Best Low Cost Compact Vertical Cold Press Juicer
Alight this is John Kohler with discountjuicers.com
today we have another exciting episode before
I’m so excited for this episode today because
I get to introduce you guys to a brand new
juicer that is now available on the market
for the first time ever and for those of you
guys have been watching some of videos for
a long time we’re just finding my videos
for the first time I’ve made over 500 videos
comparing different juicers blenders dehydrators
vacuum blenders and soon freeze driers so
you guys get more fruits and vegetables in
you Fruits and vegetables I will say are the
most important foods in the entire planet
especially the leafy green vegetables that
unfortunately most people are not eating And
generally I’d like to sell the higher-end
juicers the ones that are you’re going have
for your life literally because my life was
saved in part due to juicing and making other
dietary changes to eat more of these amazing
fruits and vegetables in my diet So I generally
stick to sell on the high end brand that’s
why you generally don’t see too many inexpensive
juicers that we sell at discountjuicers.com
because I haven’t found any ones to be really
solid I mean yeah you could get some imported
you know what I would consider knockoff juicers
from China that may have a short 90 day or
maybe lone year warranty if you’re lucky
and hopefully it’s from a company that’s
solid that’s not going to be out of business
in the next year because a lot of these companies
just start importing juicers or importing
any kind of widgets just to make a buck and
then they disappear and then you can get a
warranty support and get no juicer and basically
I call them throwaway juicers so you know
for me juicing is a lifestyle choice it’s
not about just this thing I’m going to do
now to lose weight it’s something that I
want to do for the rest of my life and I do
do and have done for over 23 years now on
a regular and consistent basis and juicing
every day literally that I’m traveling in
my life and even when I’m traveling I take
a juicer with me and actually this giving
my brand-new travel juicer but we’ll talk
about more about that in a second but anyway
so we focus on high-end machines I don’t
encourage you guys you know if you guys don’t
have a lot of money I want to encourage you
guys to save up some money get a high end
machine there’s no substitute to a good
quality juicer oh my God a good quality juicer
could basically save you from getting great
hair prematurely because it’s just going
to work a lot better it’s going to get a
higher yield and it’s just going to be more
trouble-free if you are looking for a good
vertical juicer that’s high-end check the
link down below the video I made actually
last year a best vertical slow juicer for
2017 there have been no major advances and
this year 2018 so that video that I made then
still holds true those are the best three
machines and all of those machines are from
South Korea South Korea makes basically the
best vertical single auger machines that’s
where the technology of the vertical single
auger was invented and so they make some of
the best and basically after Korea South Korea
came out with them basically as some people
in factories in China saw how they made basically
just try to copy it but they probably didn’t
do all the R&D that it takes you know to get
a good machine and I found inexpensive Chinese
juicers generally they can you know leave
a lot of pulp in the juice they have problems
with jam and clogging give it to get up a
problem with like you you know juice getting
into the seals blowing out the seals blowing
out the motor prematurely and basically have
a disposable juicer that you can’t get parts
for in addition some of the cheap inexpensive
machines may be using BPA plastics you know
in the construction the machine and just they’re
just not so durable and of course they have
a short warranty but of course they are a
cheap price and out of course rather you guys
get some kind of juicer and be able to start
juicing then to not you know something is
always being able to juice than not juice
is always better but now I’m glad to say
here at discountjuicers.com we’re picking
up our first low cost vertical single auger
juicer with a reputable company to stand behind
it actually this is actually called the shine
vertical juicer and the shine vertical juicer
it’s a whole new line of products that Tribest
is now going to be putting out for the like
Millennial customer that may not have a lot
of money but he knows his health or she knows
that her health is important to them they
want to get the benefits but they’re not
really fully invested to like set down and
invest like you know like two times or even
three times the cost of this machine into
like a higher-end machine I would of course
encourage you guys to invest in a higher end
machine so you’re just going to buy once
something once the first time and get it right
and it’s literally some of the machines
have a 10-year or longer warranty so you’re
it’s guaranteed it’s going to last but
nonetheless Tribest who’s now been in business
over 25 maybe even 30 years now you know they’re
coming out with this machine has a little
cost alternative now should you buy this machine
instead of the Slowstar that Tribest came
out with five years ago now you know I’ll
have an upcoming episode where I compare the
Shine Vertical Slow Juicer against the Slowstar
soon enough so you can see the exact specific
differences and what I will say is this I
will say that it’s always best to buy the
higher end machine now if you could afford
it if you could put it on your credit card
pay it off later of course if you can’t
afford it and you want to get a good solid
machine never it’s going to last a good
long while then you’re going to want to
get this machine that I’m sharing with you
guys today because it’s different than a
lot of other inexpensive machines out there
so the Shine Vertical Juicer it’s the SJV107
I like it for a lot of reasons and once again
Travis has been selling the Slowstar Vertical
Juicer for five years so you know they have
not come out with a low cost version of that
until now five years later they’ve seen
all the challenges that happen with their
higher-end machine right they’ve seen you
know some of the knockoff juicers that are
out there they’ve seen some of the problems
they’ve had the ones made in china so what
they did they had a factory over in China
make a good low-cost machine but incorporating
some of the improvements and upgrades so that
you guys don’t have a problem when you get
this lower cost lower-end machine that being
said don’t expect high-end machine results
