I would like to know what the difference between a juicer, blender, and food processor is?.
Also can anyone tell me which is the best to buy if i want to thro in a whole apple or orange and drink the juice including the plup.
Any product recomendation?
The only real reason to get a juicer is for carrot and celery - maybe some others, where you really want the juice without the pulp. I make smoothies in the blender and just throw in whole, seedless fruit. Pineapple, especially. My wife and I can drink a whole pineapple in a couple of hours. I have a citrus juicer attachment for the Kitchen Aide. Food processors are for slicing food, like chopping up two pounds of veggies for soup, and also for grating anything - cheese, potatoes. I only use mine for bigger jobs, because of the cleaning. Nothing like a sharp knife, sometimes.
To put it simply
Juicer - extracts only the juice of the fruit/veggie.
There are three main types of juicer: centrifugal juicers use blades and a sieve to separate juice from pulp, masticating juicers "chew" fruit to a pulp before squeezing out the juice, and triturating juicers have twin gears to first crush fruit and then press it.
Blender - blends together whatever you put into it.
Food processor - pretty much the same as blenders but they have interchangeable blade attachments which may allow it to perform more tasks than a blender.
A juicer takes extracts the juice and discards everything else.
Blender and food processors operate the same, except, food processors have the capability of chopping and slicing, where as the the blender can not do that.
Some high end food processors are capable of doing all, except for true juicing.
I recommend kitchen aid cuisine art.
I also would like to say that i am not a fan of juicers. They are generally really big and a pain to use and clean, and you lose all of the fiber content from the fruit or vegetable, you only get the water based nutrients.
The ninja has a good all in one as well
They're probably something you'll use twice, find a pain to clean and never use again. Waste of money. Buy the fresh juice instead, works out cheaper in the long run.
