Mechanical juicer

Freshly squeezed juice is an incomparable drink. To enjoy it daily, it is enough to buy a juicer , for example, a mechanical juicer .

Advantages of a mechanical juicer

The indisputable advantage of such devices is the palatability of the resulting juice, in which all vitamins of the fruit are preserved. In the process of pressing the drink does not heat up and does not oxidize, which means that all the vitamins remain in place. Such models are also:

• autonomous - do not depend on electricity, which, by the way, is very convenient in the country;
• mobile;
• noiseless;
• durable;
• cheap.

Of course, there is a minus - in order to get juice, you will have to make efforts.

Types of mechanical juicers

There are several types of hand-held devices for squeezing juice. The mechanical juicer-press is most often used for squeezing juice from fruits or vegetables. It is obtained by placing the selected fruit between two strong plates of the clamping device, which is actuated by the handle. Usually it is a screw press. Under the force action, the fruit is flattened, and juice flows out of it. Juice, passing through a fine mesh in the pallet, is obtained very clean, without the products of pressing. This juicer is considered the most effective, because the yield of juice in it can reach 85-90%. True, the process of pressing requires great effort, which, for example, is not always convenient for women.

There is a variety for citrus: the press part looks like a cone, to which a half of an orange is pressed. Under the influence of rotation, the cone squeezes out the juice from the citrus.

Another type - a mechanical screw-type juicer - on the outside kind of resembles a meat grinder, and the principle of work is the same. The cut fruit is first fed into the funnel, and then in the body it is grinded by a twisting shaft (screw). Pure juice in a mechanical juicer grinder flows through a metal mesh, and the cake from the fruit comes from a separate hole. This device is perfectly suited for squeezing not only fruit, berries (for example, grapes), but also vegetables, the juice of their stems (for example, celery), greens. The maximum yield of juice in the auger is about 82%. In the specialized shops there is a mechanical juicer for tomatoes. In fact, this is a normal device for squeezing juice with auger. Such models are equipped with a mechanism that allows you to regulate the amount of juice yield, as well as a protective casing that does not allow the liquid to splash.