with a lower-end juicer It’s simply not
going to happen anyway so let’s go ahead
and turn this box around and show you guys
actually on the box here it says low speed
yet powerful juicing solo speed 40RPM with
a powerful tuner watt motor for frustration
free juicing without jamming and they’ve
done some very special things I haven’t
see another Chinese machine before to encourage
that from happening compact lip print this
is the smallest vertical small vertical slow
juicer I’ve seen actually so whether you
live in an apartment in New York City or you’re
right in a room and you only have a little
table in your room to juice this is the juicer
that takes up the least amount of space on
a table that I’ve ever seen in addition
you know the machine itself weighs about six
and a half pounds so this is now my travel
juicer it’s going to go in with me when
I take carry-on bags you know on trips so
I’ll have a juicer with me super small super
lightweight I could not travel with the juicer
really easily now let’s see healthier juice
comes with 100% BPA free housing auger and
screen and make juicing healthier and safer
so that’s really important BPA free juice
cap so unlike many slow juicers actually has
a juice cap to you know do mixing inside the
juicer actually I don’t recommend you guys
using the juice cap for that I recommend using
the juice cap just to prevent drips when you
do leave the juice inside the juicer to mix
it can reduce your yield and then it says
a stainless steel body so I mean this has
a nice upscale look even though it’s actually
a more affordable cost anyway so without further
ado let’s go ahead and open this guy up
and bring out all the parts and show it to
you guys so the heart of the machine is the
main juicing components here it’s nice dark
smoke black and that does not sound like polycarbonate
to me so that’s really good next here we’ve
got the motor this motor body is you know
nice and small so look at it I mean this is
probably one of the smallest juicers I’ve
seen out there but yet it’s powerful it
has a full 200 watt motor so really cool and
then let’s see inside the box also you have
your collection cups are these collection
couplets smaller than most collection cups
that come with vertical slow juicers that’s
alright because normally I just use a big
you know Anchor Hocking 8 cup glass collection
cup anyways in addition you have a cleaning
brush cleaning brushes are essential to get
the screen clean after juicing I do encourage
you guys to clean the screen right after and
don’t let it sit around for the pulp to
cake on or build up or get stuck in the screen
and finally you get a actually this is interesting
you get an apple slicer so this is actually
if you’re juicing apples you basically slice
the apples with this slicer and you can just
drop the pieces inside the machine quickly
and easily and then of course you have your
instruction manual inside here and that’s
pretty much what’s in the box so you know
first thing I want to go over the manual her
so my present time Tribest has a manual for
the juicer here and it’s pretty basic I
mean it’s just a couple pages general safety
regulations I mean you should read the manual
before use this is probably one of the easiest
juicers to use and assemble they have a list
of all parts how to assemble it I’ll show
you guys how to do that super simple super
easy now the interesting thing to me about
this machine it says continuous working time
up to 10 minutes so what’s that mean that
means you should only run this machine for
10 minutes at a time to juice you shouldn’t
you know make 5 gallons of juice with this
machine in one fell swoop right 10 minutes
you know maybe you could make maybe a quart
of juice at a time and then you’re going
to want to shut the machine off let it rest
for 10 minutes before you get back to juicing
again right this is one of the disadvantages
of course of buying an inexpensive machine
and you’ll find that most inexpensive machines
don’t have a super you know powerful or
big motor you know you know don’t have a
long usage time even the bigger brother to
this the Slowstar juicer by Tribest that has
a 30-minute use time for continuous use time
in addition there’s an on and off switch
and reverse it actually is covered so I kind
of like that so your juice won’t get in
there I think that’s pretty much it oh and
then at the end it says before using so I
want you guys want to make sure you read this
part do not crush ice do not use hard or dried
food cut fibrous produces into 1-inch pieces
something I mean I am glad they actually put
in this instruction manual this should be
in an instruction manual of every vertical
juicer um there are specific techniques you
guys need to use to get the best results when
using a vertical slow juicer I will put a
link down below that I want to encourage you
guys to watch called “Juice like a Pro”
any vertical slow juicer including the Shine
juicer here so it says cut fibrous produce
in to 1-inch pieces actually I would say cut
fibrous produce which includes things like
celery even if you’re juicing like broccoli
stems kale collard greens Swiss chard things
like that even bok choy I would cut them into
eight inch to quarter inch pieces for best
results I will demonstrate that in a little
bit one inch pieces maybe you know small enough
but the smaller the better Uh let’s see
here feed juicer slowly very important and
then they have some troubleshooting tips at
the end just some really basic information
in the instruction manual um the other thing
I’m going to say that I know Tribest is
currently working on a recipe booklet actually
that will be coming out with the Shine juicer
and I even hear maybe it’s going to have
some of my favorite recipes in there as well
so if you do get a Shine you will also at
some point in the future beginning a recipe
book with it and um that’s going to be really
cool so it would help get you started on juicing
some good healthy recipes that can help you
improve your health alright with that let’s
go ahead and show you guys how easy this is
to assemble and all the different parts so
you have 2 bins here the one with the handle
is probably for the juice caps you could pour
the juice out and this one here is for catching
the pulp you then have the main body of the
juicer we’re going to go ahead and take
it apart so here you have the pusher and actually
I recommend actually that you guys do not
use the pusher when using any vertical slow
juicer the pusher should only be used to dislodge
produce that is literally stuck in the feed
chute and if you do push each produce in like
you have to do on some triple ejection juicers
or the Champion Juicer right You will more
