Juicing time. 🫚
Another moment where I whisper a small prayer to my juicer:
Please don’t break down this time. Not yet. I have no budget for a brand new you. 😂
I’ve been using my Matstone slow juicer since 2018 for our ginger and turmeric. And if you’ve ever juiced these fibrous roots especially in larger quantities you know they are TOUGH on a machine.
This little workhorse has been with me for years, quietly taking on kilos of ginger and turmeric batch after batch.
The problem? Matstone has discontinued producing a lot of its parts. 🥹
So currently, we’re working with our last 3 juicing screens.
Yes. I am now emotionally attached to juicer parts. 😂
We’re not quite ready to invest in a $2,000 ++ commercial juicer just to juice two roots, so for now… we keep going.
Matstone, you and me. One batch at a time. 🙏😂
For my fellow small food biz owners: any recommendations for a sturdy juicer that can handle ginger + turmeric in larger quantities without costing a small fortune?
Drop them below. My future self and my remaining 3 juicing screens thank you. 🥹
