PP3403A PowerPac Juice
INTRODUCTION
The PowerPac Juice PP3403A is a fast juicer (or centrifugal juicer) that utilizes a fast-rotating centrifugal mesh fitted with metal blades that break down fruits, vegetables and some greens into the juice. The pulp is sorted and placed into a separate receptacle. It is easier to clean, juices a lot faster, is capable of producing a large quantity of juice, and the appliance itself is much cheaper compared with a Slow Juicer. The PowerPac Juice PP3403A 405 extracts juice quickly and efficiently. With a dedicated design fitted with a large Loading Tube, use of high-quality materials such as food-grade Stainless Steel Filter mesh and blade and outstanding functions like a 2-speed gear and a skid-resistant base that holds steady during operations, you will be making delicious and nutritious fruit juices for yourself and your loved ones for years to come.
Notes:
- DO NOT extract soft fruits (banana, peach), fruits with hard nuts, ice.
- DO NOT juice vegetables such as carrot, beetroot and broccoli with other vegetables as they contain a lot of starch. Remove seeds from citrus fruits before juicing as they will make juice taste bitter.
- Thick-skinned fruits such (orange, grapefruit, pineapple) should be peeled before juicing; thin-skinned fruits and vegetable DO NOT need to be peeled.
- Suitable fruits and vegetables include: apple, carrots, celery, cucumber, ginger, grapefruit, orange, pineapple, spinach, squash, sugar beet, tomato, and watermelon.
- A little lemon will help reduce the bitter taste of vegetables, while a little honey will sweeten the taste. You can add cinnamon or mint to spice up the taste of the juice.
- It is advisable to drink fruit juice immediately (or store it in the refrigerator) after extraction, as oxygen in air oxidises the juice quickly and nutrients present in the juice will be lost.
- The pulp can be saved and used as a plant fertiliser.
