While many conventional manual juicers rely on grip strength alone, and using a citrus reamer can end in a sticky mess, this innovative Helix Citrus Juicer from Joseph Joseph uses the rotational power of a helix to do all the hard work for you. How it works Just pop half an orange, lemon or lime into the stainless steel bowl in the bottom part, engage the top part into the helical groove and push the handles together. The helix design draws the two pieces together with very little pressure from you, juice flows freely into your glass or measuring jug and all the pips and pith are held neatly inside. An ideal swift solution when you’re rustling up a lemon drizzle cake or want a glass of freshly-squeezed vitamin C at breakfast time. Other features Made from durable stainless steel and nylon, the two separate parts make for really easy cleaning. Joseph Joseph Helix – the science bit The design team at Joseph Joseph worked out that using a 180° helical twist would mean cooks could utilise their upper body strength, using the naturally strong muscle groups in arms and shoulders rather than relying on having a firm grip. The resulting Helix range of products makes mashing, ricing, juicing and crushing garlic much easier than in conventional lever-press versions.
