LOOK GOOD FROM HEAD TO

MASTICATING, aka Slow Juicers, Cold Press, Single Gear, or Single Auger: Masticate means to chew. These juicers grind the produce (like chewing) to squeeze out the juice. These cost a bit more, so it’s a good choice if you’re into juicing. Pro: Slower, which is good in terms of keeping nutrients. The juice can also keep longer (up to 72 hours). These are better than centrifugal in getting juice from pulp.

Con: The slower speed means it takes longer, and you may need to feed the items one at a time, because these often have small mouths (this means more preparation).

Weight?

TRITURATING, aka Twin-Gear or Dual-Gear: With the most expensive price tag, this is the choice if juicing has become your way of life and you’re looking for a high-end product. Twin interlocking gears press together to separate the pulp and the juice.

Pro: Good for juicing for large groups of people, as it produces more juice. The slower speed prevents oxidation, so you can keep the juice longer in your fridge. Con: These take more time to juice than in masticating juicers, and is not known to juice citrus well. You need to cut the produce more finely, and with more parts to the machine, it takes longer to clean. TIP FROM A COMMITTED JUICER: McDonnell recently switched from a masticating to the Jason Vale Fusion Juicer. “It’s a combination of masticating and centrifugal,” she says. “It’s much faster, and I can put a whole carrot in there.”
