In the press
How dill acts in the juicer.
- Yield
- Low
- Dill gives lighter yield, so use it for flavor and green character rather than bottle volume.
- Difficulty
- Moderate
- Feed dill with cucumber, celery, apple, or citrus so small leaves do not sit alone in the press.
- Texture
- Light green
- Adds green body without making the bottle heavy when the amount stays modest.
- Foam
- Low-medium
- Usually manageable, but small greens can create flecks that settle after bottling.
- Watch for
- Wet or wilted leaves
- Use fresh, perky dill and avoid sour, wet, or collapsed leaves.
- Best order
- Tucked between juicy produce
- Sandwich dill between higher-yield pieces for better extraction.
Choose · store · prep
Get it ready before the press.
Choose
- Feathery, bright green fronds.
- Strong dill aroma when leaves are rubbed.
- Avoid yellowed or blackened fronds.
Store
- Wrap loosely and refrigerate with a dry towel.
Prep
- Rinse fronds and use a small handful.
- Use the fronds, not the woody stems. Dill is potent — a small handful is enough to flavor a full bottle.
