CONTENTS
After years of experience, months of design and testing, Optimum has teamed up with
some of the world’s most reputable slow-juicer manufacturers to launch the revolutionary
Optimum500Cold-Press Juicer.
Fruit Juices
The Optimum 500 is able to easily juice anything from a
soft berry to a hard apple, creating a healthy drink with 35%
more juice than conventional juicers.
Vegetable Juices
The Cold Press Process of the Optimum 500 will slowly
juice hard vegetables to leafy greens in seconds,
maintaining maximum living nutriments and enzymes, just
chop them up and o you go.
Wheatgrass
Wheatgrass, aloe leaves, pine needles and other medicinal
herbs can be juiced with ease using the Cold Press
Process of the Optimum 500, when you follow the simple
preparationsteps.
Nut Milks
Soak almonds, pistachios, Brazilian nuts and many more
nuts overnight, add water and place in your Optimum 500
for a nutritionally fresh nut-milk.
Ice cream from frozen fruits
The Optimum 500 can turn your favourite fruits into a
fat free, preservative free, beautiful guilt-free bowl of
icecream.
OPTIMUM 500 COLD-PRESS JUICER

2 3
Soy Milk
The Optimum 500 can replace a traditional soy milk
machine, as the Cold Press Process can extract milk from
soaked soy beans in seconds.
Nut Butters
Although we recommend the Optimum Blender for nut
butters, soaked nuts processed in the Optimum 500 Juicer
have the enzyme inhibitors removed making them more
digestible. You must remove the wiper blade attachment
before preparing nut butter. Limit of 500 grams at a time.
Baby Food
The Optimum 500 can make healthy food for your baby,
juicing fruits and vegetables into either a juice or a healthy
pudding full of nutriments and minerals.
Self-Cleaning
No need for a dishwasher, the Optimum 500 can self-clean, removing most of the pulp
beforerinsing.
Comprehensive Warranty
All Optimum products are covered by an international warranty, supported by service centres in
Australia, New Zealand, Europe, United States, United Kingdom and other countries.

FOOD PREPARATION & JUICING TECHNIQUE
The Optimum 500 Juicer is versatile and gets great results every time. It makes nut milks, frozen
desserts and baby food along with being able to juice grasses, fruits and vegetables.
If you don’t use the Optimum Slow Juicer correctly, it can end up creating a large amount of pulp
in the juice or become blocked. Blockage can occur due to the way you prepare the fruits and
vegetables before juicing or how you feed them into the feed tube. Preparation is the key to
easyjuicing.
All fruits and vegetables must be prepared as follows:
• Refrigerate your product prior to juicing. This will also give you a less pulpy juice.
• Rinse thoroughly.
• Remove any seeds or hard ends.
• Cut the ingredients into thin pieces that fit in the feed tube. Ensure all pieces are approximately
3-5cm in length at most.
NB: This is especially important for fibrous vegetables such as celery, kale, spinach and all grasses.
Familiarise yourself with the tips below for optimal results:
TIP 1: DON’T PRESS/SHOVE FOOD INTO THE OPTIMUM 500 SLOW JUICER
Most of us are used to juice with the old-style centrifugal juicing machines. If you recall, those
machines require you to forcefully press/shove food into them, and allow large items like whole
apples. You actually had to push hard on carrots and apples to shove them into the spinning blade
where they were shredded into tiny flying pieces.
Do not use this same pushing/pressing/shoving force with the Optimum 500 Slow Juicer! There
is no spinning blade and no dizzying shredding taking place. No pressing is required. Instead, simply
let your food fall into the “chewing juicing screw.” Virtually no force is necessary! In fact, forcing more
food into it can cause too much vegetable mass to end up in the juicing screw at one time, and this
will result in pulp overflowing into your juice, or the juicer to become blocked.
When juicing grasses, feed the Optimum 500 a small amount of grass at a time, cutting the grass
into short pieces approx. 3cm long ensures the waste can easily come out of the waste chute. You
do NOT need to “clump” the grass into a ball like you used to do with the centrifugal juicers. In fact,
you can slowly feed small strands of grass, coriander, parsley and other leafy greens without any
problem at all! You can also juice kale and spinach in the same way.
A great tip for large leafy, stringy or fibrous vegetables is to remove the leaf from the stem, cut
both leaves and stems into 3-5cm lengths and feed through gently, letting the juicing screw pull the
ingredients into the juicer, using the tamper only gently if required.
TIP 2: JUICE LOW-FIBRE PLANTS FIRST, AND HIGH-FIBRE PLANTS LAST
Here’s a really important tip: If you’re going to juice high-fibre plants like celery or spinach, juice them
last! Why? Because the fibres in celery tend to accumulate in the ejection port in the juicing bowl at
the bottom of the juicing screw. If this port becomes clogged, then “pulp overflow” will occur, sending
extra pulp into your juice. Following Tip #1 will minimise the chances of this occurring to almost zero.
As long as the port stays open, the pulp in your juice will be minimised. So the best way to do this
is to juice your low-fibre fruits and veggies first: Apples, carrots, etc. Save the stringier, fibrous plants
for last. You’ll get a much better result.
TIP 3: JUICE YOUR JUICE!
If you still find too much pulp in your juice, just pour the juice back through the machine again! You’ll
find that the second time through, nearly all the pulp is removed.
You can also strain it through a nut-milk bag, or the fabric cloth that came in your tofu box.
It is important to follow these three tips as you’ll find that the Optimum 500 Juicer produces very
little pulp in the final juice and will not get blocked.
NB: After you have had your juicer for some time, please check that the silicon wiper blades have
not worn; this can also cause extra pulp in the juice.