than likely be pushing things too fast into
this machine which will cause number one excess
pulp in your juice and number two cause this
machine to jam up basically there’s a lock
and unlock symbol on here so right now it’s
this white dot is to the lock so we’re just
going to turn that to the unlock and we can
take this top off this feed chute top is pretty
much like any other feature top the interesting
thing is if you look at the bottom of this
beetroot top the hole is actually quite large
but if you look at the top it’s actually
a bit you know smaller so they reduced the
size I know this is to be compliant in some
countries they need to have a smaller feed
chute size that being said you know if it
was me and I was buying this machine it probably
would’ve worked to see if you need to get
rolling to make this bigger and then let’s
see the next parts are pull this out you have
the auger so the auger I mean this looks like
and auger much like on a first generation
vertical single auger machine is just basically
comes in a small like kind of cutting blade
but it’s not really cutting it’s not that
sharp then basically the produce goes in here
basically gets crushed and squeezed and the
juice comes out of it so nothing super special
here just a smaller version for a smaller
more compact juicer I do like that underneath
they have a basically a pocket recess in here
that acts as actually a pulp relief so pulp
should build up under the auger unlike other
brands that still don’t have this it basically
will lift the auger up which will then make
the machine hard to disassemble so that’s
one important reason to properly cut rotate
and slow down when juicing in one of these
machines once again I will encourage you guys
to watch the video down below and linked in
the description “Juice like a Pro” [inaudible]
vertical slow juicer if you do all my tips
in there you will prevent that from occurring
for the most part so the auger looks pretty
good nice that stainless steel shaft on here
and the next part we have is the juicing screen
so literally this is the heart of any juicer
and this pretty much looks like any other
juicing screen on any vertical slow juicer
right the stainless steel screen here looks
like a nice smaller hole size so hopefully
it shouldn’t let too much pulp in your juice
unlike other inexpensive Chinese juicers it
doesn’t really have a hole on the bottom
that will actually let additional pulp in
your juice and another thing that you see
is missing on this machine that are on the
higher end machines is actually an automatic
wiping blade system on one hand I do like
the automatic wiping blade system that goes
around and literally squeegees your screen
and you know keeps the juice kind of flowing
out at all so it keeps a little bit cleaner
on the other hand you know that part is an
extra part to clean so they basically just
deleted it on this and when juicing small
amounts like this machine is designed for
you know it should be fine I mean if you guys
are doing the juice fast and then you need
tons of juice for the next thirty days right
this is not the machine I encourage you guys
to get this is the machine to get if you guys
want to have like an 8 ounce 16 ounce juice
everyday just in the morning before you go
to work or even before your coffee or even
better yet instead of your coffee to get healthier
this is totally the machine to use for number
one it’s stainless steel to look good on
your counter but number two to me fast and
easy for you guys to use so you guys think
benefit and get some of the benefits out of
the fruits and vegetables in your life alright
so looking at the screen further this screen
has basically two locking points where it
kind of locks in to hold it down which is
actually number one there’s a little tab
here that holds it in place and number two
where the pulp comes out it kind of holds
it in place at that point so I mean that’s
decent for this you know most higher end machines
might have five different locking points or
three different locking points or more to
make it more stable some of the original juicers
I found that didn’t have enough locking
points like they would get a little motion
and part of the screen would actually rub
in the housing I did fit this in there and
it seems pretty tight so I don’t think that’s
going to be an issue another thing that’s
different about this is that in this machine
unlike some of the higher end machines you
know all the basically the grinding parts
of the parts that are going to basically grind
up the fruit are plastic so on some of the
higher machines they have some plastic grinding
blades and some are basically raised up stainless
steel from the screen in this one it’s basically
just all plastic is that a big problem in
addition there’s an on and off switch and
reverse it actually is covered so I kind of
like ou now I don’t necessarily think so
because a lot of them on many juicers are
plastic but um I prefer to have some that
are more stainless steel myself these over
time may wear out but the other thing that’s
really nice about this machines unlike other
machines that are made in China is that this
machine has a full three-year warranty backed
up by Tribest who’s been in business for
over 25 years and all the customers I’ve
ever sent to Tribest based on feedback I’ve
gotten have gotten great service from Tribest
so I expect that from you guys too now the
other thing about this screen that’s different
than another Chinese made machines that I’ve
ever seen is you know where the pulp comes
out the pulp has to actually get ground up
inside here the juice comes out the front
of the screen or the side of the screen the
pulp is all ejected out of this little small
hole right there you guys see that little
small hole there so the cool thing about this
machine is that actually they didn’t reduce
the size of the machine some inexpensive Chinese
machines even some more expensive Chinese
machines that have recently been tested have
a small hole with like kind of blockages that
aren’t like a nice free-flowing design this
could cause major issues with blockages and
basically cause you guys headaches in the
future this is actually nice and large and
I don’t see any kind of major blockages
occurring if you’re using it properly so
this I really like a lot so yeah a well-designed
screen for a lower-cost machine finally we
have the juicing bowl and you know I got to
say I personally don’t like that this juicing
bowl is like this dark smoke color I would
like to have it a little more clear so I could
kind of see what’s going on on the inside
but this kind of makes it look more cool [laugh]
I’m more about functionality than coolness
