~ Lexen Juicer Mk2 ~
cold press juicer

A Multi-functional Extra Heavy Duty compact Juicer that easily extracts juice from vegetables, wheat grass, barley grass, pine needles and other leafy greens. Fan cooled motor and strong gearbox.

Also makes Pasta and Noodles, grinds herbs and seasonings, makes baby food, minces meats, makes desserts / ice cream from frozen fruit and much more (see below).

JUICERS AUSTRALIA©™ were the first suppliers of the Lexen Juicer range to customers in Australia and New Zealand. Our official launch day was 12th January 2006.

The Lexen Juicer Mk2 is the new standard in juice extractors. This is a powerful masticating type juicer that 'crushes' vegetables, including hard vegetables such as carrots. Since there is no heat generated as in other juicers, all of the enzymes are preserved for a fresh and 'live' tasting juice. This affordable price allows everyone to enjoy the incredible health benefits of juicing.

More importantly, the machine is made of quality parts which will last a lifetime. This is represented by its 12-Year Warranty on its motor and 5-year warranty on parts.

The Lexen Juicer has so many different functions than just a juicer! It makes pasta, nut butters, healthy baby food, frozen desserts and is also a soy milk maker - which makes the price truly unbelievable!

The Lexen Juicer also includes TWO specially designed augers; one for vegetables and fruit and one for wheat grass.

The Lexen Juicer Mk2 is very efficient at juicing wheat-grass.

On the right-hand side is an actual picture of two samples of wheat grass after being run through two different cold press juicers. The top one is a typical juicer and the bottom one is from the Lexen Juicer. Notice how the bottom sample from the Lexen Juicer is like a piece of rope. It is reasonably dry with most juice extracted!

The Lexen Live Enzyme Juice Extractor extracts juice by a ‘cold press' method, thus ensuring that the live enzymes and nutrients are not destroyed by high speed friction and heat, as is the case with the centrifugal juice extraction method.

The Lexen Juicer is so versatile that the manufacturer states that it can even be used occassionally to extract juice from sugar cane (the bark and eye [hard core in between sections] must be removed first).

If you require more than one or two glasses of sugar cane juice per week, we would recommend either the Champion Juicer or the LexSun Professional Bender.

The ability to juice some sugar cane demonstrates the strength of the Lexen Juicer.

Pros

• 100% low speed, cold press juicer
• Tough poly-carbonate construction, auger etc
• Medium extraction rate. Ejects a damp pulp
• Entry level cold press juicer - yet very sturdy
• Multi purpose juicer, i.e. can juice - mince - soy milk - tofu - frozen fruit ice cream - sorbet - puree etc
• Pulp adjustment gives some extra control
• Very easy to clean
• Non staining
• Inexpensive
• Parts are also inexpensive
• Continuous external pulp ejection
• Summary: A very inexpensive cold press juicer; especially considering the quality of this multi purpose juicer / food processor

Cons

• The ultra tough poly-carbonate parts are not dishwasher safe; (however the stainless steel Angel Juicer parts are all dishwasher safe)
• As there is no juicing screen in the juicer, some pulp gathers on the juicing screen on the Juice Collector Bowl, which must be shaken off regularly
• Struggles with juicing lots of sloppy fruit such as pineapple and watermelon. To overcome this, simply 1) feed fruit through juicer slower; or 2) put carrot / celery etc through occasionally; and / or 3) loosen the pulp adjustment knob. (The LexSun Standard Juicer or LexSun Deluxe Juicer are better cold press juicers for coping with sloppy fruit)

Most juicers available through retail outlets (e.g. Panasonic, Breville, Black & Decker, Waring Health, Acme, Omega 4000, Jack LaLanne etc) are 'high speed centrifugal juicers', with speeds ranging between 1,000 rpm through to 30,000 rpm. Their main purpose is to produce juice as fast as possible, by cutting / shredding your produce at extremely high speeds. The result is generally an oxygenated juice that is heated at a molecular level, subsequently shortening the life of the juice to varying degrees. Most high speed juicers require regular pulp removal and cleaning, which can be annoying.

High speed centrifugal juicers are not true juice extractors, as the resultant juice also contains finely cut / shredded produce 'blended' into it, often giving the illusion of a higher juice extraction rate. Thus many 'high speed centrifugal juicers' are in reality a cross between a 'juice extractor / blender.' Although they cannot extract a 'living juice', they certainly can produce a "fast food" juice. High speed centrifugal juicers tend to suit busy people or 'beginners' who are happy with a basic quality blended juice.

Cold Press Masticating Juicers ~ Up to 200 rpm:

We chew our food at about 30 to 60 chews per minute via a cold press masticating process, thus insuring maximum nutrient availability. If our mouths were to imitate high speed centrifugal juicers, we would be chewing at an incredible 1,000 to 30,000 bites per minute... That is rather unnatural.

