This little guy has changed our lives.

The Breville Juice Fountain Crush is what is known as a Cold Press Juicer (a.k.a. Masticating Juicer). These newer juicers extract juice by first crushing and then pressing fruit and vegetables for the highest juice yield. Because they don’t produce heat, they keep more of the fresh ingredients’ nutrients intact.

It’s not an inexpensive machine but, when you compare it to the expense of purchasing over-the-counter juices from Blue Print or Organic Avenue, it will take only a few weeks before you have paid yourself back.  And, you can be creative, concocting your own blends that meet your own demanding standards!  Lots of ginger for me but not much lemon.  Green apples for Rebecca with parsley and kale.  And Jeremy has become the expert, rushing home from work to buy bags of veggies and fruits.  He then becomes Mr. Juicer himself and, in the morning, does his juice delivery rounds for family and friends in the neighborhood.

So much fun.
