The Smeg slow juicer allows everyone to get the most out of the fresh fruits and vegetables they have. It uses state-of-the-art technology to retain vital vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre, phytonutrients and enzymes by pressing the ingredients slowly against a sieve, extracting juices with total precision. A special feature of the SJF01 is a juice density regulation lever and “reverse” function that allows you to customise the amount of fibrous pulp in the juice. Allowing more pulp will thicken the juice, while less will thin the liquid; it’s all down to personal taste. Any unrequired pulp finds its way out via a second funnel on the appliance. The dry pulp is not a waste product and could be used to thicken soup, baked into cakes or used in skincare recipes, just to name a few. The slow juicer is a much gentler approach to juicing with a helical structure screwing system that reproduces the action of a manual squeeze, just with more pressure. This means it can extract pure juice from both fine and hard fruits, vegetables and leafy greens such as kale and spinach. Smeg’s exclusive Slow Squeezing Technology(TM) doesn’t have metal blades and preserves both nature’s taste and the ingredients’ original nutrients. Squeezing happens at 43 RPM and a 150W motor means it produces juice extremely efficiently.