Some discerning customers insist on using only 'Cold Press Juicers' with speeds ranging from 70 to 200 rpm. Cold press juicers are purpose built machines that extract a high quality 'living juice' for maximum well-being.

Cold press juicers are genuine juice extractors that literally extract juice from your produce via a slow speed pressing action, e.g. 'cold press' masticating process. Because the nutrients are preserved, the juice tastes stronger (much better) and has a much longer shelf-life (especially when refrigerated). These juicers are especially appealing to health enthusiasts, sports people, convalescing patients and the elderly, as recommended by Dr Sandra Cabot.

Independent tests have concluded that: Non-centrifugal cold press juicers produce juice that lasts longer and contains more nutrients, Non-centrifugal cold press juicers extract more nutrients - in some cases double or even three times more than centrifugal juicers! (e.g. double the calcium etc,) Juice from non-centrifugal juicers still looked and smelt palatable after 48 hours, Juice from non-centrifugal cold-press-style machines is more nutritious and stays fresh and tasty for up to 48 hours, Non-centrifugal cold press juicers are easier to clean, do not have large bulky parts and are a great choice for juicing.

juic·er (jsr) n.

An appliance that is used to extract juice from fruits and vegetables.

liv·ing (lvng) adj

1. Possessing life
2. In active function or use
3. Of persons who are alive
4. Relating to the routine conduct or maintenance of life
5. Full of life, interest, or vitality.

juice (js) n.

1. A fluid naturally contained in plant or animal tissue: fruit juice
2. The liquid contained in something that is chiefly solid
3. A substance or quality that imparts identity and vitality; essence.

Single gear juicers have an auger (i.e. single gear) in the juicing chamber, which extracts a high quality 'living juice' in three stages:

1. The auger takes a 'bite' of the fruit or vegetable with each revolution;
2. it then crushes (cold press) the produce at a very low speed, thereby preserving the maximum amount of nutrients;
3. and extracts an ultra high quality 'living juice.'

In summary, single gear juicers:

1. Are economical and parts are inexpensive to replace;
2. are excellent for both beginners and experienced 'cold press juicing' advocates;
3. extract the same quality juice as their 'twin gear' counterparts;
4. have a slightly lower extraction rate than 'twin gear' juicers;
5. will not last as long as the higher precision 'twin gear' juicers.

Twin gear juicers have two gears (i.e. twin gear) in the juicing chamber, which extracts a high quality 'living juice' in three stages:

1. The twin gears continually 'cut' the fruit or vegetables as the gears revolve;
2. then crushes (cold press) the produce at a very low speed, thereby preserving the maximum amount of nutrients;
3. and extracts an ultra high quality 'living juice.'

In summary, twin gear juicers:

1. Are higher precision machines utilising high quality stainless steel gears, hence are more expensive 'top shelf' units;
2. are excellent for experienced 'cold press juicer' professionals;
3. extract the same quality juice as their 'single gear' counterparts;
4. have a higher extraction rate than 'single gear' juicers;
5. will last longer than the economy 'single gear' juicers.

It is recommended that you drink at least 250 ml's of fresh living juice each day:

Although eating fruits and vegetables in their natural state does provide a substantial amount of vitamins and minerals, much of their goodness is locked in the fibre which is expelled from your body. However, you can obtain additional benefits from them when they are juiced, especially with a quality: low r.p.m. - cold press type - non-centrifugal juicer.

When you juice fruits, vegetables and etc., their goodness is released from the fibre and you are able to drink their highly concentrated nutrients, which are then able to enter your bloodstream very quickly and efficiently.

For Maximum Benefit:

It is recommended that you swirl the juice around in your mouth a little, thereby mixing your living juice with your salvia, which aids in a more complete digestion. This is especially applicable to carrots, as in their normal state carrots require considerable chewing. Drinking fresh juice before a meal often reduces hunger at meal time.

Never put the pulp back into the juicer, it will damage the screen and makes void the warranty!

Cold press juicers are excellent for juicing vegetables or a combination of vegetable and fruit.

Cold press juicers often struggle with soft fruit such as pineapple. (The LexSun Standard Juicer and LexSun Deluxe Juicer cope with sloppy fruit the best.)

When juicing a lot of soft fruit such as pineapple or watermelon, simply feed slower. Adding some carrot, beetroot or celery also helps prevent clogging.

When juicing apples, Granny Smith apples (or similar) are best, as they are a hard fruit and contain more juice. Red apples are not suitable for cold press juicers.

Juice backing up the chute? In 99.9% of the cases where the juice backs up the chute and the juicer is not operating as good as it once was, it is because the tiny holes on the juicing screen have become progressively clogged after repeated use, and normal washing is not always sufficient to remove the dirt. Solution: Soak the part/s in a dessertspoon of Ezy Kleen powder and warm / hot water overnight; rinse in water the following morning and the juicer will operate like new. Ezy Kleen can be purchased here.
