Juicer for a large number of apples

Freshly squeezed juice is a source of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. The most accessible and common fruits from which you can prepare this healthy drink are apples. Apple juice has a low calorie content and in chemical composition practically does not differ from fresh fruit. It is recommended to use it for anemia, low hemoglobin content in the blood, reduced immunity, etc. You can prepare a small amount of juice for the family, for example, for breakfast, using a universal juicer. With the task of processing a large volume of raw materials can not cope ordinary household juicer. For a large number of apples, you must choose a more powerful device. About this and talk in this article.

Kinds of juicers for a large number of apples

First of all, let's look at the types of juicers with which you can squeeze juice from a large number of apples.

Screw

Due to the low screw speed, the juice is of good quality.

Important! It preserves vitamins, microelements and other useful substances as much as possible because the drink does not heat during the spin-off.

This type has a number of advantages and is excellent for short work. To process a large number of apples, while not spending too much time and energy, it will not work for such reasons:

• must be crushed before processing;
• from soft fruits is mashed, and additional processing is required to separate the juice;The
• device overheats and requires regular shutdown every half hour.

Centrifugal

The knife-grater rotates at a tremendous speed, and apples, falling on it, are crushed. Under the influence of centrifugal force, the resulting pulp is thrown onto the walls of the centrifuge, the juice is separated and passes through special openings to the outside, and the cake remains inside. This kind of juicers is highly productive and is recommended for processing a large number of apples.

Important! In the process of spinning, the juice is heated, but this is not a significant drawback, since during the harvest for the winter the drink undergoes a thermal treatment.

Press

Apples are crushed to a state of gruel, which is sent under the press. The juice obtained in this way is of very good quality, practically free of flesh, does not heat up and does not oxidize. Such a model can be easily assembled with your own hands and vary the performance. So, with a press volume of 20 liters, in 5 minutes you can get a bucket of juice.

Important! At large enterprises, the process of squeezing juice is done with the help of a press. As in the production process it is necessary to process huge volumes of raw materials, these are the overall and very powerful installations - industrial juicers.

Considering the high productivity of the centrifugal juicer and the minimum preparation of apples before processing, in comparison with other devices, we will consider what parameters to pay attention to when buying it.

Juicer selection criteria for a large number of apples

When choosing a juicer for large apples, pay attention to such characteristics:

• Working power. The efficiency and efficiency of the juicer are directly dependent on the power - the more powerful the machine, the higher these figures. A powerful juicer is able to continuously process a large number of apples without overheating the engine.
• Speed ​​of rotation of the working element. To obtain juice with a minimum amount of pulp for ripe, soft apples, one should choose a low speed, for a solid one - a high speed of rotation.
• Circular filter. Must be made of high quality stainless steel, have a large number of holes. The quality of the juice depends on the diameter and the number of holes.
• Material. At more qualitative and expensive models the case is executed from metal or qualitative shock-proof plastic.
• Throat. From the diameter of the neck depends on the ability to load apples entirely, without cutting them. For apples, the optimal diameter is 63-85 mm.
• Automatic reset function. The presence of this function allows to obtain juice of better quality, without getting into it processing products, and also eliminates periodic cleaning by hand.
• Foam sealer. Apples in the process of processing form a large amount of foam, and getting it into the juice adversely affects its quality.
• Protection system. If the assembly is incomplete, the protection system will prevent the appliance from turning on, which eliminates the risk of injury to the cutting parts of the juicer.

Advantages of a professional juicer for a large number of apples:

• The quality of the juicer components' production ensures a long and non-stop operation of the device.
• The use of stainless steel in the manufacture of the device avoids oxidation of the juicer elements, which is inevitable due to the high content of iron in apples.
• Presence of foam cutter, which not all household juicers are equipped with.
• Built-in filter from the skin and bones accelerates and facilitates the work, and works in the modes of obtaining juice with the pulp and without it.
• No need to press on the apple when loading it into the juicer.
• There is no need to grind apples before processing.

Best models of juicers for a large number of apples

The best producers of domestic juicers for a large volume of apples are Russia and Belarus. This is due to the fact that in other countries, in general, do not engage in processing apples in everyday life. Let's consider the basic models.

Rossoshanka

This model of juicer, popular since Soviet times, is produced in Belarus and is an improved copy of the Salyut model.

Important! This device is designed for squeezing juice from hard vegetables and fruits, and is able to process from 60 kg of apples per hour.

The wide neck allows you to load apples whole. The quality of the juice is good, the pulp in the product remains very small - 7-8%.

Key Features:

• Power - 180W.
• Housing material - plastic.
• The weight of the device is 10.2 kg.
• Cylindrical shape of the separator.

Disadvantages of this juicer:

• No automatic reset of the cake, which requires a stop in operation to clean the separator.
• Strong vibration, which is caused by accumulation of cake in the separator.

Salute

This juicer is made in Russia and is the predecessor of "Rossoshanka", therefore their main functions and disadvantages are similar. The differences are only in the following characteristics:

• Power - 400W.
• Weight - 13 kg.
• Processing speed - 60 kg per hour.

Summer cottage

Russian representative of juicers for a large number of apples.

Qualitative characteristics of

"Dachnitsa" in terms of characteristics is very similar to previous models and has such basic parameters:

• Power consumption - 280 Watts.
• Weight - 10.5 kg.
• Spin efficiency - 50%.
• Productivity - 1 l of juice per minute.
• Housing material - shockproof plastic.
• Drum material - stainless steel.
• Cylindrical shape of the separator.
• Cyclic mode of operation - after 15 minutes of operation, a 5-minute rest break is required.
• Wide mouth for loading raw materials.

Disadvantages:

• No automatic ejection of cake.
• Noisy work.
• Difficulty cleaning the inner mesh, as it is not removed.
• The juice outlet is located from the bottom, not from the side. This makes it impossible to attach to the table and limits the choice of a container for collecting juice( you need to use a low volume or a lot of small ones).

Zhuravinka

This model of the Belarusian manufacturer is capable of processing up to 30 kg of apples per hour. A distinctive feature is the availability of the shredder function, which will allow it to be used for the preparation of salads. To reset the cake, the model is equipped with a special lever.

Preserving juice

It will not be enough to purchase a juice extractor for the juice preparation. We will become acquainted with the main processes while preserving the drink:

1. Preparing apples. It is necessary to thoroughly wash the raw materials, if necessary cut them into pieces.
2. Preparing for operation of the juicer. It is necessary to check serviceability, assembly and readiness.
3. Juice extraction. In the process of work, you need to load apples into the machine and push it with a pusher. The pressed juice is collected in a separate container. If there is no automatic reset function, clear the device manually.
4. Pasteurization of juice. The resulting juice should be boiled.
5. Preparation of packaging. Sterilize the container in which the juice will be stored.
6. Hot juice is filled in a sterile container and closes.

If you have an orchard, you should think about purchasing such a powerful "helper".It should be noted that the juicer can be used not only in everyday life. With it, you can prepare a large amount of freshly squeezed juice for dining rooms, for example, in a sanatorium, a hospital, large enterprises, etc.
