Juicing Tips and Techniques

Purchasing and Storing Fruits & Vegetables
• Always wash fruits and vegetables
before juicing.
• Always use fresh fruits and vegetables
for juicing.
• To save money and obtain fresher
produce, purchase fruits or vegetables
that are in season.
• Keep your fruits and vegetables ready
for juicing by washing them before
storing.
Preparing Fruits & Vegetables
• It is recommended that fruits or veg-
etables, such as oranges, melons, or
mangoes, are peeled before placing in
juice extractor to minimize impact on
juice flavor.
• All fruits with pits and large seeds
such as nectarines, peaches, apri-
cots, plums and cherries MUST be
pitted before juicing.

Using The Pulp

• The remaining pulp left after juicing
fruits or vegetables is mostly fiber
and cellulose which, like the juice,
contains vital nutrients necessary for
the daily diet and can be used in
many ways. However, like the juice,
pulp should be used that day to
avoid loss of vitamins.
Soy Milk, Almond Milk, and Rice Milk
Your juice extractor may be used to
make soy milk, almond milk and rice
milk. One cup of soybeans, almonds or
rice must be soaked in four cups of
water for 24-48 hours in the refrgerator.
Slowly pour one cup of the soaked
mixture at a time into the food chute.
The liquid extracted from the soaked
mixture is the "milk."

• Most fruits and hardier type vegeta-
bles can be stored at cool room
temperature. The more delicate and
perishable items such as tomatoes,
berries, leafy greens, celery, cucum-
bers and herbs should be stored in
the refrigerator until required.
Hint!
Your juice extractor makes invigorating,
frothy orange juice. Simply peel the oranges
and juice. For best results, refrigerate
oranges before juicing.
• There are a number of recipes that
use pulp. You can also use pulp to
thicken casseroles or soups.
• Pulp is great used in the garden
for compost.
NOTES:
• Almonds must be soaked 24-48
hours before juicing.
• Soy milk should be boiled to improve
the flavor.
• Vanilla, honey and sugar may be
added to enhance the flavor of each
milk type.
