Masticating Juicers – How To Find The Right One For You


Getting a masticating juicer is a great way to get healthy in just one step. With a masticating juicer, you get the most out of your fruits and vegetable. In addition to having delicious and healthy juice, you can use the pulp and add it to your favourite foods to make them healthier. A masticating juicer is a worthwhile investment that can help improve you and your family’s health.

But you shouldn’t just go out and buy the first masticating juicer that you see. Masticating juicers are expensive. And there are different types of masticating juicers out there. So before you buy your juicer, do some research. List down what you expect to get from your juicer and how much you’re willing to spend for it. From there, you can easily look for the exact juicer that’s right for you.

What To Look For In A Masticating Juicer

  • Price. How much are you willing to spend for a masticating juicer? From there, you’ll be able to narrow down the different models of masticating juicers within your price range. Do price comparisons on eBay, Craiglists, and different stores. Try to find as many different models with different features.
  • Usage. How often will you be using your masticating juicer? If you plan to use it often, it has to be easy to assemble and disassemble. It also has to be easy to clean and use. If you’re going to subject your juicer to a lot of abuse, you should go for the most durable model that you could find.
  • Single Gear or Dual Gear. Both single and dual gear masticating juicers can extract juice from wheatgrass, fruits and vegetables. Single gear masticating juicers are often less expensive dual gear juicers. Dual gear juicers may cost more but they are more durable and will last longer.
  • Special attachments. Most masticating juicers have special attachments that allow you to get more from your juicer. What type of attachments would you like? Would you like a juicer with a bread making attachment? An attachment for baby food?
  • Juice Storage. Do you plan to drink your juice right away? Or do plan to make batches of juice and storing it before drinking? If you plan to store your juice, you should get a masticating juicer that has a low oxidation number. Oxidation destroys some of the nutrients found in juice and the longer your juice is stored the more oxidation it goes through. Another way to reduce oxidation is by choosing a model with lower RPMs (revolutions per minute). A juicer with lower RPMs is quieter and produces less heat and less oxidation.
