PART 4: USEFUL TIPS AND ADVICE
• Only use fresh fruit and vegetables that contain the most juice.
• For preparing juices, you can use various types of vegetables: carrot, cucumbers, beetroot, celery, spinach,
tomatoes or fruit: apples, citruses, grapes, strawberries, pineapple, etc.
• We recommend that berry fruits are washed before processing because they quickly lose their freshness.
• It is not necessary to remove thin peels of fruits and vegetables. It is only necessary to remove thick peels
like for example on bananas, beetroot, citruses, etc.
• When preparing apple juice, remember that the fi nal amount of juice depends on the variety and age of the
apples.
• Always remove stones from fruit as they could damage the appliance.
• It is also possible to process lettuce, spinach and fresh herbs using the appliance. These additions are
excellent for livening up the fl avour of vegetable or fruit juices.
• The appliance is designed in such a way as to retain the maximum amount of nutrients and vitamins. Juice
produced in this way contains pulp and therefore is usually slightly opaque.
• Drink the juice immediately after it is made. Keeping it for a longer time in open air results in loss of fl avour
and nutrition of the juice.
• The prepared juice is very concentrated. We recommend that you drink it with a small amount of water.
• Apple juice darkens very quickly in open air. We recommend that you add several drops of fresh citrus juice
to slow down the darkening process.
• If you will be storing the juice in a refrigerator, always pour it into a clean container with a lid so that it does
not take on surrounding odours.
• We do not recommend storing it in a metal container as this can negatively affect its taste.
• The juicer is not designed for processing very hard and fi brous foods, such as for example coconut or quince.