if you guys have noticed but other than that
functionality wise this thing’s kick some
royal you know what alright now this is really
a well-designed piece for being on such a
low-end machine right they’ve done many
things right on this unit alright number one
they have a nice uh uh nice juice spout here
this is nice and large bigger than on most
machines you need a juice feature this large
no you don’t but the thing is when it’s
this large it makes it easier to clean out
some of the features and some of the machines
are so hard you can’t even get their cleaning
brush in there but this one is so large you
usually can another thing they’ve done a
lot unlike many Chinese machines I’ve seen
is the spout cap on many Chinese machines
the spout cap has a screw right in the middle
of the spout cap that holds the rubber on
the spout cap unfortunately that that screw
at the same time is not stainless steel so
what does that mean when you have the spout
cap closed juice gets on the spout cap on
that little screw that’s in the middle it’s
going to rust over time that’s not cool
man so I’m glad they’ve you know tried
this nose better to do that they put one solid
piece on there on their spout cap that has
a nice solid closure okay number two what
I like that actually on the bottom of this
it’s pretty much all flat there’s no major
nooks and crannies it’s going to be hard
to clean the pulp will easily flow out of
here if you put it under your sink blasts
off hot water brush it around a little dish
brush it’s going to clean out with no problems
whatsoever so I like that a lot no gear in
there either to break because there is no
wiping blade right number three I’d like
actually that there’s a nice handle so you
could grip this many you know um juicers don’t
have a handle so that you could grip this
when you’re cleaning it easily you just
kind of got to grab it right another thing
I like about this is that it has that nice
large pulp port right this makes it easy to
clean out I could literally get my pinkie
in there my pinkie’s a little bit too large
to basically push all the pulp out so this
is amazing a lot easier to clean than other
inexpensive juicers I’ve seen in addition
they’ve done something right on this port
here right once again they basically cut off
the top of this port you guys can see that
where the pulp comes out so once again it
makes it easier to clean plus this port is
nice and tall wide and fat so it is easily
going to be accessible for cleaning which
is really nice because some of the them are
not oh in addition they have a little flap
on the bottom I see it kind of blends in I
don’t know if you guys can see that if I
was I probably would’ve made it a different
color but it’s black it’s this little
silicone flap the silicone flap is a you know
nice material here actually I just pulled
it off there so you guys can see it we’re
going to go ahead and put it back on there
goes on and off easily for easy cleaning and
you know when you’re cleaning it you want
to pull this flap out and when you’re juicing
you always want to have this flap in what
this flap does this flap is the gatekeeper
right it keeps the pulp inside the machine
and when it’s fully dry then it lets it
out if it’s still kind of wet it stays inside
the machine so you always want that in and
acts as a little bit of a back pressure so
I like that it’s easy to come out easy to
put in and then the other major improvement
that I haven’t seen on other machines is
actually Tribest really designed this little
center um um gasket or bushing in here really
well a lot of the inexpensive machines I’ve
seen they basically will leak and that will
leak you um you know juice down through the
motor shaft which will then get into the motor
housing which will then basically ruin your
motor even some of the high-end juicers happen
to me that you know the motor shaft actually
leaked and actually did ruin some of the gears
in one of my high-end juicers that will remain
nameless but Tribest really worked on improving
this and actually I like that it’s actually
recessed so it’s nice and clean so it’s
not going to tend to collect all the junk
and crud underneath there of course it is
important not to feed things too fast and
properly cut your produce and if you don’t
have ever have a backup situation the juice
and pulp should never get up that high in
the bowl to become a problem but if it should
and you’re not juicing properly you know
this will have the least likely chance of
basically getting through and leaking making
cleanup harder and shorting the life of your
juicer so I mean literally this has like three
rings on here or three levels of protection
for sealing which is actually quite impressive
to me I mean this is just basically that well-designed
low-end machine alright so assembly on this
guys is super simple super easy you’re going
to take this handle there’s a lock and unlock
and on the back here there’s a little built-in
safety switch the safety switch is not engaged
the machine will not come on I do like this
machine actually locks into place so there’s
little tabs here on the bottom that you need
to line up with this so basically you’re
going to put it like this we’re kind of
like off center I don’t know if you guys
can see that we’re kind of offset then we’re
going to turn this into place so that this
whole back column lines up and you guys see
that right it’s on line and drop it in and
we line it up and then we can pick up the
whole machine with a handle that’s super
nice super easy then we’re going to go ahead
and take our juicing screen now the one caveat
on this is that most juicing screens and bowls
have like some kind of dots to line up I haven’t
been able to find any on this so what you
need to do is you need to take a look at this
probably this little tab here this little
tab here that actually kind of goes down you
can see its’s ticking out there goes towards
the back and there’s a little hole that
it goes into so you’re going to take this
tab and drop it straight back in so it goes
down and then this screen will basically seethe
in there and when I try to move it it’s
pretty solid in there next we’re going to
go ahead and take the auger the auger just
basically drops right down in the center there
and normally when I put it in I kind of turn
it a little bit to make it go down to the
gasket and we’re going to fully make sure
that it’s fully seethed this is super easy
assembly finally we’re going to go ahead
and take the top and there’s a little dot
on the top of this and on the back of this
there’s a padlock that’s open and a closed
padlock so we’re going to go ahead and take
that white dot and put it to the open padlock
