through to the juice. The skin of
lemons and limes do not have this
bitter flavour and as such can be
juiced. Leave about one third of the
skin of lemons and limes on.
What can I juice with a BioChef
juicer and what should I avoid?
The BioChef juicer can juice
just about all types of fruits and
vegetables.
This is a cold press juicer and
therefore does not have a cutting
unit, so do not place any of the
following in the juicer as it may cause
damage:
•
hard coconut fibre – soft, young
flesh is ok
• seeds (except sesame, or other
softer seeds)
• unsoaked/roasted nuts (except
peanuts and other softer nuts)
• legumes
• sugar cane
• frozen ingredients - for sorbet
remove fruit from freezer 5-10
minutes before using.
• liquorice root or other woody
materials
• dried herbs and spices
• stone fruit with stones in
• olives
Can I make soy, nut and rice milk?
Yes you can easily make nut milk
using your juicer, simply refer to the
Recipes section for instructions.
Can I grind seeds, grains or legumes
with the BioChef juicer?
The BioChef juicer can make a paste
from seeds and grains, however is
not a grinder and using this machine
as such will void the warranty.
Can the BioChef juicer make cold
press olive oil?
No. This is a different process
to juicing and requires different
machinery.
Can I make frozen sorbets?
Yes you can easily make frozen fruit
sorbets using your juicer. Refer to the
recipes section for instructions.
Can I re-juice the discarded pulp in
order to get more juice?
The BioChef Gemini Twin Gear Juicer
is very effective at extracting high
yields and you will find the pulp is dry
and pale which means the highest
possible extraction has taken place.
Left over pulp can be added to
soups or dehydrated to be used as a
stock base.
Is the BioChef juicer suitable for
commercial environments?
We recommend the juicer does
not run for more than 30 minutes
at a time. Therefore, if using in a
commercial environment we would
advise operating two or three juicers
intermittently.
