Gastroback DESIGN MULTI JUICER DIGITAL Operating Instructions Manual page 33

• Even some time after operation, the juice may drip from the juice spout of the
juice collector. You can stop dripping by simply turning the drip-stop by 180°
(see: 'Drip-Stop Feature'). However, do not forget to re-open the drip-stop, before
juicing another portion.
• You can keep your working space clean, when holding a sufficiently large tray at
hand for placing the parts of the juicing system on it, when disassembling the juicer.
• The transparent insert in the juice jug (pouring shield) avoids splashing of the juice
during pouring and holds back the froth. You may use the juice jug without the
pouring shield. Simply pull the pouring shield out of the juice jug or push it down
into support within the juice jug as you like.
• When juicing various ingredients with different consistency, you will get the best
results, when alternating hard and soft ingredients. For example: for processing
carrots and tomatoes, start with a portion of carrots, then proceed with tomatoes
and finish your work with carrots. This way, intermediately the fibres of the car-
rots are flushed from the mesh of the juicing sieve and the juicer will extract the
optimum amount of juices.
• For processing herbs, sprouts, or small leaves of greens, wrap these ingredients
in a large leaf of lettuce or spinach. If possible, fill these ingredients in the middle
of the feed chute between other large ingredients.
• Insert cigar-shaped fruit and vegetables (e.g. carrots, parsnips, radish, cucum-
bers, courgettes) with the tip down into the feed chute.
• To get the largest possible amount of juice and to avoid overloading the
motor, push the ingredients down in the feed chute evenly and slowly.
• Some types of fruit, spices, or vegetables (e.g. capsicum, carrots, citrus fruit) may
cause discolouration or leave opaque stains at the transparent plastic parts. This
will not influence the performance of the juicing system. Do not leave any food
dry on the surfaces to reduce discolouration and damage to the surfaces. Espe-
cially residues of food that could easily lead to discolouration and stains on the
transparent plastic parts should be removed immediately after processing.
• Avoid storing the juices or pulp within the juice jug or pulp container of the appli-
ance to avoid discolouration and damage to the surfaces.
The Best Blend
• It is quite easy to create a delightful juice drink. Combine your favourite ingre-
dients for getting the colour, flavour, and consistency according to your individual
liking.

• Strong aromas should be used very sparingly when combined with delicate fla-
vours. Ingredients with high content of starch and fibres go perfectly with very
juicy ingredients.
• Give it a try! Each type of fruit or vegetables you like, could be a part of your
next drink. For example, select one special type of fruit as the main component of
your drink and refine the taste with other flavours.
• With each batch of food you process, the amount of juices and the intensiveness
of flavours could differ a little. You could like this bit of daily variation.
Using the Pulp
• Starch and fibres are the major part of the pulp, but as well, it will contain a lot
of nutrients, essential for your daily diet. There are many ways of using the pulp.
However, to avoid high loss of vitamins and a lack in taste, as with the juices,
you should consume the pulp at the day of preparation.
• You can use the pulp for yogurt and fromage frais, for filling roulades, for thicke-
ning soups and sauces, and, covered with meringe and baked in the oven, for a
quickly prepared dessert. Perhaps, you will like it spiced to taste as a sandwich
spread.
• The pulp is too valuable for domestic waste. If you do not wish to consume it, you
may disposed of the pulp as compost.
