Breville JE900 Juice Fountain Professional Juice Extractor Reviews

Prepare delicious, vitamin-rich juices in seconds, thanks to the extra large feed chute and efficient stainless steel micro mesh filter. No need to pre-chop fruits and veggies such as apples, tomatoes, and carrots. Just place them in the chute and push with the pusher. While juicing in bulk, there’s no need to disassemble the juice fountain to empty the pulp container, it just slides right out. A powerful motor pushes fruits and veggies through the mesh filter to separate seeds and fiber, maximizing juice output. You can have a glass of juice in 5 seconds, and be through clean up in not much more. The easy clean design has fewer parts and rounded smooth surfaces that can be easily rinsed after use.
Get a nutritious start to your day with fresh tomato, carrot, apple, or orange juice–or invent your own healthy blend. This powerful (and some would say noisy) 600-watt juicer churns out a quart of juice in just one minute. An extra-wide feed tube saves chopping time since it accommodates whole tomatoes, carrots, and small apples, and the removable parts make this one of the fastest juicers to clean. To operate, simply turn the juicer on and insert washed whole or chopped fruits and vegetables through the feed tube–pulp and seeds will shoot out one side into the provided pulp container, and juice will pour out the spout. To catch the juice, you can use either a glass or a provided juice container with lid. The juice container features a handy divider to separate the juice from the froth when pouring. Weighing thirteen pounds, the juice extractor measures 15 by 6-1/2 by 16 inches and comes with a one-year warranty. A helpful instruction booklet that includes tips and recipes is included to get you started. –Ann Bieri

From the Manufacturer

Changing the World, One Apple at a Time…

Unrivalled power meets highest quality components and revolutionary design in this life changing appliance. Touted as North America’s fastest juicer, after being timed making an 8-ounce glass of juice in an astonishing 5 seconds, the world’s fastest juicer might be a more apt description. Designed by innovative, world-renowned engineer Keith Hensel in 1999, the Breville Juice Fountain was the world’s first domestic juicer to accept whole fruit and vegetables with no chopping, peeling, slicing, or dicing.

Named for its ability to produce literally a fountain of continuous juice, where other juicers generate a mere trickle, the JE900 Juice Fountain has seriously changed the way the world looks at juice. Where traditional juice extractors require time consuming preparation, feeding, and cleaning, the Juice Fountain completes the whole home juicing experience in less time than it takes to brew a cup of coffee. The Juice Fountain’s ability to juice whole fruit, to reduce juicing time by up to 90%, and to yield up to 30% more juice, stems from a combination of innovations. Even its unofficial tagline as “a juice bar in your own home” doesn’t do justice to just how fast and convenient the machine is. Thousands of families from Australia to Japan and everywhere in between enjoy fresh, healthy juice every day thanks to the Breville JE900 Juice Fountain.

Amazing Innovations

 

600-Watt Centered Motor

The Juice Fountain’s motor is positioned directly under the drive shaft so no power is lost in electrical transition or resistance. At 600 watts, the motor is one of the most powerful domestic juicers available, and its centered location directly over the drive shaft means a true 600 watts of power is delivered to the cutter and filter. The higher wattage not only delivers faster and more efficient juicing, it’s also powerful enough to juice regularly without significant stress on the motor.

Patented Center Knife Blade Cutter Assembly

The Juice Fountain is the world’s only large feed tube juicer to feature a centered feed tube and knife blade cutter assembly. Other juicers receive fruit and vegetables toward the circumference of the cutter-blade putting uneven pressure on the cutter and filter. As a result, it is not possible to balance the cutting assembly to attain sufficient speed for optimum juicing. The patented Juice Fountain design accepts fruit directly on to the center of the cutting assembly where a small, dual-bladed Italian made knife shreds the pulp into tiny particles and pushes it against the filter.

Over 14,000 RPMs!