and then close it to the closed padlock once
you do that the machines is fully assembled
and you should be all ready to juice if it
is not fully assembled once again the machine
will not turn on let’s see finally you have
a pusher that you should not be using now
the cool thing I discovered about the pusher
right don’t tell anybody this is all cries
and babbles (laugh) in there so the pusher
here is a two piece pusher which is good and
bad right I was pulling out a box and I basically
by accident popped the top off but that’s
a good thing right check it out inside you
have like a hiding place you could like put
like extra stacks of cash maybe even some
jewelry or diamonds or whatever you can get
in there and then you could put this top on
and make sure you like pattern all the way
so it doesn’t like you can’t hear things
move around in there and you could like hide
stuff in there from your roommates or your
wife or your husband it’s hidden in your
in your juicing pusher secret storage place
including free memory so that’s pretty much
the juicer oh I wait I wanted to go over so
three year warranty less than $150 amazing
and although this may look like some other
inexpensive machines made in China right Tribest
has gone through and made some significant
improvements to this machine that you’re
not going to find in other Chinese machine
alright number one it has a an improved seal
I did talk about that earlier that’s where
the shaft goes through the motor they’ve
seen this be a problem they’ve in my opinion
even over designed this so that isn’t a
problem with this machine as it can be with
lower priced machines in addition on this
machine unlike other machines this has a built-in
cooling fan to help keep the juicer cool cooling
fans are not expensive to add into a machines
but unfortunately many Chinese companies are
just trying to cut costs and delete the cooling
fan when they’re making ten thousand machines
could save them ten thousand dollars or something
crazy so putting a cooling fan in there assures
that you’re going to have a longer-lasting
juicer because the motor is going to stay
cooler and it’s not going to overheat and
so you’re going to have basically an extended
service life so that’s in here as well in
addition they’ve increased the motor toque
on this machine despite it just being a 200
watt motor it has increased torque over some
over the other machines out there and torque
is actually even more important to me than
just the horsepower rating because literally
when you’re putting a whole carrot in there
it needs to have enough torque to snap that
carrot to literally squeeze out all the juice
so they do have an improved torque and the
other thing is I actually have seen pictures
of is that many inexpensive juicers may have
skipped on reduction gears right and if you
guys are into physics or whatever all that
stuff is you guys know mechanics and engineering
you guys know how a reduction gears work right
it’s like using a pulley system to make
something easier to pull up right on a basic
level so for us neophytes basically an extra
reduction gear makes things um makes the torque
even more efficient more stronger I would
say and Tribest has made these gears out of
metal instead of plastic as they are on many
inexpensive machines so although you are paying
a less expensive price you’re going to get
a higher end you know less expensive juicer
with a three-year warranty backed up by Tribest
so this is totally the way you guys should
go when you guys want to buy an inexpensive
machine especially one with a small footprint
light once again six and a half pounds I could
carry this pick it up with one finger and
get tiny pick that up with one finger (laugh)
easy to travel with anyways you know if this
juicer sounds all good on paper and honestly
I’ve never used this juicer yet I’m using
it right now for you guys we’re going to
go ahead and juice three different things
pretty common produce items that you guys
may be wanting to juice I’m going to be
juicing up organic apples organic carrots
and of course the organic celery do not forget
they’re going to accelerate if you’re
on especially this medical medium program
you want the juicer that’s going to do celery
well vertical slow juicers are my favorite
juicer to juice celery so we’ll be right
back at you and juice all those items in the
Shine Vertical Juicer alright so now I’m
all set up and I’m ready to juice in the
Shine Vertical Juicer really looking forward
to this and see how this machine works first
I want to go ahead and turn it on without
running anything so you guys get to hear how
loud it is (machine on) so to me actually
that’s a pretty soft sound it doesn’t
sound too loud it runs about 40 RPMs or revolutions
per minute the first thing we’ll be juicing
are apples now this does not have a wide feed
chute so we are going to have to cut the apples
so what I will be using is going to be their
included apple slicer so uh you know we’re
just going to go oh and the other thing is
you want to remove the stems from the apples
when juicing and just push this thing down
and look at that sliced the apple up into
little pieces and maybe just push this through
all the way let’s do this this is going
to work here pull these pieces of apples out
alright so I think what I’m going to do
to make it easier is we’re going to go ahead
and slice all these apples up and we’re
going to come back at you yeah when I got
all these apples sliced alright we’ve just
got that last apple sliced without issues
with this apple slicer now we’re going to
juice them so let’s uh oh I want to time
this for you guys so you guys can see how
long it takes to make one cup of juice in
the Shine Juicer here so I’m going to ahead
and get the stopwatch app out for you guys
stopwatch all set up we’re going to hit
the start button and turn this baby on so
you want to just take one piece of apple and
just drop it in the machine and let it process
and see and then put in another one I do like
that it actually has a nice tall spout so
you can actually put a nice large size glass
center there to catch the juice today I happen
to be putting a 16-ounce glass underneath
there I think that this would actually even
hold a mason jar underneath there which would
be kind of cool if you do hear some kind of
noise when it’s juicing that’s completely
normal so do not be alarmed as you guys can
see basically just putting one piece of apple
in at a time I started with approximately
two pounds of apples maybe a little bit more
maybe a little bit less let’s see what’s
going to happen I think these apples are going
in they are juicing no problem now I am juicing
the apple seeds but I did remove the apple
