Matstone 6 in 1 Juicer review

The Matstone 6 in 1 single auger juicer is a genuine cold press, masticating juicer. The profiled auger turns slowly at 80 rpm, crushing the juicing material and literally wringing out the juice. I like to think of this style of juicer as a cold press style that offers high quality juice that can be stored for 12-24 hours without losing too much nutrient content. This allows juicing to become more efficient as one juicing session per day or every other day is sufficient.

This technology gives you a genuine high quality juice with maximum nutrients available. This is also one of the types of juicer that can handle wheatgrass and leafy greens.

The Matstone is a single auger juicer this class of juicer employs the fewest number of parts and is the easiest to clean! a great plus point. Each juicer comes with nozzles to make breadsticks, pasta etc making the machine a versatile kitchen implement. I use mine to mince up fresh ingredients for natural baby food!

Masticating juicers use a relatively small motor (200 watts) and a reduction gearbox to reduce the turning speed to 80 rpm, this is the heart of the machine so it is essential to buy a machine with an excellent quality motor and gearbox. The juicing parts on the juicer are quick and easy to dismantle featuring quarter turn bayonet style fittings, all seals are captive so nothing falls out and gets lost. Importantly the Matstone utilizes a separate metal juicing screen this is the part that has the juicing material pressed against it by the rotating auger. Naturally it gets a hard time and can be cheaply replaced. The rest of the parts are well made and last very well, availability is good though should you lose or break anything.

The slow turning cold press Matstone juicer is the type of machine that can juice fruits, vegetables and importantly leafy greens. So if you want to juice wheatgrass this is the type of machine for you. This same slow turning style makes the machine a great way of mincing and grinding foods without losing any nutrients of health giving properties, so you can mince and homogenize foods in a thorough but gentle way.

We've used all kinds of machines and make no mistake, ALL juicers are good things even the cheapest starter centrifugal juicer will allow you to make fresh juices at home, which must be a positive thing! But we do think the the single auger juicer such as the Matstone juicer is the best solution for the typical domestic juicing scenario, offering the best blend of performance, practicality and ease of cleaning! Very important that last one!

Mark makes a lot of fresh juicer and blender drinks and tries to be as healthy as he can be.