The unique centered cutter assembly, together with the 600 watt motor, allows the Juice Fountain to deliver unparalleled speed to the filter. The Juice Fountain’s Italian micro-mesh filter spins at an incredible 14,500 revolutions per minute. The greater the revolutions, the faster the fruit can be juiced, and the greater the pressure on the pulp against the filter. Breville’s lightning speed filter ‘G-forces’ the maximum amount of juice from the pulp and makes an 8-ounce glass of juice in as little as 5 seconds (tested using apples). The 14,500 rpms of the Juice Fountain compares to about 5,000 rpms on most other juicers.

Italian-Made Stainless Steel Micro Mesh Cutter and Filter

Italian engineering is renowned for its uncompromising quality and eye for detail. The Juice Fountain’s micromesh filter is no exception. Comparing this to other filters it is easy to see that the engineering differences are significant. The filter holes on the Breville filter are so tiny that the individual holes can’t be detected with the naked eye yet the screen is see-through. The thousands and thousands of tiny, micro-mesh holes maximize the juicing surface area to squeeze every last drop of juice from the pulp. Because the holes are so small, they effectively block any seeds, pulp, or rind to deliver nothing but fresh, delicious juice.

3-Inch Wide Feed Tube

The Juice Fountain features the largest circular feed tube of all juicers in America. The unique rounded shape allows for easy insertion of whole apples, pears, tomatoes, peeled oranges, even handfuls of carrots at a time. Where other juicers take several minutes of chopping, peeling, slicing, and dicing, the Breville is large enough and powerful enough to accept whole fruit. This revolutionary design reduces juicing time by up to 90%, making the Juice Fountain a practical way to get natural nutrients and vitamins for the whole family each and every day.

 

Extra Large Pulp Container

 

The extra large pulp container is designed to fit a standard plastic grocery bag to capture all the pulp for no-fuss clean up. Because the pulp is exceptionally dry with the Breville Juicer, and the pulp container is so large, it is practical to juice continually for several minutes before the pulp container needs to be emptied. For those that don’t want to waste the pulp, the Juice Fountain’s free instruction manual has delicious recipes for muffins and cakes using the pulp.

 

Smooth Rounded Dishwasher Safe Parts

Easy cleaning was at the top of the priority list for the Breville design team when engineering the Juice Fountain. Having tested dozens of juicers and spoken to thousands of consumers, the overwhelming response was that juice extractors are just too difficult to clean. The Breville Juice Fountain is a delightful contrast. Not only is the pulp container designed to insert a grocery bag to capture the pulp, but there are only three other parts that require cleaning. All of them are top-shelf dishwasher safe and feature smooth, rounded surfaces that rinse easily under the tap. Even washing by hand takes only seconds as pulp residue slides right off the smooth surfaces. The Juice Fountain comes with a bonus cleaning brush designed to slide effortlessly around the micro-mesh cutter and filter making cleaning a breeze.

Bonus Juice Pitcher with Froth Separator

The Juice Fountain comes with a bonus 1-quart juice pitcher. Like the machine itself, the pitcher is cleverly designed with an adjustable froth separator. Some juice recipes produce a froth residue at the top of the juice and while some consumers enjoy the froth, others would rather drink their juice without it. The easy slide froth separator allows the user to have as little or as much froth as they desire. The bonus pitcher also comes with an air tight lid to store left over juice in the fridge.

The Breville Story

Breville’s first electrical appliance rolled off the factory line in 1932. Over 70 years, and 30 million satisfied customers later, they’re still one of the world’s most innovative name in kitchen electrics. From the world’s first scissor action sandwich maker, to the world’s first juicer to juice whole fruit, Breville continues to bring clever ideas to life. Their renowned design team ensures that every Breville product makes life simpler, works smarter, and looks better, than any other appliance on Earth. Despite Breville’s global success, they only entered the U.S. market in January 2003 and are quickly becoming one of the fastest growing brands in the country. Breville have a proud history of innovation and an uncompromising vision to bring more great ideas to life.

“fabulous!”
By John Jackson (ny)
well so far i have juiced everything under the sun with no problem this juicer is very reliable and easy to clean!

“Satisfied…good purchase”
By biosolution (Florida)
I’m new to juicing. I spent considerable time reading about juicing and juicers, as this is my first experience. Based on my research, I chose a masticating juicer over the centrifigal. Maticating takes more fruit/vegetable preperation time and more time for cleanup; but I, and others, think it’s worth it for a superior end result.