stems in my opinion you know juicing apple
seeds are not a problem they say contains
cyanide in there but um you know I believe
that there’s this thing called a laetrile
in there that it’s small amounts that maybe
even helpful for us of course do your own
research but I personally don’t have any
problems um drinking some seeds are putting
the apple seeds food through the machine personally
now I am probably feeding a little too fast
we want to make sure that each apple gets
processed each piece before we put in the
next one but this looks like it’s doing
an amazing job I got some nice apple juice
nice and brilliant in color I’d encourage
you guys also to uh if you’re juicing apples
like juice a little bit of lemon in there
and make it taste like lemonade but also it’ll
help prevent some of the oxidation this juice
this juice coming out looks like a nice fine
juice with a very little pulp in it so this
machine is doing excellent despite not having
any kind of wiping blade let’s check the
quality around the apple turns out actually
quite fine and actually quite impressed on
how well it is actually doing I was expecting
to use actually all two pounds of the apples
to get this last bowl but I don’t even think
I’m going to need to dot that so what that
tells me is that this machine is actually
quite efficient for what it is allow and actually
stuff I’m like I’m like super impressed
now the trick with apples is you want to select
hard and firm apples was the most important
thing right these are nice Galas that are
probably maybe fresh this season um if you
have soft old mealy apple that if you press
in they indent those are not good juicing
apples maybe they’re good for eating um
but not good for juicing Granny Apple Smith
apples generally juice the best if you do
have softer apples then any vertical slow
juicer or any slow juicer for that matter
they will tend to basically make more of an
apple sauced instead of an apple juice look
at that man I have a whole glass of apple
juice and all of these extra apples that I
did not even need to juice alright and so
our time it literally look it took like about
three minutes to juice those apples in the
Shine Juicer or to make one cup of juice so
that’s amazing right you could literally
take just a couple minutes in the morning
to make a whole glass of apple juice and cleaning
this machine is going to be a breeze that
will probably take me less than three minutes
to clean maybe even two and a half to do some
of the less parts once you’re done juicing
you’ll want to put that spout cap down and
now we have one delicious glass of apple juice
my mouth is watering I want to drink that
but I got to keep juicing for you guys next
we’re going to go ahead and we’re going
to go ahead and juice some celery normally
I wouldn’t encourage you guys after juicing
each item if you’re making a solid juice
of like one type to clean the machine generally
you wouldn’t juice all of one item unless
you’re actually on a medical medium program
or they want you to do straight celery you
would be mixing things so you could mix you
know carrot apple celery juice for example
and you want to put a little bit of chopped
up celery like I’ll show you in a little
bit of carrots and just keep repeating until
you’re done once again check the link down
below if you get a vertical slow juicer if
you want to watch the video like a pronated
vertical slow juicer I’ll go over all my
tips anyways next lest go ahead and juice
the celery and we’re going to time this
from the time it takes me to prepare the celery
cut it up and then juice it all so juicing
celery is super simple I do not recommend
you guys put whole stalks and even in the
instruction manual they say to cut it into
1-inch pieces that being said I’m going
to cut it into I don’t know eighth inch
pieces is the goal but most the time I hit
quarter-inch for even better so we’re going
to hit start button so I just got a knife
got the celery pre-washed and we’re going
to go down the line and just cut cut cut does
not take a lot of time guys just precut your
celery before you juice it it’s going to
work a lot better than just trying to cut
it in a hole but it’s going to make feeding
a breeze so literally it took me I don’t
know just seconds to do uh 30 seconds to chop
it turn this machine on open a spout cap and
we’re going to drop down piece a little
bit of celery at a time making sure to not
overload the machine as you guys can see we
got our celery juice coming out the first
little bits can be mixed with a little bit
of apple until that runs through the machine
but I think what we’re going to do for you
guys is speed up the process since it’s
just me be boring and eating celery head we’re
going to go ahead and play some music speed
this up for you guys and now we’ll be back
at you when I got a full cup uh and we’re
going to see how long it took right so we’re
pretty much done juicing celery and I gotta
say that this is like a dream to juice the
celery in the Shine Machine probably my one
negative thing I like on this machine that
they don’t have is I’d like to feed you
a bit smaller it’s a bit hard to get things
in a smaller hole and then the other thing
I’d like to see is I like to see a larger
funnel because I was trying to put things
in and sometimes things would drop out it’s
not a big major deal but I mean this is a
hundred dollar machine and I always expect
the most but look at this we made a whole
glass of celery and once again you know I
got too much extra celery and let’s see
how long it took and it stopped once again
took about three minutes to juice the celery
from me even having to cut the celery for
30 seconds and feed it through the juicer
for it finishing so literally about three
minutes for a glass of juice that’s amazingly
quick in my book and once again this is a
slow juicer you’re going to maximize the
nutrition over those high-speed ejection machines
it actually may be done in just 30 seconds
anyways I think the last thing I want to do
is we’re going to go ahead and juice some
carrots um carrots have a lot of different
texture now apples are really soft tough to
juice you know my friend Mike velocity what’s
up Mike if you’re watching this I mean he’s
so strong you know he didn’t like squeeze
an apple and squeeze the juice out of its
hands celery you could maybe do that but carrots
they’re super hard they can be super difficult
to juice so that’s why we’re going to
do those last and uh see how the Shine Juicer
could handle some carrots once again I want
to time this for you guys to see how long
it takes alright so I guess we’re all set
and ready to go the carrots won’t need cutting
so this is a really cool just hit start turn
