Juice from pink grapefruit contains
more vitamin A than from white
grapefruit.
TIPS ANd hINTS
Choose fresh fruit that is firm, not
soft – it will yield more juice.
Always wash citrus fruit before juicing
to remove pesticides and residues
from handling.
yIELdS
• Grapefruit – 1 medium grapefruit
is approximately 1 pound and will
yield about 1 cup of juice.
Room-temperature fruit will yield
more juice than refrigerated fruit.
• Lemons – Approximately 4 to 6
lemons equal one pound and will
yield about 1 cup of lemon juice.
One lemon yields about 3
tablespoons juice and 2 to 3
teaspoons zest.
Roll fruits on the countertop with the
palm of your hand a few times to
increase juice yield.
Remove all seeds, but leave in pulp
when using juice in baking – it will
add flavor.
• Limes – Approximately 6 to 8
medium limes equal one pound,
which will yield about 2∕3 – ¾ cup
of juice.
If a recipe calls for citrus “zest,”
remove zest prior to juicing.
Freeze leftover juice in measured
“juice cubes,” using ice cube trays.
Thaw to use.
• Oranges – Approximately 2 to 4
oranges equal one pound and will
yield about 1 cup of juice, 1 to 2
tablespoons zest.
Choose oranges, lemons and limes
with smooth, brightly colored skin.
The best are firm, plump and heavy
for their size. Small brown areas on
the skin (“scald” spots) will not affect
flavor or juiciness. Avoid lemons/
limes with hard or shriveled skin.
BENEFITS
Citrus juice is an excellent source of
vitamin C, but the juice begins to lose
its vitamin power after squeezing.
Fresh citrus juice loses 20% of its
vitamin C potency within 24 hours.
The best juice is “just squeezed.”
Lemon and lime juice can be used
interchangeably in most recipes
(margaritas are an exception).
There is no comparison between the
flavor of fresh lemon and lime juices
and their purchased refrigerated or
frozen counterparts. Fresh juice has
significantly more flavor than the
purchased juices and will make your
finished recipes much tastier.
Grapefruits should have thin, finely
textured, brightly colored skin and
be firm yet springy to palm texture.
The thinner the skin, the more juice.
Hollow skins that remain after juicing
citrus fruit are nice containers for
desserts such as sorbets.
Sweet oranges make the best juice,
but you can make orange juice from
any type of orange. Sweet oranges
include both juice oranges and navel
oranges. Navel oranges are
identifiable by their prominent navel –
their thick skins are much easier to
peel, and are generally seedless.
Juice oranges have thinner skins,
and often are chockfull of seeds.
OPERATION
1. Place juicer on a clean, dry
counter.
2. Remove the cover and select
low, medium or high pulp setting
on the reamer/sieve assembly by
rotating the cone according to
the arrows.
4
14. Rotate the reamer all the way
to the left, to the release (Rel)
position.
Low Pulp
Medium Pulp
High Pulp
3. Place a glass or container under
2-cup measure and no higher
than 5 3∕8" under the spout.
4. Make sure spout is in the open
position.
15. Remove the sieve assembly from
the juicing container, with one
hand on the sieve and the other
on the reamer, pulling slightly to
separate.
5. Slice fruit horizontally.
6. Place center of citrus fruit on
the center of the juicing reamer.
For large and small citrus fruits,
place palm of hand over the fruit.
16. Rinse both parts and repeat
steps 5–12 until you have the
desired amount of juice.
7. Press fruit against reamer by
using firm steady pressure to
activate juicing mechanism.
CLEANING ANd
8. If you remove the pressure,
reamer may reverse direction
once pressure is reapplied –
this is normal and provides
more even, effective juicing.
Squeezing the fruit while

pressing down on the reamer

steps 5–7.
Wipe stainless steel housing with
a damp cloth (such as a microfiber
cloth).
10. After approximately 1 lb. of fruit

Never put the motor housing in
water or other liquid to clean.
