OPERATING THE JUICER

Making juice


Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.



Rotating Blade Hazard
Always use food pusher.
Keep fingers out of openings. Keep away from children.
Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.

  1. Plug the mixer into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Turn on the Stand Mixer to speed 10.

    Large seeds or pits need to be removed prior to juicing to avoid damage to the auger or baskets. This includes fruits such as: nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums, cherries, etc.
  2. Place items to be juiced into the hopper. Use the food pusher to slowly feed items into the Juicer bowl.
    Making juice - Step 2
  1. To make juice, the pulp chute should always be pushed in; this is the open position. When the pulp chute is open, pulp created while juicing will flow through the pulp chute, separating it from the juice.
    Making juice - Step 3
  2. To make sauces, pull the pulp chute out; this is the closed position. Make sure the rubber gasket is in place. When the pulp chute is closed, the juice and fiber exit through the juice chute as a sauce.
    Making juice - Step 4

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Quick tips

  • The pulp chute controls how much fibrous material or pulp exits through the juice chute.
    • Pulling the pulp chute out closes the chute, increasing the amount of pulp and fiber for your sauce recipes.
    • Pushing the pulp chute in opens the chute, reducing the amount of pulp for your juice recipes.
  • Remember to open the pulp chute when using the high or low pulp screens. Keeping the pulp chute open will prevent the Juicer from locking up.
  • The rubber gasket on the bottom of the juicer needs to be in place to reduce loss of juice into the pulp chute. Only remove the rubber gasket if you want juice to flow into the pulp ejector.
  • The drip stop should be opened before juicing.
  • Large seeds or pits need to be removed prior to juicing to avoid damage to the auger or baskets. This includes fruits such as: nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums, cherries, etc.
  • Before saucing hard fruits (such as apples), it is recommended that you steam the fruit for 2-3 minutes.
  • Run Juicer Attachment for 1-2 minutes after the last piece of food is inserted. This ensures the maximum amount of juice is extracted.

Classic Tomato Sauce
Yield: 3 ½ to 4 cups
A classic tomato sauce is a staple in every cook's kitchen. The Juicer makes quick work of the otherwise tedious task of seeding and straining the tomatoes, producing a smooth sauce perfect for pasta, pizza, or lasagna. Use the best tomatoes you can find, San Marzano or ripe Roma tomatoes are best. If it is not prime tomato season, canned tomatoes are a better choice.
Total Time: 2 hours
3 ½ pounds fresh Roma tomatoes, halved or 2 (28 ounce) cans whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes
1 medium carrot
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
½ medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Using the saucing screen with pulp control closed, juice tomatoes (along with their juices if using canned tomatoes) and carrot. You should end up with about 6 cups of juice.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat olive oil and butter until melted and frothy. Add onion and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add tomato juice and oregano and bring to a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, for 60 to 90 minutes or until sauce has thickened to desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Sauce will keep, refrigerated in airtight container, for up 5 days, or frozen for up to 3 months.

Pear Caramel Sauce
Yield: 3/4 cup
Taking homemade caramel sauce to another level of flavor with fresh fruit, this pear caramel sauce features fresh pear juice and pear liqueur. It is wonderful poured over homemade vanilla or cinnamon spice ice cream, and simply sinful drizzled on top of a slice of chocolate cake.
Total Time: 40 minutes
2-3 Comice or Anjou pears, quartered
½ cup granulated sugar
pinch cream of tartar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon butter
1 ∕ 8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon pear liqueur
Juice pears through the low pulp screen. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any large chunks or skins. You should have about 1 cup of juice.
In a small saucepan, cook juice, stirring occasionally, over medium-high heat until thick and butterscotch in color and reduced to ¼ cup, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
In a small, high-sided saucepan, combine sugar, 2 tablespoons water, and cream of tartar, stirring until sugar has dissolved. When the mixture starts to boil, stop stirring and cover the pan for 2 minutes (the steam buildup will dissolve any stray sugar crystals on the side of the pan). Remove cover and cook, without stirring, for about 8 to 10 minutes or until sugar caramelizes to the color of light beer, swirling the pan as needed to ensure an even color throughout.
Remove from heat and whisk in reduced pear juice, cream, butter, and salt until smooth (mixture will bubble vigorously, so pour carefully to prevent spattering). Stir in pear liqueur and let cool. Caramel sauce will keep, refrigerated in a glass jar or airtight container, for up to 2 weeks. Re-warm prior to serving.

