  • John from www.discountjui... shows you the best non-toxic way to deep clean your juicer to remove mineral deposits and build-up on your juicer so you can get it looking like new again.
    In this episode, you will learn about the best non-toxic cleaner that people eat to clean your juicer to make to remove deep stains that you are unable to scrub off with soap and water.
    First, you will learn how to minimize the mineral deposits and build-up on your juicer parts in the first place to ensure your juicer stays as clean as possible so there is no need to perform this deep cleaning technique.
    Next, you will learn how to make the citric acid solution by using boiling water and cool water along with citric acid that you can soak your juicer parts in overnight that will loosen the build-up, stains, and mineral deposits.
    Finally, John will show you the results after soaking in the citric acid water solution overnight and the changes that happened to the juicing parts. You will then learn how simply scrubbing with soap and a dish brush can remove the built-up mineral deposits after soaking overnight.
    Next, you will learn about the green scrubby and how it can be used to help scrub off the mineral deposits off the stainless steel parts.
    After watching this episode, you will learn about the best non-toxic way to clean your juicing screen and remove the mineral deposits and build-up from making celery juice or other vegetable juices.

      Great update thanks. Maybe you can delete your oxi clean videos? As that stuff is very harmful. i got some on my skin and it took many days for it to heal. its hard to rinse off the juicer too. People see the old video with oxi clean but do not see that you no longer recommend it. peace

    I've recently added tumeric to my juice. It leaves a gummy residue both on the screen and auger that will not come out with citric acid, dish soap, or elbow grease. Something thing that works is Cafiza - I use it to clean my coffee maker. A teaspoon in a big bowl, soak, and then a good scrubbing. Thanks for what you've given the juicing community.

    Thanks for the video. I tried it and it helped somewhat. My juicer had never been deep cleaned. So I added more citric acid and used very hot water and did a soak. I soaked it several times this way just by reheating the citric acid mix. I did scrub in between soaks until I got it clean.
    A suggestion I have, now after every time I juice I use a tsp of citric acid a drop of Dawn and very warm water and fill the juicer and let it spin for about 5 mins. No more mineral deposits! Rinse wirh water when finished.

    I tried this method with my Omega upright juicer and it didn't work all that great. Definitely better, but still a lot of mineral buildup that didn't come off no matter how hard I scrubbed. .
    Edit: Ran through the whole process again, because it had been a while since I did a deep cleaning. Second time cleaned it beautifully!

    • @UnigirlTx
      @UnigirlTx 3 роки тому +2

      Oh I also bring the water to a boil or close to it and add the baking soda to it. The baking soda dissolves better in the hot water. In a pinch I have also sprinkled a little baking soda on it and added straight vinegar and let it bubble for a while, but I don't recommend doing this every time because it is corrosive. I also use some dishwashing liquid after the soaking to make sure to remove any residue from the parts

    A small improvement. Add a few drops of olive oil to the appliance and spread it with a brush so that the surface is greasy. It acts as a lubricant, the juicer works more efficiently and gives more juice, the oil partially protects against condensation of dirt. Spray oil can also be used. It works perfectly on my centrifugal juicer.

    If you have hard water, one thing that can help slow the accumulation of deposits is to dry things. I've got a 14 year old Vitamix container that is mostly clear because I dry the inside every use.
    I also dry my Sana 727 juicer parts, and while I can see a little mineral buildup inside the hopper, where I can't reach all that well with a towel, the other parts look good. No staining on the screen AT ALL! And yes, I always use a drop of soap to clean my screen.
    I probably will do a citric acid deep clean in the near future just to get things before they get bad.
    Is there a recommended interval for a deep clean?

    Any advice keep carrot juice from staining the juicer that doesn't require soaking every time? It generally takes me about 30-45 minutes to make about 1L of carrot juice followed by 0.5L of celery juice which I immediately bottle airtight for refrigerator storage. It takes me another 15-30 minutes just trying to clean the parts, and even with hot water, dish soap, OxyClean, etc. it still doesn't get rid of all the staining in that time but I don't have all day to scrub nor do I want to soak overnight every time I juice. The white plastic part of the gears as well as the white plastic inside adjacent to the gears are the worst, and they immediately stain. I recently removed over 10 years of buildup soaking over 48 hours in Oxyclean per your last video which I just saw reading the comments you no longer recommend and after that and some additional scrubbing. But on the very next juicing session the orange staining is back which it seems over time is what turns into the brown gunk, so if I could avoid that, that would be great.
