Slow juicing & juicing
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions and myths about slow juicing. We clarify and reveal the truth.
What is “Slow Juicing” / “Slow Juice”?
Slow juice (literally translated: "slow juice" ), or so-called "slow juicing," was invented in Thailand and refers to a particularly gentle form of juicing, i.e., the extraction of juice from fruit or vegetables. With this method, the juice is pressed very slowly and carefully and, because no heat is generated in the juice, is also referred to as "cold-pressed."
Why is slow juice so healthy?
Slow juicing involves neither heat nor oxygen being introduced into the juice. This is what makes it so special. This pressing process preserves all the important nutrients, such as enzymes, vitamins, trace elements, and minerals, in the juice. All you need is a slow juicer, a special electric juicer that presses very slowly and gently, preserving the nutrient content of the juiced product to the maximum .

Slow Juicer vs. Centrifugal Juicer - What's the Difference?
With a slow juicer, the speed and rotation of the auger are crucial. Scientists have observed the chewing motion of the human body and determined that a chewing speed of between 30 and 40 movements per minute is optimal for optimal utilization of nutrients.
Only through this intense chewing motion can food be properly broken down and salivated. This is precisely the principle used by slow juicers.
Fruit, vegetables, but also grasses, herbs and salads are chopped slowly, gently and relatively quietly at 40 to 60 revolutions per minute and pressed out through a pressing roller or auger.
The cell membranes of the pressed material are gently broken open, releasing the valuable plant compounds and the valuable chlorophyll from green leafy vegetables and grasses . The result is a homogeneous, tastier juice. The pressed material has minimal contact with oxygen, which means the juice doesn't immediately turn brown and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days.
The only advantage of a centrifugal juicer is the time savings. However, the rapid juicing process is a nutrient killer. The juicer's centrifuge cuts up the pulp and expels the liquid, including vitamins, enzymes, and minerals, from the cell walls. Unfortunately, the juice is not only broken down into its components of water and pulp, but the high rotation speeds (up to 15,000 rpm) and the swirling oxygen also cause it to oxidize very quickly , thereby losing the important vitamins.
Therefore, the juice should be consumed immediately. Longer storage in the refrigerator is not advisable, as the flavor deteriorates quickly and the juice begins to taste sour after about 12 hours.
A slow juicer is therefore clearly the better choice if juice quality is your priority.

Horizontal vs. Vertical Slow Juicer - What's the Difference?
Horizontal slow juicers are characterized by a horizontal design and a press screw that is elongated and horizontally mounted
Vertical slow juicers, on the other hand, have a vertical design and the pressing auger is more round and is mounted vertically in the device.
Features of a vertical juicer:
• Larger press screw and therefore slightly faster preparation
• Larger filling opening, making filling easier
• Space-saving in the kitchen
• Slightly easier to clean
• Suitable for all types of pressed material
• Sometimes reaches its limits when dealing with fibrous material
• Various variations through the different sieves, such as smoothies, juices, ice cream/sorbets, tofu, soy milk
Features of a horizontal juicer:
• Press screw slightly smaller, preparation takes slightly longer
• Filling opening slightly narrower
• Requires a little more space in the kitchen (wider)
• Cleaning is slightly more complex (depending on the model)
• Suitable for all types of pressed material
• Ideal for fibrous leafy greens such as celery, wheatgrass
These points clearly demonstrate that there isn't one perfect juicer for every situation. Above all, you should consider whether you're primarily interested in making green juices with long-fiber pulp or whether you prefer blended fruit and vegetable juices.
However, the question remains as to what else should be prepared with the juicer, such as ice cream, sorbet, frozen yogurt or almond milk, or whether it is primarily intended for juices alone.

▷ Info: Vertical vs. Horizontal Slow Juicer - What's the Difference?
Buying a slow juicer - what should you look out for?
If you want to make fresh, self-pressed juices and get the maximum amount of vitamins and juice yield, you should use a slow juicer, a specific type of electric juicer, to juice fruit and vegetables at a cool temperature according to the slow juicing principle.
You should always pay attention to the following 10 points:
1. Low revolutions per minute
Older slow juicers extracted juice at up to 70 revolutions per minute. Newer machines now do this at only 45-60 rpm . The lower the speed, the better.
2. BPA-free
It's important that all plastic parts that come into contact with the juice are BPA-free (i.e., do not contain bisphenol A ) and that all parts have been tested for food safety. Tritan or ULTEM, which are BPA-free, are commonly used.
3. Low wattage
More watts, more power is better? Not with a slow juicer. With a slow juicer , 150–350 watts is the maximum wattage you should look for. This is less about energy efficiency than about juicing really slowly.
4. Press screw (vertical vs horizontal)
Horizontal juicers are best suited for juicing herbs, wild plants, grasses, lettuce, cabbage and other leafy greens.
The reason is that the finer pressing shafts are better able to handle the fibers in the greens. Vertical juicers are superior when it comes to quickly producing pure fruit and vegetable juices, or blended juices—especially from softer pulp. They produce a ready-blended juice from, for example, apple, carrot, or orange in a simple and quick way.
5. Are individual parts available?
All individual parts should be available for purchase separately, which is often difficult with many other manufacturers. With Nutrilovers slow juicers, you don't have to worry. All parts, including wear parts, are in stock for replacement – and if they're not, we'll source them for you! We also provide replacement parts at cost price and don't charge exorbitant fees.
7. Cleaning & Handling
The device should be easy to disassemble and reassemble. Operation and handling should be simple. Typically, the devices only work if everything is properly assembled, which provides additional safety. The individual parts should be easy to clean, and the device should include cleaning brushes for hard-to-reach corners.
8. German customer support
When purchasing a slow juicer, we strongly recommend making sure you have first-class German-speaking customer support. Since slow juicers contain more parts than smoothie blenders/mini blenders and assembly is somewhat more complex, it's very important to be able to get help quickly. A seemingly good deal from a Chinese supplier can quickly become a flop.
9. Return function
The forward and reverse function is a very practical feature that you absolutely shouldn't do without. The reverse function helps when pressing if pieces are blocking the press mechanism. These can then be easily released. This function is also very helpful for cleaning.
10. Accessories
Practical accessories such as a juice container with a drip stop for a constantly clean work surface, an insert for frozen ingredients, a pestle, a pulp container with a large capacity, a cleaning brush , the sieve made of stainless steel and various recipe suggestions are a big plus.
