Discover why many industry experts and consumers alike believe the new
Breville Juice Fountain Elite is by far the finest juicer ever made. The Juice
Fountain series has sold almost a million units around the world and once you
experience the performance of this beautifully constructed juicer from Breville,
you will certainly understand why.
Innovation Leader
The Breville Juice Fountain has revolutionized the way the world sees
juicing. Prior to its invention in 1999, no juice extractor could process whole
apples and pears without peeling, cutting, slicing or dicing. The average 8 oz
glass of juice took over 3 minutes - the Juice Fountian does it in 5 seconds.
Breville's idea of positioning the feed tube directly over the center of the
cutting disc provides sufficient balance to juice whole fruit, while the
patented stabilizing knife and dual-action blade assembly grind pulp into
smaller particles for faster, higher-yielding results.
Materials
The Juice Fountain Elite’s outer shell is made from the highest grade
aluminum and zinc and is completely die-cast. Unlike thinker pressed metals,
die-cast construction molds molten metal into shape at intense temperatures. The
result is ultimate durability and performance, and a superbly refined finish.
The Juice Fountain’s interior components feature a titanium-plated cutting disc
and a stainless steel micro-mesh filter with over 40,000 filtering pores. All
parts are dishwasher safe and have been designed with fewer food traps so that
it’s very simple to clean.
Motor
The 1,000 watt (1 1/3 horsepower), Italian-made motor delivers ultimate power
and durability. The built-in electronic 'smart chip' regulates power to the
blades, depending on juicing load. Once pressure is placed against the cutter,
the electronic motor automatically boosts power to the cutter and filter to
ensure that they maintain optimum speed under load. Although for household use
only, the Juice fountain Elite has sufficient power to rival most commercial
juicing machines and performs at an impressive 13,000 revolutions per minute
(RPM) on high speed.
Speed
Harder fruits and vegetables, like apples and carrots, require more power for
optimal results. For these items, the Juice Fountain Elite's high-speed delivers
a crushing 13,000 RPM, approximately 3 times faster than most other machines. At
such speeds, teh pulp particles are 'g-forced' against the filter with remendous
pressure to squeeze out as much juice a possible. Low-speed spins at a whisper
quiet 6,500 rpms, which delivers the best results when juicing leafy vegetables,
or softer fruits such as watermelon and orange. A detailed manual/recipe book is
included with the machine that lists which vegetables are best suited to High
and Low Speeds.
Capacity
The unique circular 3" stainless steel feed-tube easily processes whole
fruits and vegetables without pre-cutting, slicing or dicing. the patented
design centers the feed tube directly over the cutter, giving the strength to
process large quantities of fruit and vegetables instantly. Most varieties of
apples, peasr and peeled orantes can be juiced whole through the feed tube in
seconds, a process that previoulsly took several mutes. It makes an 8 ounce
glass of juice from whole apples in under 5 seconds. The machine comes standard
with a 34 fl. oz (1 liter) juicing pitcher and large 100 fl. oz pulp
container.
Cutter and Filter
The Juice Fountain Elite's patented, dual-action, diagonal knife blades are
encased by a stainless steel cutting disc which features 115 individual knives
to grind pulp into the tiniest particles. teh cutter and filter are both Italian
crafted, and the stainless steel filter's 40,000 micro-pores have been formed
with such precision that no single pore can be detected by the human eye. The
'micro-mesh' design maximizes the filter's effective catchment area, resulting
in superior juice yield with all types of fruits and vegetables.
