Manual juicers are affordable and require no power source. They come in various designs, including glass models for lemons and oranges, metal models for larger fruits and vegetables, and specialized models for greens. They are portable and easy to clean.
Manual juicers are devices used to extract liquids from fruits and vegetables. The design for most juicers of this type involves a body that includes a lever, crank, or press to apply pressure to the fruit or vegetable and force the juice into a holding compartment. One advantage of the manual juicer is that most models are relatively inexpensive and require no power source other than a little effort on the part of the operator.
The manual juicer has been a staple in kitchens for several years. Simple glass models have been used for decades to extract juice from fruits such as lemons or oranges. These examples of manual juicers are essentially a low-lipped container constructed with a rounded, raised area in the middle. The fruit pieces are halved, then pressed and turned over this central area to force the juice out of the fruit pulp. As the juice is released by the combination of pressure and rotation of the fruit body, it flows into the area with the lips. A spout allows you to pour the juice into a colander to remove any pulp residue or transfer the fruit juice directly into a serving glass.
Other examples of manual juicers are built to work well with a wider variety of fruits and many vegetables. These devices normally have a body constructed of metal of some sort, often stainless steel. The larger pieces of fruit are placed in a chamber and compressed with the use of a lever which exerts pressure on the top of the fruit. As the body of the fruit or vegetable collapses under the pressure, the extracted juice flows into a containment chamber. The pulp can then be set aside for use in various cooking recipes while the juice is prepared for consumption. Thanks to the metal construction, these larger examples of manual juicers can be easily cleaned by washing down with soap and water in the sink. Many of the juicers can also be safely cleaned in an automatic dishwasher.
There are a few examples of the more specialized manual juicers. Some are built to work primarily with fruit, while others may focus on using a range of greens, including asparagus, wheatgrass, and turnip roots. These specialized manual juicers tend to be more expensive than the simpler, more general-purpose manual versions, but are often very affordable.
Since a manual juicer does not require electricity to operate, the device can easily be taken along on camping trips or to lakeside cabins with no electricity. The simplicity of most designs means that this type of juicer doesn’t intimidate people who don’t consider themselves mechanically minded. Juicers of this type are typically found in settings such as health food supermarkets, discount retail stores, and any type of store where organic vegetables are sold.
