Is it worth buying a cold press juicer?
Cold press juicers certainly do have their benefits. Unlike the traditional blender which produces excess heat from high operated blades, the cold juice blender operates on a lower speed, retaining the lower temperature of fruit and vegetables. Ultimately, this produces a cold and refreshing juice for you to enjoy right out of the machine.
