Is a juice machine worth it?
If you buy a lot of fresh juice, or you’re trying to add more veggies into your diet, a juice machine is totally worth it. In New York City, for example, the average cold-pressed juice costs $9.75. If you were to buy one juice a day? That’s a tab of $3,459 a year. On juice. With a juice machine, you can stock up on fruits and add in your daily serving of veggies for a fraction of the cost. Now all you have to do is find the right juice machine for you.
What's the difference between cold-pressed juicers and standard juicers?
There’s a big one. A standard juicer — or centrifugal juicer — blends your ingredients by using high-speed spinning blades and a strainer to separate the juice from the pulp. This method creates a lot of heat, which causes your ingredients to oxidize and lose a lot of the nutrients, enzymes, and minerals that are naturally in ’em. Centrifugal juicers are usually cheaper, faster, and smaller than cold-press juicers.
Cold-press juicers use completely different technology. Instead of a spinning blade, these juicers crush and grind fruits and vegetables with an auger in order to extract their juice. Because of the lack of heat, ingredients retain more of their nutrients. The catch: Cold-press juicers take longer and are usually bulkier thanks to their augers.
