We have often wondered about this many times. So now let’s end the
debate here and now. We all know that drinking fruit and vegetable juices is
good for health. But what we don’t have a clue about is which type of juicer
would the best for us. Finally, I have decided to look at the pros and cons of cold
press juicer and centrifugal juicer. Initially most of the households had
centrifugal juicers, even today many of the households still use this juicer.
The centrifugal juicer extracts juice in the traditional method
i.e. via centrifugal force. Here are the pros of using a centrifugal juicer
over a cold press juicer.
Pros
1. Centrifugal
juicers are very easy to clean.
2. They are
also relatively faster than the cold press juicers.
3. You can put
the fruits and vegetables in the juicer as it is, since they don’t have to be
chopped or cut before being put in the juicer.
4. They are
usually great for juicing for smoothies of Apples, Pears, Celery, Oranges etc.
5. Some of them
are easy mobile to move around.
6. They can be operated very easily.
7. One of the
most important pros is that they are very cheap as compared to cold press
juicer.
Cons
1. Fast blade
action can heat up the machine, which in turn can make the juice foamy and
oxidise quicker and destroy beneficial enzymes and nutrients in the juice.
2. The juice
extraction is not proper as there are some parts of juice left in the filters.
3. They cannot
be used for juicing leafy vegetables such as spinaches.
4. The juice
produced is also of very less quantity
5. The sound of
a centrifugal juicer is as much as a blender.
6. The juicer
creates a large amount of leftover in the form of pulp leading to a lot of
wastage. These juicers are very Hard to clean.
7. These
juicers are worthless against nuts.
Now let’s look at the pros and cons of a cold press juicer.
Pros
1. The juice
contains more nutrients.
2. No froth is
formed only fresh juice is obtained.
3. It extracts
more juice than a centrifugal juicer.
4. It functions
very quietly.
5. It produces
lesser leftover pulp than centrifugal juicers.
6. It Juices leafy
veggies and nuts more efficiently than centrifugal
7. More
gratitude for the end result and the delicate process your juice has gone
through
Cons
The only 2 cons that cold
press juicer probably has is that it is costlier than centrifugal
juicer and it takes more time to juice fruits and veggies. But if you are
considering the health factor, there is no doubt which juicer is better.
