Hurom’s patented Slow Squeeze Technology is intended to mimic the squeezing of juice by hand, thus reducing damage to the juice.

Alternatively, centrifugal juicers shred the produce rapidly, which in turn produces less juice and the least amount of nutrients. Some people like centrifugal juicers because of the speed, but slow juicers like the Hurom HP Slow Juicer make superior tasting juice. Additionally, because slow juicers oxidize the juice less, it is more nutritious!

With this juice press, you can make celery juices, green juices, nut-based milk alternatives, and other simple juice recipes.

Hurom HP Slow Juicer features

Is Hurom HP easy to use?

The Hurom HP Juicer is quick and easy to assemble after a couple of attempts. However, it is slightly heavier, weighing 15.9 pounds (7.2 kilograms).

Therefore, I recommend setting it up in a single spot on your kitchen counter and leaving it there, unless you do not mind picking it up every time you want to use it. It only comes with the Ultem fine juicing strainer.

As mentioned previously, this juicer has an excellent design. So you won’t mind leaving it out on your countertop.

As with all vertical slow juicers, it utilizes gravity to encourage self-feeding. To ensure steady juicing, prepare your items prior to juicing. The feed chute is smaller to prevent fingers from entering and getting caught on the auger wings.

Cut everything up into thinner and smaller pieces. If you are juicing items like celery, then chop them into pieces no longer than an inch. The long fibrous pieces might get caught up in the auger.

If you place your items in at a steady pace, then you should not encounter any issues with jamming of the machine. If you experience a jam, then turn it off, and reverse the machine to force the produce in the opposite direction.

Use the pusher to gently help your items catch on the auger wings. If you feel like mixing juices within the chamber, simply close the cap and allow it to mix inside before allowing it to pour out into the juice container.

Is Hurom HP easy to clean?

The best way to clean Hurom HP components is by hand. The spinning brush clears away the pulp from the juicing strainer as it juices and also if you fill it with water while it operates.

Small and large cleaning brushes are included with the juicer to make cleaning a little easier. These brushes make reaching small crevices a breeze. Disassemble the parts and submerge them in warm, soapy water. Use the brushes to scrub off the excess pulp from the juice strainer. Clear the pulp ejector of any leftover pulp and rinse the components clean.

It’s always a good idea to wash your juicer machine right away to prevent residue build-up.

Juice Quality

Even though this model does not hold the same volume of liquid at the other models, the Hurom HP Slow Juicer extracts high-quality juice using Hurom’s patented Slow Squeezing Technology (SST). The auger breaks down the produce by squeezing and pressing it against the juicing screen.

Unlike centrifugal juicers that expel wet pulp, it removes the highest possible quantity of juice, leaving behind extremely dry pulp. The other major difference is that there is minimal oxidation because Hurom’s juicers have been optimized for taste throughout the years.

It is also packed with antioxidants, phytonutrients, and vitamins. It may have some pulp content, but it can be easily strained out with a sieve.

Juice extracted from a cold press juicer can be stored for up to 72 hours in the refrigerator. You can use glass, stainless steel, or plastic containers. Fill the container almost the entire way to the top, then seal with a tight lid.

What kinds of produce can Hurom HP juice?

This juice press can process all types of produce—dense produce, citruses, leafy greens, and some beans and nuts.

Dense produce includes pear, beets, apple, sweet potato, asparagus, carrots, pepper, celery, cucumber, fennel, ginger, coconut, garlic, yakon, turmeric, cauliflower, bitter gourd, watermelon, broccoli, cilantro, pumpkin, and pineapple.
