Do I have to slice vegetables and fruits before juicing?

Yes, cutting your fruits and vegetables into smaller, 2 inch pieces helps to optimize yield and reduce pulp.

  • Vegetables. We recommend preparing your vegetables by cutting them into a size such that the pieces will fall through the feeder chute without needing to be pushed down. Chop carrots into half-inch discs and all other root vegetables such as beetroot to a similar size.
  • Fruits. Ensure you cut pieces into a size that will easily drop down the feeder chute. Remove skins from citrus fruits. If the Hurom becomes clogged then this can be remedied by feeding a different textured fruit or vegetable through.
  • Leafy Greens. Roll leaves into cigar shaped parcels and then fold them in half, ensuring that the size is not too big for the feeder chute. Wet leaves will not pass through the juicer as well as drier leaves so when washing produce, pat it dry with a kitchen towel before inserting into the Hurom.
