Best Masticating Juicers

The word masticating means chew or grind. Masticating juicers chew food like our teeth and extract juice from produce. Mastication process breaks down the plant cell wall and squeezes produce to release juice.

Masticating juicers are also known as slow juicers.  They rotate at very slow speed. Avg. speed of a masticating juicer is about 100 RPM. High speed juicers kill essential nutrients and enzymes inside juices.  No heat is produced in masticating juicers; hence they make nutrient rich juices.

Unlike Centrifugal juicers, Masticating juicers are very versatile. Centrifugal juicers can’t juice leafy green well.  Masticating juicer can juice anything ranging from fruits, vegetables to leafy greens like spinach, Wheatgrass, celery etc.  Masticating juicers can play role of a food processor too. There are many masticating juicers which can make nut butter, baby food, fresh pasta, sorbets etc.

Another advantage of Masticating juicer is high yield. They produce 10-30% more juice than centrifugal juicers. They do not waste organic fruits and produce very dry pulp. As a result, you spend less on vegetables than you would with a centrifugal juicer.

There are two types of masticating juicers.

1. 1.       Single gear masticating juice
2. 2.       Twin gear juicer

Twin gear juicers have two gears. They are more efficient than single gear masticating juicers. They produce higher yield than single gear masticating juicers. But they are expensive. Cost of twin gear juicers vary from $400 to $3000.

Now let’s talk about best masticating juicers in the market.

Omega, Tribest, Super Angel and Norwalk are the best masticating juicer brands.

Best single gear masticating juicer model is Omega 8006. It produces very clean pulp free juice with high yield. It’s not just a juicer; it’s a food processor too.  You can make nut butter, baby food, fresh pasta, sorbets etc.
