This ingenious device uses a gentle steam process to open up the fruit and vegetable cells so that the juice falls in to the juice pot and it can then be drained off to be bottled or canned. This method is ideal for preparing large amounts of juice for storing and would suit people with small orchards or for those who produce more fruits and vegetables than they can eat.
Making the juice is really easy, just fill the water pan with water and place on your cooker hob to boil. Wash your fruit, berries, vegetables etc. (we use Veggi-Wash to remove agrochemicals) and place them in the steamer basket; there is no need to pit or stem the produce. Steam the produce for between 40-70 minutes, the juice falls in to the juice pot and then you drain the pure juice by removing the clamp on the drainage tube to drain in to your jars, bottles or preferred storage vessel.
The Mehu Liisa steam juicer design and build quality are excellent, it is constructed of high grade 18/10 stainless steel and all steel parts are warranted for 10 years. The water pan has a thick base ensuring the heat is evenly distributed which ensures easy steam flow for better juicing and more efficient use of energy. This steam juicer is not a new fangled gadget and has been around for over 40 years.
The steam juicer can be used to make large amounts of pure juice and can also be used to make cordials, jellies, jam, chutney and preserves from soft skinned fruits and berries like grapes, apples, cherries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries etc. It can also be used to steam and cook complete meals whilst preserving the natural flavour and nutritional value. It is great for steaming mussels, lobster, corn on the cob, meats, potatoes, puddings, and cakes.
