Cold Press Juicer Masticating Slow Juicer
Product Overview
Cold press juice from a shop costs $10 to $15 per bottle. This juicer costs less than two weeks of daily shop purchases and lasts years. The slow masticating process — pressing produce at 80 RPM rather than shredding at 1000+ RPM — preserves enzymes and nutrients that centrifugal machines destroy through heat and oxidation. The juice also tastes noticeably different: deeper, cleaner flavour with no bitter metallic edge. The 72-hour freshness window means you can batch-produce three days of juice in a single session.
Pros 👍
- Slow Masticating Technology: 80 RPM extraction crushes and squeezes produce rather than shredding it — preserving enzymes and nutrients destroyed by heat in faster machines.
- 30% More Juice Yield: The thorough squeezing action extracts significantly more liquid from the same amount of produce compared to centrifugal juicers.
- Near-Silent Operation: 80 RPM motor operates at under 60dB — quiet enough to use in the morning without waking anyone in the house.
Cons 👎
- Juice stays fresh for up to 72 hours refrigerated — unlike centrifugal juice which oxidizes quickly
- Self-cleaning function — run water through after use and the auger cleans itself
- Works with leafy greens, wheatgrass, citrus, hard vegetables, and soft fruits
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can it juice leafy greens like spinach and kale?
A: Yes — the slow auger handles leafy greens and wheatgrass better than centrifugal machines, which struggle with leaves.
Q: How long does juicing typically take?
A: A litre of juice from mixed produce takes approximately 5 to 8 minutes — slower than centrifugal but the yield difference makes up for it.
Q: Is the pulp completely dry?
A: Mostly — the extraction is thorough enough that pulp comes out nearly dry, indicating maximum juice removal.
