Wheatgrass juicer is the spin-off product of the single gear masticating juicer. This type of juicer is the specialist of leaf juicing. If you are more of a vegetarian than a fruitarian, I strongly recommend you this product.

Its specialized razor will munch any fiber and leaves of vegetables and wheatgrass into a nutritious cup of vegetable juice. Besides, this juicer is quite a versatile kitchen helper as it can be used to prepare ingredients from celery juice to herb extracts. Some models of wheatgrass juicer can also juice fruits as well. Commonly wheat grass juicers are electrical, however, there are some manual juicers available.

Thinking of getting an all rounder? A twin gear triturating juicer would be your best choice. This monster works with almost any fruits and vegetables, albeit comes at the highest price relative to other types.

It grinds, crushes and pounds everything you feed it into fine particles and extract all the juice from the pulp. It works using twin gear interlocking each other and rotating inwardly, virtually crushing anything inserted into dry pulp. It can even be used for leafy items and as a kitchen food mill.

The Single Gear Masticating Juicer is a newer approach in the juicer market. It operates by using a single gear or auger that literally chews up the fruit into pulp. Unlike the centrifugal juicer, a masticating juicer operates at a much lower speed at about 80 ~ 120 RPM, producing minimal heat and the least air oxidation possible as not to disrupt the cellular structure of the fruits and vegetables.

This eliminates oxidation to the juices, therefore, preserving most the precious enzymes and nutrients. Some models can even be used for vegetable juicing, thus making it a good kitchen companion. However, this type of juicer usually comes at a higher price.

As one of the most affordable type of juicer, centrifugal juicers can be seen almost anywhere. The way this kind of juicer produces juice is by simultaneously chopping up fruits or vegetables and spinning the produce at a very high speed. In effect, the juice is extracted from the pulp through centrifugal force.

Imagine a washing machine wringing wet clothes to relieve the clothes of excess water, and there you go! The pulp will remain in the strainer basket while the juice passes through the tiny holes in the basket. If you like to juice fruits and vegetables without exerting much strength, this is definitely a preferred choice.

Citrus juicer is one of the most fundamental juicers. Why do you need one of it? You can always simply squeeze out the juice with your hands. However! Considering the heat of from your hands and the time taken, your brute force might have the enzymes and vitamins destroyed. So, just grab one of these juicers, and squeeze out the juice from your oranges and grapefruits around the cone in no time. Bon appétit! You have one of the most nutritious drinks in the world.
