A juicer at home enables you to have juice at your own time and of desired proportion. It is also contamination free and just the way you want it to be. You can think of a good start with a morning shake almost as quick as the concoction of a soda.

The motors are chosen and fit in such a way that it can extract gallons of juice per day. Mouth of the juicer is kept wide open to accommodate large pieces; perhaps this will not be good for a home purpose. Citrus fruit juicers are exclusively to extract vitamins and minerals from citrus fruits, which is quite difficult to be squeezed because of its shape, size and inconvenience it causes while holding it. Therefore, citrus fruit extracts are difficult without a juicer. Popular brands and good juicers always supply additional accessories to facilitate this juicing.

High potential motors are chosen to grind nuts and even harder substances.

An irritating part about juicers is that, at the end of juicing, juicer has to be cleaned. Left over pulp can be seen in all parts of the juicer. When the pulp is found stuck in crevices such as the area between blade and the bottom and parts beneath the blade makes the cleaning even tougher. For an easy cleaning, pour some water in the juicer to allow all parts of the juicer soak in water for a while. This will make the sticky pulp amalgamate with water and float in it. Rinse the juicer followed by it and then continues with the normal washing procedure. However, blade has to be given real attention. Remove the blade and clean it using a brush rather than a scrubber to avoid cuts and bruises on your hand.
