Juicing FAQ

Juicing offers a quick and easy way to incorporate more fruits and vegetables into your diet, providing your body with essential nutrients that support your overall health. In particular, cold press juicing preserves the natural vitamins, enzymes and antioxidants, giving you the maximum health benefits with every sip.

For the most nutritious and best tasting juices, use seasonal fruits and vegetables. It’s not only fresher and healthier, but it will give you more juice. Unlike old centrifugal machines, cold press juicers like the Optimum range don’t require forceful pressing or shoving, instead, let the fruits and vegetables fall naturally through the feeding chute of the juicers to prevent clogging and overflow. To optimize juicing efficiency, alternate between juicer fruits like apples, carrots, cucumber, and more fibrous vegetables like kale, spinach and celery, saving carrots for last to help push out any extra pulp.

While cold press juicers are primarily designed for extracting juices from fruits and vegetables, some models can make nuts milks if they have a blank strainer. If your juicer has a blank strainer, soak one cup of raw nuts overnight in water to soften and activate the enzymes. Rinse thoroughly the next day and add fresh water to the nuts in a bowl, adjust the amount of water for your desired milk consistency. Gradually spoon the nuts and water into the juicer while it’s running with the blank strainer, ensuring a steady pace to prevent clogging. Then drink and enjoy your delicious nut milk!

Cold press juicers, also known as masticating or slow juicers, use a gentle crushing and squeezing mechanism with a rotating auger and strainer to extract juice from fruits and vegetables. Unlike traditional centrifugal juicers, which use a high-speed spinning disc that generates heat during juicing, cold press juicers operate at lower speeds and preserve more nutrients.

Before buying a juicer, it’s best to look at all the specs. Consider if the juicer is a centrifugal or cold press, what motor power it has, the feeding chute and hopper size, noise level and ease of cleaning. It’s also worth looking at the juicer design to make sure it fits in with your kitchen.
