If you use a centrifugal juicer, you can’t really store the juice, you must drink it straight away. This is because the juice is very aerated by the process and oxidizes straight away.The good news is if you own an auger or twin gear juicer your juice is “cold pressed” giving you a nutrient rich juice that you can indeed store!

Now what we do is make our juice in one session in the morning and enjoy it until the day is done. We store the juice in the fridge in bottles with the air tight levered top ensuring an air tight seal, keeping the juice as fresh as possible.

Do please remember this though; as soon as you make your juice it is rather like a battery! full of power straight from the off but it will start to wilt a little before long. The reason for this is that most nutrients are fairly fragile, time, heat, air and processing destroys them, also the enzymes in the juice will actually start to “digest” the nutrients of the juice itself! That’s how active or “live” fresh juices are!
