5 Cold Press Juice-Style Recipes for the PC-2105: Minimize Foam, Maximize Nutrients
Share
Cold-pressed juice (slow-pressed juice) is often thought to require a dedicated slow juicer, but with a little ingenuity, you can make highly nutritious cold-pressed-style juice with the Happilaff PC-2105. The key is to minimize heat and oxidation through "short-time blending + straining." Let's enjoy highly nutritious juice more easily than with a dedicated machine.

See DetailsFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q1. Is there a difference in nutritional value between juice made with PC-2105 and juice made with a slow juicer?
- Slow juicers minimize oxidation through slow pressing, so theoretically, they produce higher nutritional value. However, if you blend with PC-2105 for a short time (15-20 seconds) and drink immediately, the difference in nutritional value is not significantly large for practical purposes. The PC-2105 may even be superior in terms of retaining dietary fiber.
- Q2. Where can I buy gauze for straining?
- You can purchase it at pharmacies, 100-yen shops, Amazon, Rakuten, etc. Dedicated nut milk bags (nylon) are reusable and economical. The fineness of the mesh determines the degree of straining. Coarser gauze leaves more dietary fiber, while finer nut milk bags produce clearer juice.
- Q3. Is it time-consuming to make cold-pressed style juice every day?
- The straining process adds 5-10 minutes compared to regular smoothies. Tips for saving time include: ① Cutting ingredients the night before and storing them in the refrigerator, ② Setting up the gauze in a bowl beforehand, and ③ Using the PC-2105 bottle directly as a storage container.
