier on ourselves and make an effort to follow the advice, we sometimes buy a juice from the supermarket. Did you know that it is very easy to make such a juice yourself? This way you know exactly what you put in it and you can be sure that the juice is free from hidden sugars. How do you make a fresh juice? With the help of a juicer!

What is a juice extractor?

A juice extractor grates fruit and vegetables at high speed by spinning. A juice extractor has two outlets: one for the pulp and one for the juice. The pulp is thus separated from the juice, which makes the juice very clear. The juice is in no way comparable to a smoothie, which has a somewhat thicker texture. So with a juicer, you can make a delicious fresh juice in no time.

Juice extractors are often particularly suitable for soft ingredients with a high moisture content. The big advantage of a juicer is that you do not need to peel fruit and vegetables first because a juicer has a large filling opening. In short: with a juicer you can enjoy delicious fresh juice full of vitamins in no time!

What do you have to bear in mind?

If you are looking for a juicer, there are a number of things you need to consider. An important one is the power of the juicer. In general, the higher the power, the easier and faster fruit and vegetables will be juiced. Do you often make large quantities of juice, using lots of hard fruit and vegetables? Then we would definitely recommend a high-powered juicer.

There are also a number of other things to choose from. You can choose an aluminium or stainless steel juicer, for example, as these stand more firmly on the countertop than a plastic model. Some juicers also have a foam separator that, as the name suggests, separates the foam from the juice. This keeps the juice clear and prevents the formation of a foam layer. Another consideration: do you want a juicer with or without a drip stop?

Solis Juice Fountain Compact

The Solis Juice Fountain Compact is, as the name suggests, a compact juicer. The juicer is made from stainless steel and has a safety lever. The powerful juicer has an output of 1,200 watts. With 10,000 to 16,000 rotations per minute, fruit and vegetables are quickly converted into vitamin-rich juice. The rubber feet on the bottom of the machine ensure that the machine remains safe during use.

You can choose between 4 different speed settings. This way you can spin both hard and soft pieces of fruit or vegetables. With the rotary knob you can easily choose the speed you want, depending on the piece of fruit or vegetable you put in the filling shaft. After your juice has been produced, you can close the spout. This way, the juicer will not drip.
