Making kiwi juice
First of all, you need to prepare the fruit for squeezing. Typically, kiwifruit are peeled before juicing. If you want, you can leave the bowl on and just brush off the hairs. In this way, no vitamins are lost and the proportion of fiber is increased. If the kiwi is pressed with the skin on, it is essential to pay attention to organic quality.
Juice with the juicer
If you have to move quickly in the morning, kiwifruit can be squeezed quickly in the juicer. It is important that the fruits are not too soft. Peel your kiwi and cut them into small pieces. Then put the fruit in the filling shaft of the juicer.
With the juicer, also called slow juicer, the juice is squeezed out by means of a rotating screw or a pressure plate.
The squeezing is done slowly and gently. As a result, the vitamins and nutrients in the kiwi are almost completely preserved. Fibers and seeds do not get into the juice, so it is easy to digest.
It is best to always drink kiwi juice from the juicer immediately. However, it can be kept in the refrigerator for some time. Here it stays fresh and appetizing.
Extract juice with the centrifuge
The centrifugal juicer is also suitable for cold juicing kiwifruit. The centrifuge chops the peeled fruit with a grater. Spinning at high speed separates the juice and pomace into different containers.
Nevertheless, fibers remain in the juice, which get the digestion going.
In addition, a lot of oxygen is swirled into the juice with the centrifuge. A thick layer of foam is therefore deposited on the juice.
