Blender juicer

Blender Juicer

Features and benefits

The blender juicer is distinguished by its versatility. This type of 2-in-1 kitchen appliance belongs to small household appliances, although the size of this design is rather large, since it combines the function of a blender plus a juicer in one device at the same time. This universal type of household appliances is perfect for modern housewives, especially for families who adhere to a healthy diet and tend to consume maximum vitamins. In addition, it is an indispensable thing for those who can not decide what is most needed: a juicer, a mixer or a food processor. This indispensable device can perform the role of any of the above kitchen appliances.

The advantage of this type of home appliances is that it is very multifunctional. It can be used for the preparation of fruit and vegetable cocktails, juices, mashed potatoes and other healthy dishes and drinks. Juicer with blender function will allow you to cook the most healthy food at home.

Features

The device of these two structural elements, at first glance, has almost the same common similar type of structure, but they perform completely different functions. In the inner part of each of this element is the base with knives, but they have an excellent purpose. In the juice squeezing section, there are knives with a mesh, and in the chopper section, there are larger blades, cutting or mixing products. On many devices there is a function for adjusting the speed and power of a separate blender and a separate squeezer. This button on the first element of the device will speed up the grinding process and affect the consistency of the substance obtained, and on the second element the button adjusts the amount of squeezed juice.

Blender, first of all, is designed for mixing products, but it also performs other functions, and the juicer performs only one of its main role-spinning. Of course, it is possible, by chopping vegetables or fruits for a long time with a blender, to make juice, but it will be very thick, and a large amount of pulp will float in it. That is why the function of the juicer in this device is indispensable. In this part of the design there is a special container for accumulated thick pulp, which allows you to separate it and get pure juice of liquid consistency. As a rule, in all such household kitchen appliances, these two elements function separately, having only a common basis and common power supply from the network.

Another difference is that usually the function of squeezing the juice is limited to a certain time interval, and the execution time of the grinder function is not limited to anything. In addition, the brand and its capacity are designed for a small volume of products, while the juicer is designed for large volumes. That is why it is more often used to prepare stocks of juice for the winter or for a large family. Blender is usually run in order to prepare one or two servings of a cocktail or mashed potatoes.

The functionality of the blender in this device is more extensive. He can make mashed potatoes, chop ice, replace a food processor and even a meat grinder. With it, you can easily cook the overcooking of vegetables for soup, you do not have long and painstakingly chop them. But this element will not be able to fully perform the function of squeezing juice. That is why the 2 in 1 device is so convenient and versatile.

Blender functions

Manufacturers recommend using this element of design for the manufacture of cocktails or the so-called thick vegetable or fruit "smoothies." Some even prepare such drinks for breakfast, they can also replace a light dinner. This cocktail has a very dense and pleasant uniform consistency. The blender is able to grind any hard and soft foods: apples, oranges, bananas and other fruits, carrots, broccoli and other greens, berries, nuts, cereals and cereals, as well as curd with grains and other dairy products. It can be interesting to combine different products, to conduct unusual experiments, but some manufacturers even bundled with this device offer special booklets with juice recipes for juicers and blender cocktails, which are designed specifically for this particular model.

Juicer function

These complex devices have a second indispensable function - juicers or spin, depending on the model. At first glance it may seem that these are two identical functions, but in fact they differ greatly. Both functions are very different from the role of a blender, because they helped to prepare a more liquid substance. But the juicer allows you to get a cleaner and more transparent juice; to use it, it is not necessary to peel and cut the products. This feature is best suited for working out and obtaining juice from solid vegetables and fruits.

The spin function is different from the above, it is faster than the previous one and allows you to prepare more liquid in a short time. For example, a Philips-made device that has a spin function can, in a single approach, squeeze out more than two liters of pure juice, and you will not need to change the capacity for accumulated pulp.

This feature helps to get a thicker natural fresh juice, which will be rich in vitamins and fiber. This substance saturates the body better and more favorably affects it. Nutritionists recommend to use just such a juice during weight loss, because it accelerates metabolic processes in the body.

Spin blender is more suitable for soft berries, fruits and vegetables such as citrus fruits, tomatoes or strawberries. In this regard, this function is inferior to the juicer in diversity, but the spinning has great speed and performance. In this case, the device can use pre-soaked in water nuts, hard fruits or vegetables, and then the effect will be no less good.
