800JEXL specifications

The Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite is a high-performance juicer designed for both the professional and the home juice enthusiast. With its sleek stainless steel design, it combines aesthetic appeal with functional prowess, making it a focal point in any kitchen. One of the standout features of the 800JEXL is its powerful 1,000-watt motor, which operates at a high speed of 13,000 RPM. This impressive motor allows for quick juicing, ensuring that nutritious juices can be made in mere seconds.

The dual-speed control is another noteworthy aspect of the 800JEXL, which caters to a variety of fruits and vegetables. The lower speed of 6,500 RPM is perfect for softer items such as berries and leafy greens, while the higher speed efficiently processes denser produce like carrots and apples. This flexibility not only maximizes juice extraction but also ensures optimal nutrient preservation.

One of the juicer’s key technologies is the Italian-made micro-mesh filter, which is designed to extract maximum juice while minimizing pulp. This feature results in silky-smooth juice with a vibrant color, enhancing the overall drinking experience. The large 3-inch feed chute is another significant characteristic, allowing whole fruits and vegetables to be juiced without pre-cutting, drastically reducing preparation time.

The Breville 800JEXL also emphasizes ease of cleaning, a significant consideration for any juicer. Its parts are dishwasher safe, while the stainless steel body can be easily wiped down. The included brush aids in cleaning the micro-mesh filter, ensuring longevity and consistent performance.

Safety and stability are also integral to the design of the 800JEXL. The juicer features a safety locking arm that ensures the lid is securely in place during operation. Additionally, non-slip feet provide stability, preventing any movement during the high-speed juicing process.
