Breville BJE200C manual Fruit and vegetable facts

BJE200C, BJE200 specifications

The Breville BJE200C, also known as the Breville Juice Fountain Compact, is a remarkable juicer designed for those who appreciate freshness and convenience in their daily lives. This compact juicer is particularly suited for kitchens with limited counter space, offering a space-efficient design without sacrificing performance.

One of the standout features of the BJE200C is its powerful 700-watt motor, which ensures efficient juice extraction from fruits and vegetables. The 3-inch feed chute is another significant advantage, allowing whole fruits like apples and pears to be juiced without the need for chopping. This not only speeds up the juicing process but also maximizes the yield of every juice made, making it perfect for those on the go.

In terms of technology, the BJE200C utilizes a dual-speed setting, accommodating both softer and harder produce to extract maximum nutrients and flavor. The low speed is ideal for softer fruits, while the high speed can handle denser vegetables and harder fruits, ensuring versatility for a variety of juicing needs.

The design of the Breville BJE200C prioritizes ease of use and maintenance. Its compact size makes it simple to store, and assembly is a breeze, allowing users to get started juicing with minimal effort. Cleanup is facilitated by the removable parts, many of which are dishwasher-safe. The juicer's stainless steel filter basket offers durability and makes it easy to achieve smooth, high-quality juice.

Another characteristic that sets the BJE200C apart is its emphasis on health and nutrition. It effectively retains vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, enabling users to enjoy the full benefits of their fruits and vegetables. The juicer also boasts a built-in safety locking arm that prevents the machine from operating unless properly assembled, ensuring safe use.

Overall, the Breville BJE200C Juice Fountain Compact is a thoughtfully designed juicer that combines innovation and practicality. With its powerful motor, wide feed chute, dual-speed settings, and ease of cleaning, it caters to both novice and experienced juicers. This compact powerhouse not only fits snugly in any kitchen but also encourages healthy living through freshly made, nutrient-rich juice.
