How to use a juicer

A juicer is a modern household appliance that most housewives have at their disposal. But in order to get a tasty and healthy juice, you need to know a few basic rules for using this device. And it was to this issue that we decided to pay detailed attention in the material presented below.

Rules for using a juicer

The citrus juicer works by centrifugal force. The design includes a special thicket having many holes for draining juice. In view of the foregoing, this capacity must be securely fixed. Also, one should not forget about installing a special filter, through which the cake will be removed. You will also need to follow a number of other rules.

1. Before preparing the juice, you must thoroughly wash the fruits in cold water. No need to think that dirt will be discharged along with the cake. On the contrary, it mixes with juice and enters your body, which can lead to unpredictable consequences. In addition, it is necessary to cut the rot from the fruit, if any.
2. After each use of the device, it must be thoroughly washed. In other cases, the cake residues will begin to harden and solidify, and it will be very difficult to wash them in such cases.
3. Before using the juicer, you must carefully read the instructions, because devices from different manufacturers have a number of distinctive features. And the instructions clearly indicate which raw materials the model can process, and which - alas, it will not cope.

What can not be done?

In the process of using a juicer, you can’t do some things that can reduce the service life of a machine:

• the fruits must not be washed in hot water, nor should fruit be placed in the device doused with boiling water. In such situations, the output is not tasty juice, but fruit pulp;
• it is not recommended to put fruits with seeds in the juicer, since the latter are poorly ground, and can lead to centrifuge breakdowns. Also, you can not process fruits with a fibrous structure that will stop the rotation of the disk. In the end, you just have to disassemble the device and get the skin. And in some cases, expensive repairs may be needed;
• Do not use products that are not intended for your model. For example, citrus juicers are unlikely to handle carrots or apples.

User's manual

There are several main conditions for proper operation.

1. Before using the device, you must make sure that it is correctly assembled, and only connect it to the network.
2. You must also check the cord for bare spots. If any are found, connecting the juicer is strictly prohibited.
3. Do not wash the engine in water. It must be carefully wiped with a damp cloth when turned off, and the motor must be thoroughly dried before use.
4. The conditions of the instructions for continuous use must be observed. Budget models can work for a couple of minutes, while the time of continuous operation of expensive devices can be 10-15 minutes.
5. Fruits must be divided into small parts, which will help reduce the load on the motor.
6. It is strictly forbidden to push vegetables and fruits with your fingers. For these purposes, it is necessary to use a special pusher that comes with the kit.
7. After the juicer is finished, it must be washed thoroughly.

Proper care

Plastic components can be easily washed in warm water using ordinary dishwashing detergents. There is no need to be afraid of easy coloring of the plastic due to the fact that in the active state it is in contact with natural dyes. But if you still decide not to allow such an effect, after each use you can lubricate all the elements with sunflower oil, and after that go into their washing and cleaning.
