Frequently Asked Questions
Can I juice any type of fruits and vegetables? Technically speaking, you could. Fruits like
bananas that are rich in starch and with a particular consistency are impossible to be eectively
juiced with a centrifugal juice extractor.
Can I juice greens and soft spine vegetables? Yes! The smaller feed chute of the model
ES700 has been designed for this task.
Is it better to use under ripened fruits or ripe fruits? Fruits that are overly ripe, quickly clog
the juicing basket. This results in wetter pulp and a lower juice yield. Under-ripened fruits are
often bitter and oer a lower juice yield. When possible, use fruits and vegetables which are in
season and are at peak freshness.
Do I have to peel all of the fruits and vegetables before juicing them? Use the same rule
as if you were eating them. Fruits or vegetables with a hard, bitter or inedible skin or rind, such
as melon, pineapple, mango, kiwi, and citrus must be peeled before being inserted in the juice
extractor. Carrots, apples, peaches, and the like can be juiced without being peeled.
Do I have to remove the seeds or stones from some fruits? This is the same rule as above;
always remove stones from apricots, peaches, and other pitted fruits. You do not need to
remove seeds from apples, watermelons, citrus, and other similar fruit with small seeds.
Can I juice citrus? Yes! Citrus oers a great yield of juice. Always remember to peel them rst,
as the skin is usually extremely bitter and also will get stuck underneath the teeth of the grating
disc and into the strainer.
Can I juice fruits and vegetables whole? Yes, given that the conditions above are met (no
need to peel them or remove stones), and it ts into the feed chute. For instance, apples,
carrots, peppers, cucumbers, fennels, etc. can be juiced without any further work apart from
washing them rst.
Why does the Ceado have smaller/dierent teeth? After thorough research and multiple
tests, we’ve found that smaller teeth will grate smaller chunks of fruits/veggies, thus enabling
the net/lter mesh to better “exploit” them. This leads to higher yield and dryer pulp.
Why does the Ceado have such a heavy asynchronous motor? We chose a reliable, low
speed asynchronous motor that performs to guarantee enough speed and torque to exploit the
fruits and vegetables but not too much to burn the vitamins. Coupled with the design of the net
and grating discs, we’ve found that it is the perfect balance for a smooth, clean juice and great
output and yield.
How often do I have to replace the motors bearings? Never! As long as the machine is
properly cleaned and maintained, you should never have to replace the motors bearings. Ceado
uses the highest quality and longest-lasting motor bearings available.
Is it ok to pour water through the chutes to moisten the basket? Yes, but very carefully.
This can be helpful only if the juicer is not going to be used for a while, as to prevent leftover
fruit or vegetables from drying on the basket.