this machine on and put a carrot in and uh
oh our carrot barely fits in there alright
fit it in there and now look putting the carrot
in there let’s see if it like auto feed
in there alright so it might need a little
bit of help kind of going in the first couple
of times until we get the diameter um small
around the carrot take it off took a couple
chunks alright we’re going to drop it in
and see if it auto feeds like other vertical
juicers alright so at that point it finally
is starting to auto feed suck it up in there
as you guys can see I’ve never once used
the pusher during this juicing episode and
if you want all optimal results if you take
the pusher try to cram it in there faster
then it’s not going to work like I shoed
you guys I have very specific techniques I
that I use to get the results I do oh and
I want to check out the pulp here over here
like I did check out the pulp in the celery
earlier and to me this pulp is like this ball
I mean yeah I could wring a little bit of
juice out of it but it’s actually quite
dry especially for a low cost machine right
this is super impressive to me this machine
how well it’s doing first it’s a literally
probably the best low cost machine that I’ve
actually ever experienced myself now we’ll
say on the carrot juice right I am seeing
the juicing screen maybe that’s why they
make the the housing there smoke I have seen
kind it kind of getting clogged with the carrot
pulp coming out this juice is going to probably
be a little bit more pulpy than some of the
other juices that I’ve made carrots generally
make a more pulpy juice celery generally doesn’t
make it too pulpy juice because all the fibers
are like in the strings and the apples if
you have a mealy apple then it’s going to
be a more more pulpy than not but so far so
good this is looking like it’s working quite
well I think to save you guys on time go ahead
and juice the rest this come back at you and
we got a full glass (music) alright last carrot
going into the machine this is a little bit
fatter on this one so we’re going to press
that down kind of makes it through the top
of the feed chute which what you’re getting
a bit smaller than the bottom at this point
now after doing like 16-ounce this carrot
juice oops my fault the dome is overflowing
cuz we filled up my pulp catch bin but the
other thing I’m noticing is that I do see
some pulp coming out with the carrot juice
basically what’s happening I’ll show you
guys is once I take it apart is that the screen
is now getting kind of uh you know clogged
up with some pulp and that actually pulp is
actually building its way to forcing its way
through the screen to make it in the juice
one of the things this machine does not come
with it’s a budget juicer is that it doesn’t
come with a sieve so I would encourage you
guys we want our pulp free juice to go out
and buy an additional sieve I find Asian markets
have those generally for pretty inexpensive
and you’re going to remove the pulp if you
want it I don’t think pulp is a major issue
it’s just kind of like a taste thing for
most good well anyways I’m yapping too much
because you might still see juicing the carrots
did take a little bit more time in the Shine
Juicer I’m going to say it took about five
minutes total but nonetheless two pounds of
carrots have us about 16 ounces of juice so
that’s about average um in general the vertical
single auger style and other single auger
juicers don’t get the highest yield on carrots
even you know a Centauri leg ejection is actually
more apt to getting a higher yield on hard
carrots than this style machine but with that
being said this juice is a lot more nutritious
than a high speed machine if you want to get
the highest extract on carrots and have high
quality juice then I would recommend one of
Tribest other juicers known as the Green Star
Pro that’s my favorite juicer but that’s
a high-end machine you know compared to this
low end that’s going to get a much higher
percentage of juice out the carrots and a
higher quality juice anyways um juicing carrots
no problem in the Shine Juicer there one nice
glass of carrots juice so there we go three
glasses of juice one Shine Juicer took about
three minutes three minutes about five minutes
so eleven minutes to make 48 ounces of juice
so if you had all your produce perhaps ready
to go in the machine I’m confident that
you can makes between 32 to 48 ounces in one
10 minute cycle which is how much how long
you should use this juicer for before you
let it you know you stop it let it rest for
about ten minutes before you start juicing
again so if you wanted to make a quart and
drink it turn it off clean it you know put
it away and then make another quart later
hey great you could totally do that but you
don’t want to make more than maybe like
a quart at a time with this machine like continuous
the motor will get warm so after using it
the machine you know three minutes on five
minutes off I mean the base of the machines
like barely warm I could feel it it’s not
like super-hot like some Chinese machines
I’ve used but it is warms o you will want
to let it cool off now my taste buds and mouth
is watering I’ve been wanting to try this
juice ever since I made it first round go
ahead and try the straight apple mmmm wow
it’s rare that I do straight apple because
normally it’s mixed into stuff but I gotta
say that is a good apple juice I’m not feeling
any kind of major pulp in there or anything
next let’s go ahead and try that fresh celery
juice I just made I had celery juice already
for morning this morning 30 ounces but this
looks even better because it wasn’t stored
in my fridge under vacuum mmm that’s definitely
a good celery juice now with a celery unlike
the apple I do taste some small celery particulate
you could filter this out I don’t think
it is disagreeable to me by any means I probably
got to try that carrot juice oh my God I love
carrot juice mmm to me that does definitely
more a rich full-bodied juice with the pulp
so don’t expect a pulp free juice with a
vertical juicer any vertical juicer especially
if you’re coming from a high speed centrifugal
ejection machine those ones make a pulp free
juice this will put some pulp in there let
me go ahead and taste that again I mean there’s
some pulp in there no doubt is it a lot I
mean it tastes a little bit you know I would
say it’s probably a little bit under average
for a vertical juicer for your standard vertical
juicer of course you’d get you know you
know some of the higher end machines they
may put less pulp in the juice some lower
end machines may put more but it’s about
average and totally acceptable meaning I mean
amazing that this mach…low-cost machine
