The two primary types of juicers on the market are the masticating juicer and centrifugal juicer. The masticating juicer is also known as a cold press juicer. The masticating juicer is known for it’s better performance because it spins at a slower rate. This effect extracts more nutrients than the centrifugal juicers because the slower rotation keeps temperatures of the produce lower. The theory is that this can break down enzymes and possibly result in less nutrients.

The masticating juicer tends to be more expensive and are for individuals who are concerned about getting the optimum nutrients from their juicing. Cold-press juicers tend to be quieter and many also can be used as a food processor. It must also be noted that the masticating juicer tends to take longer to juice. This is due to the fact that the produce must be chopped into small pieced and placed into the opening of the juicer. This can be a little time consuming, but the quality of the juice will be much better.