Although the SoloStar II is at the lower price-end of masticators (but generally more expensive than centrifigals), this juicer is of good quality, performs as advertised, and I am pleased with my selection.

Some of the accessory parts like the holding containers and screens are not as heavy duty, or of the same quality as the machine itself, but this should not be a consideration for buying this product.

“SoloStar II Juicer”
By S. LIM (Seattle)
I prefer the single gear juicer than the centrifuge kind. If you do not mind cutting up your vege & fruits like me. I like it because it is quiet & does a good job eventhough it only has a 180W motor. It “chews” slowly but thoroughly. I do not mind the low speed. I used to own a Samson but I think the Solostar II does a much better job because it has a longer and heavier auger. I think the single gear juicer does a better job in juicing leafy greens such as wheatgrass than the centrifuge kind. The juicer is heavy which I do not mind as long as it does a good job & runs quiet.

Tristar Jack LaLanne Deluxe Juice Machine Reviews

Along with powerful juice extracting capability, this machine offers a raised platform to accommodate measuring cups and large glasses, and an overflow platform to catch excess juice. It is easily disassembled for cleaning, and component parts are dishwasher safe. Along with the fruit itself, some seeds, stems, and rinds can be processed in this machine for full nutritional benefit. Unlike many juice machines, this one doesn’t leave lots of pulp, instead its patented extraction technology delivers more juice. As long as the fruit or vegetable will fit into the extra large feed tube, and doesn’t contain a hard pit or undesirable portions, there is no need to precut. The recipe books will tempt you with selections such as Tropical Bliss Sorbet, Orange Macadamia Muffins, and Carrot Ginger Soup.

“Great Machine”
By Sharelle Wodehouse
All things can be improved and I’m sure this machine is no exception. However, we have settled into a happy routine of fresh juice every morning for over a month now and are very satisfied with the way this machine functions. I bought this juicer second-hand without instruction booklet. I am not too bright at working out such things (my coffee maker experience springs immediately to mind) but I managed after a bit of trial and error and common sense to work it out and it is great. I have never had fruit flying out of it or stained counters etc. To be fair, beets and carrots will always go out of their way to stain your things whether you juice them or not. If you think you might struggle to work out what the base and cup holder is for and leave the pusher out, you may be safer buying your juice or hiring staff. I also hate the cleaning bit, but then again, I don’t like cleaning my house either – necessary side effect. Once you have a regular routine of use and cleaning it is a very simple and happy experience.

Music Review of A Mouthful by The Do

â??The Doâ? are a French two-piece or duo indie band based in Paris. The Do were formed in 2007 and they are Dan Levy (Musician) and Olivia Merilahti (Vocals). Their music covers a wide variety of genres that include indie rock, indie pop, folk rock and a bit of electronic stuffs.

A Mouthful has an album appetizer that everyone of us will definitely give at least a thumb-up to it. In â??Playground Hustleâ?, a group of children cover most of the singing part while Olivia just adds in some extra weights here and there. The music in this track is exceptional as well. The flute on Playground Hustle reminds me of my younger days when i had to learn flute-playing in school. The music which is mainly contributed by synthesizers also creates a very good opener impression here. Love the cheeky part where it almost sounds like the movie â??Jawâ? theme.

â??At Last!â? is groovy indie pop tune which showcases the Oliviaâ??s vocals. She seems to be singing breathlessly and without taking a jiffy just to inhale. The tempo on this track is very consistent and The Do/Dø also bring in some extra sound or note to make it much fuller. But just by listening to Oliviaâ??s angelic voice, itâ??s more than sufficient to fall in love with this track. After the second chorus, â??Made up my mind now itâ??s time settle down, but donâ??t hold this against me I gotta run nowâ?¦â? The short bridge contains some clever guitar playing and country-like harmonica layered with Oliviaâ??s melodic voice. Itâ??s just beautiful! At Last!

