Expert tips
- Always clean your juicer right away! The sooner you clean it the shorter time you will need to do it!
- You can save some of the pulp and add it back to the juice, if you wish.
- Homemade juices lose some of their nutrients when exposed to light, time, heat or air. That is why it is always best to drink them as soon as possible. It can also depend on the type of juicer you have.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to peel beetroot before juicing?
