Electric juice extractors mechanically separate juice from the solid part (pulp) of most fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, and herbs. The pulp is usually discarded, but can also be used in muffins and breads or composting. An electric juice extractor consists of a plastic, dome-shaped container and housing, a stainless steel cutting blade, and a strainer powered by an electric motor. There are essentially three different type of machine to choose from. The automatic ones are called centrifugal or masicating juice extractors. The centrifugal juice extractor uses cutters that shred food then it is spun in a basket. Masticating juicers chew up the fruit and vegetables and operate at a lower speed. They produce juice that can be stored and used longer due to less oxidation. They are less expensive. The third kind of juice extractor is the hydraulic press juicer. This is the best quality and most expensive unit. This unit cuts and grates into a vortex tribulator that is put in a linen bag then placed under the hydraulic press. The press exerts great force producing juice with little oxidation that has a long shelf life. The market for electric juice extractors has grown considerably in the last 10 years.
