Which Juicer? How about the Breville 800JEXL?
If you are looking for a juicer, you want a machine that is as powerful as you can afford. That is because it is the power in the motor that will ensure maximum juice is extracted from your produce and nothing is wasted. With the Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite, you get a 1000 watt motor which works at two speeds. There is a fast speed where the machine spins at 13,000 RPM and is best for extracting the juice from hard vegetables and fruits and a slower 6,500 RPM speed which is great for softer foods such as berries. The faster speed is three times as fast as some juicers and you will see a huge difference in the amount of juice extracted.
The Breville has a wide chute to accommodate big chunks of fruit and vegetables and even whole fruits, although processing will be faster if you chop your apples and oranges etc. in half. However, it does mean that you can add more to the machine at any one time. The juice collects in a pitcher with a one liter capacity so that means you do not have to keep emptying your machine during operation.
Some kitchen appliances are made to be hidden away in a cupboard. Not so with this Breville juicer! Encased in stainless steel, it is smart enough to be left out on any kitchen counter and as you know if you leave an appliance out, it gets much more use than if you put it away and have to haul it out again each time you want to use it.
You also don’t have to worry too much about cleaning your juicer as the parts you need to wash thoroughly can go in the dishwasher and the outer casing just needs to be wiped with a damp cloth to keep it looking as good as new.
