It is unlikely that any other household kitchen appliance can boast such a solid pedigree as juicers. Primitive devices for squeezing juice have appeared with the development of winemaking - it is difficult to say exactly when exactly. However, already in ancient Greece, winemaking presses have become widespread. Until the early twentieth century juicer-press remained solely an agricultural tool. It was used for the processing of ripe fruits, from which later wine, cider and other beverages were prepared. And to this day, juicers are actively used by our fellow citizens during seasonal harvesting. For "wholesale processing" of large volumes of fruits, powerful and high-performance models are needed. Another type of device is designed for daily cooking of small portions of freshly squeezed juice - as a rule, it is a compact technique occupying the minimum space in the kitchen. Among the brands of household juicers on the Russian market there are such as Ariete, De'Longhi (Italy), Binatone, Kenwood (Great Britain), Bork, Bosch, Braun, Clatronic (Germany), Moulinex, Tefal (France), Panasonic (Japan) , Philips (Netherlands), UNIT, Vitek (Austria). Among the brands of universal technology, which is used not only in everyday life, but also professionals, you can call DIHR, Vema (Italy), Omega (USA), Rotel (Switzerland).

Your press for each fruit

Depending on the principle of work and the type of fruit,for which the household juicers are designed, these devices can be divided into several classes. The most widespread are the so-called centrifugal models. In them, the pulp of the fruit is preliminarily ground to a mushy state, and then squeezed out in a centrifuge - about the same as washing in a washing machine. These devices are good at squeezing juice from a variety of fruits. Exceptions are relatively few. So, the "hard nut" for centrifugal juicers can become the pulp of bananas or other fruits with a high content of starch. For their processing, some manufacturers recommend using a combine or blender. "Problem" is also considered berries with a lot of small seeds (raspberries, currants), clogging the holes of the centrifuge. For these products, a press press is more suitable. Household devices of this kind with an electric drive on sale could not be found. Therefore, amateurs of currant juice can recommend kitchen combines in which a press for berries is provided, for example, models Bosch MCM 5180, Moulinex DFC 64 E. Sometimes the press for berries is not included in the basic equipment of kitchen appliances, but it can be purchased separately. Such attachments are additionally offered, say, to the mixers of the Artisan series from KitchenAid (USA). Their juicer-presses exist for the production of citrus juice (so-called citrus-presses). The working element in them is a rotating ribbed nozzle hemispherical or conical. To prepare the juice for this nozzle, you need to press half of the orange, lemon or other fruit and turn on the appliance. If you place a polyethylene bag in the pulp container, the container does not have to be washed again. How much does the juicer cost? Centrifugal models of "no frills" can be purchased for a sum of 700-800 to 1500-2000 rubles. Prestigious technology with a powerful engine, metal body and interesting design is more expensive - from two to three to 10-15 thousand rubles. The same is true for citrus-presses. Basically, they are in the price range from 400-500 to 1000-1200 rubles. And only a few exclusive models are offered for 1500-2500 rubles. (apart from the model Bork JU CUP 9911 BK, which costs 9800 rubles.)Picture 1. Juicers for citrus are specifically designed to produce juice from oranges, lemons, grapefruits. Photo 2. Fresh juices with pulp and without added sugar are especially useful. Photo 3.4. By design, the centrifuge nozzles can have a conical (3) and cylindrical (4) shape
