Storing Fresh Juice

Once you have juiced your favorite fruits and vegetables using the BUNN Jack LaLanne JLPJB Power Juicer, it's important to store the fresh juice properly to maintain its freshness and nutritional value. Here are some guidelines to follow:

• Choose appropriate containers: When storing fresh juice, it is best to use glass containers or BPA-free plastic bottles. Avoid using metal containers, as they can react with the juice and affect its taste. Make sure the containers have airtight lids to prevent any oxidation.
• Refrigeration: Freshly juiced fruits and vegetables should be refrigerated immediately to slow down the oxidation process and prevent the growth of bacteria. Store the juice in the refrigerator at a temperature of 40°F (4°C) or below.
• Shelf life: The shelf life of fresh juice can vary depending on the ingredients used. Typically, freshly juiced fruit and vegetable juices can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 72 hours.

• Keep away from light and air: Exposure to light and air can degrade the quality of fresh juice. Store the containers in a dark and cool place in the refrigerator, away from any sources of light or heat.
• Separation is normal: It is common for fresh juice to separate over time. Before consuming, give the stored juice a gentle shake or stir to mix the separated layers back together.

• Enjoy your fresh juice: Freshly juiced fruits and vegetables are best consumed immediately to enjoy their full flavor and nutritional benefits. However, by following these storage guidelines, you can preserve the freshness and nutritional value of your juice for an extended period.

Utilizing Juice Pulp

Don't let the leftover pulp from your BUNN Jack LaLanne JLPJB Power Juicer go to waste! There are plenty of creative ways to make use of this nutrient-rich byproduct. Here are some ideas and recipes to get you started:

Muffins

Give your baked goods a healthy twist by incorporating juice pulp into muffin recipes. The pulp adds moisture, texture, and a subtle flavor to your muffins. Here's a simple recipe to try:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
• In a mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

• Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
• Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter.
• Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Soups

Boost the nutritional value of your homemade soups by incorporating juice pulp. The pulp adds fiber, flavor, and a hint of sweetness to your soups. Here's a recipe for a hearty vegetable soup:

• In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
• Add 1 diced onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, and sauté until the onion turns translucent.
• Add 2 cups of juice pulp (such as kale, spinach, or cucumber) and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Additional Tips and Tricks

If you want to get the most out of your BUNN Jack LaLanne JLPJB Power Juicer, here are some additional tips and tricks that can help enhance the flavor, maximize yield, and create a successful juicing routine:

• Prep your fruits and vegetables properly before juicing. This means washing them thoroughly to remove any dirt or residues. For leafy greens, make sure to remove any tough stems that can affect the juicing process.
