Juicing order

  1. Fresh fennel bulb growing in clean garden soil with tall green fronds.

    1Fennel

    Start with fennel to build steady flow through the press.

  2. Fresh cucumbers growing on a vine with healthy leaves and soft natural light.

    2Cucumber

    Press 1 large cucumber, then continue alternating textures.

  3. Green apples growing on a tree branch with healthy leaves and warm natural light.

    3Green Apple

    Run green apple next so its sweetness carries through the press.

  4. Fresh ginger rhizomes growing at the soil line with healthy green shoots.

    4Ginger

    Tuck ginger between higher-yield pieces instead of feeding it alone.

  5. Fresh yellow lemons growing on a citrus tree branch with glossy green leaves.

    5Lemon

    Finish with lemon, then stir gently before bottling.
