The Matstone 6 in 1 Juicer
Types of juicer
Why juice? A logical starting point, juicing is the easiest way to get guaranteed fresh, raw nutrients into your system in a compact and easy to digest way. At juiceproducer we recognise the problem of a nutrient depleted world, pollution, intensive farming and similar takes it's toll, but let's not weigh ourselves down with that, lets do what we can to sort it.
Juicing and smoothy making is simply a fun way to give your body what it needs to function, repair itself and generally be at its full glory as simply as possible. Take the Juiceproducer challenge, dust off the juicer or buy one from us* get up ten minutes early for a week and juice one apple, 3 carrots, a little ginger, some beetroot for the battered old liver and maybe for the blender equipped amongst us whip a banana, mango and strawberries into the mix then try to tell us you don't feel and look better by Friday!
Here's a quick run down of the types of machine available:

Most people start juicing with a centrifugal juicer as this is what you find in most department stores. They are quick and simple machines to use, BUT they do degrade juice quality due to their high speed cutting nature.
In summary a good starting point in your juicing career but you'll probably get bored with cleaning the thing and you'll get better health benefits from an auger or twin gear juicer!

The single auger juicer, like the Matstone juicer here, now we are a-juicin' easier to clean, better yield and a more gentle juicing process gives you a "live" or more nutrient rich juice, also most juicers in this category will do wheatgrass.
These machines are sometimes known as "masticating" juicers as the auger crushes the voluntary fruit and veg at slow revs, typically around 100 rpm. The result is a nice, quiet, easy to clean juicer giving a living nutrient rich juice that hits the spot!

DO check the specs on our site or call the Juiceproducer team on if you want to juice wheatgrass as not all the single auger juicers handle wheatgrass.
More!?! OK then, the big daddies in juicer world are the twin gears, these machines offer a lot, they really will juice anything, work a little quicker than a single auger juicer AND offer the best yield and nutrient quality. Serious juicers for serious juicefans, get one of these and you are at the juicer pinnacle. Well worth the extra money and a great investment in personal health.
Twin gear juicers have two counter rotating gears the run together very precisely, you have to push a little but you get the best yield and these machines do the best job on wheatgrass.
It is worth bearing in mind that twin gear juicers are a little more involved to clean than single auger juicers

Right that's the juicy word on the types of machine available, but can we do more to improve our natural diet? OH yes! We also stock ultrasonic washers . These machines use sound waves to wash your fruit and veg getting the layers of pesticides and other agricultural nasties off your greens, whats more the beauty is beyond skin deep, the cleansing goes beyond the surface and helps to shift absorbed chemicals. |
Ok one and all, that's the info, make of it what you will or for more advice email us or give us a call!!