â??On My Shouldersâ? continues the amazing rhythm and sound of The Do/Dø. On My Shoulders has quite a long opening before emerging with Oliviaâ??s beautiful voice. As Olivia sings on in the verse, it sort of drags me along and thus creating a tendency for me to sing. â??Why would I carry such a weight on my shoulders? Why do I always help you carry your boulders? You wonder why I carry such a weight on my shoulders?â?¦â? Although On My Shoulders is sung in a repetition of musical note and tone, but The Do/Dø make it really unforgettable. The rhythm just keeps playing in my head now, and itâ??s stuck in my head!

â??Song For Loversâ? is an acoustic track with only Oliviaâ??s voice can be heard and in the background, guitar plays along before another string instrument violin appears. In the end, Olivia sings with emotion, â??Hereâ??s a song for lovers who donâ??t care if they bleedâ?¦â? An honest and heartfelt track by The Do/Dø!

â??The Bridge Is Brokenâ? has little guitar steps in the beginning. Once Olivia enters, it sets the right tone and rhythm that follow suit. After the verse, Olivia just repeats â??The bridge is brokenâ?¦â? and while she is singing the chorus, the deep guitar plucking never stops. It just weights in after the Oliviaâ??s voice. Very, very nice to hear! At times, the music shows some Jazzy side of it. In the bridge, the music comes in with more variety. The mixing of The Bridge Is Broken really good, and the use of synthesizers and other equipments just prove to be amazing! I donâ??t care whether the bridge is broken or whatever, as long as The Do/Dø are here to sing, the bridge is always fixed.

â??Stay (Just A Little Bit More)â? is cheeky and catchy. Just the perfect song for couples anywhere in the world. You have to check out the guitar once it starts, it is on a constant plucking mode and never fails to create an atmosphere that one would expect when picnicking at the beach. Once the chorus comes, Olivia just goes, â??Stay just a little bit more, donâ??t let my heart turn soreâ?¦â? and with each phrase, there would be howlings in the background that just complement this track so much! Entering the second verse, the whole track seems to be venturing into a new zone and it sounds cuter than ever. During the bridge, violin is heard and joins the fun with The Do/Dø. Stay (Just A Little Bit More) just sounds good from start to finish!

On â??Unissasi Lauleletâ?, if iâ??m not mistaken, itâ??s a track sung in Finnish by Olivia. As Olivia sings on, it seems that there are some background vocals that sing simultaneously with Olivia. Further into the track, the music just get fuller and louder. Even the vocals got louder and slightly subside before ending. Quite funny when listening to a foreign language. But itâ??s still good.

â??Tammieâ? starts off with harmonica and some distant shout in the background. Once the right tempo is reached, a number of instruments just come in. Guitar, bass, drums and handclaps can be heard as Olivia sings. In each phrase of the verse, Olivia sings and drags the last word until she reaches a part where she loops, â??Oh i know you wonâ??tâ?¦â? The bass in this track is very groovy and some might have it catchy as well. At some points, the word â??Tammieâ? can be heard in the background, shouted by a number of guys. Saxaphone can also be found here as the song draws to a close. Cool stuff by The Do/Dø!

â??Queen Dot Kongâ? features a heavy usage of synthesizers. It also has saxophone and trumpet at some parts of the track. After a few listens, this song sounds like a theme song for a cartoon show. Itâ??s very cute yet weird with those sudden change of music notes and tones. Even the vocals vary as well, sometimes itâ??s fast, sometimes itâ??s slow. Olivia also raps at times, which i find kind of cute to imagine her doing so. The Do/Dø are definitely loosing themselves here.

â??Codaâ? is an instrumental track and it continues from Queen Dot Kong. It sort of acts as the final part of the song and helps the song to end. The Do/Dø can be heard playing with the synthesizer and mixer here. A break for The Do/Dø perhaps.