CLEANING & MAINTAINING YOUR JUICERTOFU RECIPE
HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE TOFU USING THE OPTIMUM 500 SLOW JUICER
Ingredients
1 ½ cup (300g) uncooked soybeans
4 cups (1L) water
1 tbsp (20ml) ground sea salt
1 tbsp (20ml) white rice vinegar
Method
1. Soak the soybeans in 4 cups of water overnight (approximately 8 - 12 hours) or until you no
longer see wrinkles on the beans. NB: Do not leave uncovered and out during hot weather for
more than a day.
2. Place the fine strainer in position, turn on the juicer and using a medium-sized spoon or ladle,
ladle the soybean and water mix (1:1 ratio) into the juicer. Use all of the soybeans and water. The
water will prevent clogging and yield better results.
3. Soy pulp will be ejected through the waste chute; soy milk will come out of the juice chute.
Optional: Extracted soy milk can be put back into the Optimum juicer for re-straining for finer
and smoother soy milk, which will create softer tofu (if desired). Without re-straining, you will end
up with coarser and more firm tofu.
4. Place soy milk in a saucepan on high heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
5. As soon as the soy milk comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium and add the salt/
vinegarmixture.
6. Stir only 2-3 times very slowly on medium heat and let the soy milk start to curdle (createlumps).
7. Remove from heat once the mixture has curdled and looks like soft bean curd.
8. Place the bottom of the Optimum tofu box inside a large bowl, making sure there is enough
room for water to drain out, and line with the tofu box fabric. Scoop soft bean curd into the
linedpan.
9. Wrapping the fabric evenly over the bean curd, place the lid on top. Place the dual action juicing
screw from the Optimum juicer on top of the tofu press, allowing the weight to squeeze out the
excess juice/milk. In approximately 30 minutes, your homemade tofu is ready to eat.
10. Remove tofu carefully and serve immediately, make into your favourite meal, or refrigerate.
1. Turn device “OFF”. Please do not touch the plug with wet hands.
2. Twist the hopper to unlock by grabbing the two outlets. Make sure the arrow is aligned with
open side before pulling o the bowl.
3. Disassemble the device in reverse to assembly order.
4. Once disassembled, clean it using warm soapy water and cleaning brush provided. Do not
use a metal sponge to clean as this may scratch and damage the device. Do not clean it in the
dishwasher.
5. Do not immerse or rinse the main body under water, use dry towel or wet sponge to clean.
6. Let the parts dry in an open, clean and draft space after washing. Store it out of reach
ofchildren.
In order to extend the product service life, please clean it promptly after usage.
If it appears that the plastic of the containers and parts is very dry, wipe with cooking oil and then
wash with gentle detergent to clean.
SELF-CLEAN
When making more than one juice, it is not necessary to disassemble after juicing each dierent type
of food; a quick self-clean will ensure juice flavours do not mix.
1. Ensure the pitchers are underneath both the waste and juice chutes. Turn o juicing tap.
2. Switch on the juicer and pour a bowl of clean water slowly into the feed tube.
3. Turn on juicing tap drain water after juicing bowl is clean.
NB: Please disassemble fully after juicing is complete and follow the cleaning instructions found in
this manual.
