WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO PREPARE FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND LEAFY
GREENS FOR JUICING IN THE OSCAR NEO PLUS SLOW JUICER?
VEGETABLES
We recommend preparing your vegetables by cutting them into pieces that
will simply fall through the feeding chute without assistance. For best results
cut your ingredient into 5cm pieces.
FRUITS
We recommend preparing your fruits by cutting them into pieces that will
simply fall through the feeding chute without assistance. We recommend
removing skins from most citrus fruits
although it is a refreshing taste to leave the skin of limes on. If pulp becomes
clogged around the auger, alternate with firmer ingredients such as carrot or
beetroot.
LEAFY GREENS
Roll leaves into parcels and then fold them in half, ensuring that the parcels
will simply fall through the feeding chute without assistance. You may notice
with some leafy greens that they can cause the Oscar Neo Plus Slow Juicer to
clog. This can be remedied by adding a few pieces of carrot or other fibrous
vegetables, which will help to push through the leafy green material. Also, wet
leaves will not pass through the juicer as well as drier leaves so when washing
produce, pat dry with a kitchen towel before inserting into the Oscar Neo
Plus. Stringy vegetables such as celery The vertical crushing and squeezing
mechanism of the Oscar Neo Plus Slow Juicer means that the smaller you
cut the pieces before you feed them into the shoot, the less likely that the
fibres will become tangled around the internal mechanism. For best results we
recommend cutting your ingredients into 3-5cm pieces.
WHAT ARE THE BEST APPLES FOR JUICING?
We find that fresh and chilled green apples are the best. Nutritionally, green
apples contain various antioxidants, are a good source of Vitamin C and are
considered to be able to prevent the formation of gall stones in the bladder
and help remedy liver and kidney disorders caused by frequent alcohol
consumption.
DO I NEED TO PEEL CITRUS FRUITS BEFORE JUICING?
You will need to peel the rind from oranges and mandarins, as generally this
is inedible. The rind of lemon and lime can be left on if you enjoy this taste in
your juice.
WHAT CAN I JUICE WITH AN OSCAR NEO PLUS AND WHAT SHOULD I AVOID?
The Oscar Neo Plus can juice just about all types of fruits and vegetables except
the below:
• Coconuts
• Seeds
• Unsoaked/roasted nuts
• Legumes
• Sugar Cane
• Frozen ingredients
• Fish or meat
• Liquorice root or other woody materials
• Dried herbs and spices
• Stone fruit with stones in
WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO PREPARE NUTS FOR MAKING NUT MILKS?
We recommend raw almonds as the best nut (although it is actually classified
as a kernel) for making milks with. All nuts should be soaked for at least 8 hours
and then rinsed thoroughly. Feed the soaked nuts simultaneously with water
into the juicer. We have found that 250g of nuts makes about a litre of milk
with a good consistency. Of course this is all down to personal preference and
simply add more nuts / less water for a creamier milk or less nuts / more water
for a thinner milk.
Switch the Oscar Neo Plus Slow Juicer on and start placing handfuls of nuts
into the feeding chute whilst slowly pouring the water in at the same time. The
goal is to be placing your last nuts into the feeding chute just as the water runs
out. This may take a few tries to get right but the results
are worth it. Other nuts worth trying either in combination with almonds or
alone are Brazil, Macadamia, Hazelnut, Walnut and Pecan. We also recommend
adding agave syrup, maple syrup, cacao nibs, dates (with stones removed),
apple juice, vanilla or cinnamon as sweeteners and flavour enhancers. PLEASE
NOTE: Use only raw nuts, not roasted and ensure that you always soak the nuts
for a minimum of eight hours before feeding into your juicer.
CAN I GRIND SEEDS, GRAINS OR LEGUMES WITH THE OSCAR NEO PLUS?
No. The Oscar Neo Plus Slow Juicer is not a grinder, using this machine as such
will void the warranty.