Spiced Apple Pear Sauce
Makes 4 cups
A twist on a classic, this apple pear sauce is tasty stirred into hot oatmeal or served as a quick weeknight dessert. To ensure a nice texture, make sure to peel the apples before saucing.
2 pounds apples, peeled, cored and quartered
1 pound pears, cored and quartered
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon grated nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
Fit your KitchenAid ® Juicer Stand Mixer attachment with the saucing screen and run the apples and pears through the attachment. Pour the apple pear pulp into a saucepan and add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Simmer until the sauce thickens.
To store, cool to room temperature and spoon into a container with a tight-fitting lid. It will keep for 2-3 weeks in the fridge.

Jams and jellies
Pineapple Orange Jelly
Makes 3 half pints This jelly is a hit with lovers of tropical fruit. If you're finding that you're not getting enough juice from the your pineapple, try running the pulp through the machine a second time.
1 large pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into eighths
2 navel oranges, peeled
2 cups granulated sugar
3 tablespoons powdered pectin
Run the pineapple and oranges through the high pulp screen. Measure out four cups of pineappleorange juice and pour it into low, wide pan that holds at least 5 quarts.
Whisk the sugar and powdered pectin together and add to the pineapple-orange juice. Place the pan over high heat and bring to a rolling boil.
Cook the jam at a boil, stirring regularly, for 15 to 20 minutes, until it thickens. When the jam has reached the set point, it will form a thick layer on the sides of the pan. Another way to judge set it by using a candy or instant read thermometer. When the cooking jelly reaches 221°F (105°C), it is done.
Once the jam is finished, funnel it into clean, hot mason jars. Wipe the jar rims and apply new lids and rings. Lower the jars into a stockpot of hot water just off the boil, making sure that the jars fully covered with water. Once the water returns to a boil, set a timer for 10 minutes.
When the time is up, remove the jars from the stockpot and place on a folded kitchen towel to cool. Sealed jars are shelf stable for up to a year.

Strawberry Vanilla Jam
Makes 4 cups
This is a smooth jam that is always a hit with kids. Using a vanilla bean instead of an extract will give the jam better flavor.
3 pounds strawberries, washed and hulled
2 cups granulated sugar
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
2 tablespoons powdered pectin
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Run the strawberries through the high pulp screen. Measure out four cups of strawberry pulp and pour it into low, wide pan that holds at least 5 quarts.
Whisk the sugar, vanilla bean seeds, and powdered pectin together and add to the strawberry pulp. Place the pan over high heat and bring to a rolling boil.
Cook the jam at a boil, stirring regularly, for 15 to 20 minutes, until it thickens. Add the lemon juice in the last five minutes of cooking. When the jam has reached the set point, it will form a thick layer on the sides of the pan.
Once the jam is finished, funnel it into clean, hot mason jars. Wipe the jar rims and apply new lids and rings. Lower the jars into a stockpot of hot water just off the boil, making sure that the jars fully covered with water. Once the water returns to a boil, set a timer for 10 minutes.
When the time is up, remove the jars from the stockpot and place on a folded kitchen towel to cool. Sealed jars are shelf stable for up to a year.

Vegetable Pulp and Quinoa Cakes
Yield: 16 cakes (5-6 servings)
Put that leftover vegetable pulp to good use with these savory quinoa cakes, packed with flavor and protein. These cakes are great on their own, served with tartar sauce or aioli, or as a veggie burger patty between slider-sized buns. A pulp mix of starchy root vegetables such as carrots, beets, or sweet potatoes, with some added fruit (such as apples) is the best foundation for this recipe. When saving leftover pulp for later use, remove any inedible skins, cores, or seeds from the fruit or vegetables prior to juicing.
Total Time: 45 minutes
4 large eggs
1 cup quinoa, rinsed and cooked according to package directions (about 3 cups cooked)
2 cups vegetable pulp
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 large onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 ∕ 3 cup packed fresh parsley leaves, chopped
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces (½ cup) goat cheese, crumbled
1 ∕ 3 cup olive oil, divided
Preheat oven to 250ºF (121°C). Whisk eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add quinoa, vegetable pulp, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper and mix until incorporated. Fold in crumbled goat cheese. Form into ½-inch thick patties using ¼ cup of quinoa mixture per cake. To ensure even sizing, tightly pack into a lightly oiled measuring cup. Arrange on a lightly oiled plate and repeat with remaining quinoa mixture. Refrigerate cakes for 15 minutes before cooking. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When oil begins to shimmer, gently lay cakes into the skillet, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining cakes, adding more oil to the pan as needed. Serve warm.
