| For years, I felt my Juiceman and Champion gave adequate service. However, after adding a twin gear juicer to my kitchen ten years ago, the other juicers became obsolete for my use. |
- Juiceman II: Good centrifugal juicer: Easy to run tough vegetable through. Less effect yield from leafy greens and grasses.
|
- Champion Juicer: Masticating pulp ejector juicer. Extracts more nutrients than centrifugal units. Versatile: homogenizes for veggie loaves, nut butters, and frozen dairy-free banana based "ice cream". High RPM friction heats the juice and diminishes the nutrients.
|
- Twin gear juicers: Extracts twice as much juice and nutrients than the Juiceman II. Many feel the twin gear is superior in many ways to a Norwalk hydraulic press. Special magnetized stainless steel twin gears and low RPM's allow less oxidation and longer storage with minimum loss of vitamins.
|
| In my comparison test using the same size and volume of product the twin gear juicer produced at least twice the juice as the Juiceman. The cost of my weekly produce diminished by 50%. |
| There are many brands of twin gear juicers available. I purchased my twin gear juicer, Super Green Power, in 1996. The price was $1000 CND. At the time, I felt it was the top of the line. The later edition of this machine is now available for $379. US dollars, includes free shipping. |
SOME OF THE TWIN GEAR JUICER ATTRIBUTES ARE:
|
| 1. NUTRIENT PROTECTION AND VOLUME |
|
- Extracts more juice and nutrients.
|
|
|
- Low rotation RPM speed motor prevents oxidation and heat, thus the loss of enzymes and nutrients. This makes for a juice that tastes better, is more nutritious, and stores for longer periods.
|
- Leafy greens and grasses virtually juice themselves, carrot type vegetables require some force.
|
|
|
| 2. EASY TO CLEAN |
|
Juice Extractor is easy to clean |
| 3. MAGNETIC AND BIO-CERAMIC TECHNOLOGY |
|
Juice Extractor uses powerful magnets and bio-ceramic materials in its Twin Gears, produces fresh juice which can be stored for longer periods. |
| 4. SEPARATING PESTICIDES |
|
Juice Extractor filters out harmful pesticides extracting the natural juice in fruits and vegetables |
| 5. TWIN GEARS DO NOT TOUCH EACH OTHER |
|
The twin metal gears do not touch each other which prevents any possibility of metal scraps caused by friction to get into the juice or pulp. |
|
|
| 6. AUTOMATIC PULP EJECTION |
|
Two adjustable pulp inlet caps permit high levels of juice extraction from a wide variety of fruits and vegetables |
| 7. LOW NOISE, HIGH QUALITY JUICING |
|
The low speed rotation of the unique, powerful, twin gear impeller and pressing system generates virtually no heat that would cause denature to the juice. Fruits and vegetables are thoroughly masticated, rather than cutting and shredding them into small pieces. |
| 8. NUT BUTTER, BABY FOODS, AND SORBETS |
|
The homogenizing blank is used for making nut butters, baby foods, and fruit sorbet. |
| 9. HIGHER YIELD |
| I have personally compared the yield of a Champion, Juiceman and Twin Gear using similar size, type, and amount of produce. The yield between the Twin Gear, Champion, and Juiceman: Twin Gear - One Cup, Champion - 2/3 cup, Juiceman 1/2 cup. |