with a three year warranty can do it alright
now I want to show you guys actually what
you have to clean when you’re done of course
you have to clean your collection cups and
all that stuff and they you’re going to
go ahead and pull this machine off pull this
apart so we’re going to take it out and
on this you can see the top pretty much clean
on the bottom a little bit of pulp residue
on the bottom there not a big deal and they
we’re going to go ahead and pull the auger
out oh and here’s a tip on the cleaning
act I want to give you maybe I’ll do it
for you guys I’ll do it actually real quick
you can actually pour water through here to
help the cleaning process out so I’m going
to go ahead and get some water to do that
for you alright so now I wanna show you guys
my self-cleaning tip so you’re going to
take about 24 ounces of water and what you’re
going to do clean water and you’re going
to go ahead and make sure your spout cap is
closed very important you’re going to go
ahead and pour it in the machine and take
a look at the level here we might not even
need that much for this machine we’re going
to pour it up until it goes up to the top
but not exceed the top right about there actually
so we really didn’t need we needed about
12 ounces and then we’re going to go ahead
and put the rest underneath there that could
be empty for all I care and then we’re going
to turn this on and let the machine run well
you’ll notice is that some pulp may start
to flow back out of the machine and now what
the machine is doing is basically auto cleaning
itself so it’s going to make your job a
little bit easier you know when you have to
clean it right now is basically circulating
the water around it’s running it through
the screen and something puts extra pulp out
it is just kind of cleaning up things just
a little bit if you’re really smart you
do is you’d actually use some filtered water
for the step run that through and all the
juice you catch it comes out as a filtered
water you can just drink that as a diluted
kind of water with a little bit of juice in
there which is kind of nice I just used the
tap water you know to clean the juicer out
in this case in which this case actually this
would try to get water into my vegetable garden
I don’t know once you let this run for like
maybe a minute or so 30 seconds whatever you
could go ahead and open up the spout cap and
see all the water come out so that’s some
of the juice that you wouldn’t normally
have to clean out sometimes I like to tip
that up a little bit and by tipping it a little
bit you’ll get a little bit more of the
liquid out you get a little bit cleaner go
ahead and turn that off once again close that
spout cap to prevent drips and now we get
to take the juicer apart to show you guys
actually what there’s to clean alright so
now it’s going to be a little bit more cleaner
this way and so now there’s the top there’s
the bottom still got a little bit of pulp
generally I just basically turn the hot water
on high blast water through here take a scrub
brush scrub this out super simple super easy
next we have the auger and the juicing screen
coming out and normally I would pull these
out in one fell swoop it’s a little easier
and this is what it looks like here’s the
auger here if we look the auger is pretty
much clean right I don’t see a lot of stuff
underneath the auger very little residue underneath
so that’s going to be really easy to clean
now the other thing I want to show you guys
is I don’t know if the camera is going to
pick this up but the auger is black right
but it if you look closely like John there’s
a sheen it looks like a girl wearing makeup
actually I wanna find a girl that wears this
color makeup that looks like kind of like
I don’t know um carrotish colored but I
mean it’s kind of like a green tinge kind
of looks like maybe like a mermaid how they
like reflect in a light don’t worry if your
auger has that any on any vertical juicer
after juicing carrots this always happens
that’s just some of the carotenoids mixing
in with the plastic if you want to get this
off dish brush with some soap some dish soap
scrub it right down right after you’re done
don’t let it sit and the stain will kind
of lock in place but it’s just purely cosmetic
not going to affect the function and finally
here’ the juicing screen what you’re going
to have to clean you know you can see pulp
was literally extracting out the hole that’s
why the juice has some pulp in it it just
basically came out of the holes pushing the
holes made it into the juice and that’s
what I tasted inside the screen it’s fairly
east to clean and and then of course of course
you have the juicing bowl here let’s go
ahead and get some of the pulp out of this
there and you know once again pretty easy
to clean you see a little bit of pulp residue
around the middle that’s basically where
we’re sitting at the bottom of the screen
I mean this going to be really easy to clean
I estimate this is going to take me under
three minutes to clean easily maybe two and
a half three minutes the most important thing
is you’re going to have to scrub off the
screen her so you want to take off the back
end of the scrubbing tool that they came with
with a screwdriver and basically scrape down
the screen first and then go in with the brush
and just brush off the screen inside and out
set it to dry and you’re all done the most
important thing on cleaning any juicer with
a screen is you want to clean it right after
you’re done took you three minutes to juice
should take you three minutes to clean so
literally in under five to six minutes you
should be able to have a fresh vegetable juice
in the morning thanks to the Shine Juicer
that’s compact is going to be easy to fit
in any apartment or even your luggage you
can carry-on now TSA will want to stop you
and and make sure you have a juicer and it’s
not going to blow up anything so allow for
some extra time when taking on your carry-on
I mean I think that’s pretty much it I want
you guys to be able to rise and shine literally
with your Shine Juicer so you guys can make
your fresh medical medium celery juice or
just your fresh juice on whatever program
you guys are doing juicing is one of the most
important things you guys could do to improve
your health in my opinion the Shine Juicer
makes it affordable easy dependable at least
the next three years while it’s under warranty
this is a juicer that I would recommend if
you guys are looking for a low-cost machine
and you really don’t have the money or don’t
want to invest in the high-end machines that
will probably last much longer you will get
a little bit better results overall but you
know this machine for what it is it’s super