â??Searching Goldâ? is the longest track on A Mouthful and it spins over 5 minutes long. It has some dark and evil elements to it as Olivia sings in a way that doesnâ??t reflect her usual voice that we first heard. Take it from the title, everyone has himself or herself on mind when it comes to gold and will do whatever it takes to get their hands on gold. Maybe itâ??s one of the clues that we have that might helps us explain Oliviaâ??s voice here. The music in Searching Gold is pretty flat here and i like the ending lyrics that goes, â??As the horizon cleared, we let go of our hands, each one hurried to be the first where gold flows out, oh silent rejoicing when one of us stumbled, oh silent rejoicing when one of us failedâ?¦â? Sort of sarcastic by The Do/Dø here!

â??When Was I Last Home?â? is a slow track that has piano as its main instrument. Olivia just sings with her heart and let it taken away by the music. This time around, Olivia is proving how versatile she is by showcasing her beautiful voice on this somewhat sad track. Deeper into the track, there are some background vocals and violin also can be heard helping Olivia out. The Do/Dø are showing an emotional side of them. Great effort anyway!

â??Travel Lightâ? starts off with some lazy and draggy vocals by Olivia. Even the music sounds the same here, it just feels lazily good. However when it comes to the chorus, Olivia sounds lighter in her voice and goes, â??Lately Iâ??ve been walking away, floating like a song in the airâ?¦ Lately, Iâ??ve been trailing away, Iâ??ve been walking my wayâ?¦â? And when back into the verse, everything is back to what we first heard in the first verse. Another slow track here, which i think The Do/Dø are not that good at doing this. The Do/Dø are way much better when doing a fast track. Theyâ??re born to do that!

â??Ahaâ? definitely brings the tempo back here. Once the music starts, i know this song is going to rev up the album again. As Olivia sings, â??It came up on a day I was having a nap, it came up on a day I was catching the gnats, it was a trapâ?¦. Aha, Aha, Ahaâ?¦.â? You can hear a group of guys in the background helping Olivia out. Slowly when it gets to the chorus, the guitar sounds like a plucking from a James Bond theme. The bass throughout this track is outstanding as well, it just has the groove to liven up the track. The bridge also has its moment, where a group of female vocals can be heard belting it out with Olivia. The bottomline is that Olivia is back with her angelic vocals! Love it!

â??In My Boxâ? is an instrumental track that has a steady beginning before picking up the tempo and hitting it high as the song draws to an end. It sounds like an African-influenced music at first and then when the bass line comes in, it just gets groovy. Olivia is not calling it a day yet as she also contributes a bit with her voice. She sort of yells here though. Pretty cool ending by The Do/Dø!

Cheers!

Cuisinart CSB-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender – What Do Others Think?

My hand blender is the most trusted appliance in my kitchen. I can tell you, I need a good strong one and it has to be easy to clean. So that is why I first start looking at the Cuisinart CSB-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender. I am very glad I did! It is a very good little machine. Letâ??s have a look at what other are saying so that you do not have to take my word for it.

1. It is easy to clean:

For C. Scagliola one of the very important characteristics of the Cuisinart CSB-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender is that the blade assembly can be washed in the dishwasher and that the shaft is stainless steel and does not stain like the plastic one.

2. It is strong:

C. Scagliola goes on to say that it is a strong hand blender. You can blend really chunky soups with it with ease. The shaft is long enough so you can blend in pots, pitchers and bowls, making less dishes to wash afterward. For a lazy bones like me that is very important.

P. Kothari “mixerman” says it is a solid, smooth blending and easy to clean hand blender.

3. It fits your hand perfectly:

Reading through all the comments it became clear to me that people like the hand blender because it also fits your hand perfectly. This makes for ease of blending. If have to mention though that there are people who says it is a little difficult to handle when it hits something solid. I have not had that problem yet, but I mention it to be fair to all.

As hand blenders go, I think we all have to accept that there are limits to what we can expect. You are blending soups, sauces and more in the pot you made it. This is so convenient, but you have to realize you are not going to get the same protection against splashes etc. that you are going to get with a mixer blender with a jug.

If you want to avoid all risk of ever having a splash, a hand blender is not for you. Me, I cannot go without mine. It is used for almost everything, I even make homemade mayonnaise with it.

So, I think you should have a look at the Cuisinart CSB-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender and make up your own mind.
