Extracting juice
This appliance is ideal for extracting
juic
e from soft, firm and hard fruit.
It is best to use overripe fruit as the rip‐
er the fruit, the gr
eater the quantity of
juice produced. Very ripe fruit will also
produce a more intense flavour.
Preparation
Sort and rinse the fruit, and cut out any
blemishes.
Remove the stalks from grapes and
mor
ello cherries as these are bitter. The
stalks do not need to be removed from
strawberries, raspberries etc.
Cut larger fruit into chunks approx.
2 cm in siz
e. The harder the fruit, the
smaller the pieces should be.
Useful tips
– Try experimenting with mild and tart
flavo
urs. For example, mix apples
with elderberries.
– Adding sugar will increase the quanti‐
ty of juice
produced and improve the
flavour. Sprinkle the fruit with sugar
and leave to absorb for a few hours
before juicing. For 1 kg of sweet fruit
add 50–100 g of sugar, and for 1 kg
of tart fruit add 100–150 g of sugar.
– If you wish to bottle the juice rather
than co
nsume it straight away, pour it
whilst hot into hot, sterilised bottles
up to the rim, and then seal immedi‐
ately with sterilised rubber tops.
Procedure
P
ut the prepared fruit (cleaned, wash‐
ed, chopped etc.) into a perforated
cooking container.
Place a solid container or the con‐
densat
e tray underneath to catch the
juice.
