Complex juicers available on the industry right now.
Another term for this machine is triturating juicer.
These extractors use two metal gears that counter rotate at low speed (around
120 rpm) to crush any fruit or vegetable you feed.
The two metal gears operate in principle exactly the same was as an automatic transmission
inside your vehicle.
All the metal teeth are just millimeters apart for maximum return so there is a
learning curve in assembling and disassembling.
One big advantage twin gear juicers have over other types of juicers is the two

Excellent yield on just about anything you put inside -- whether fruit and leafy

There's no need to chop fibrous veggies like celery, spinach or collard greens
Versatile enough to make other foods like sorbet, nut butter, baby food as well as
crush nuts, coffee and grains
Cons
It's a lot of moving parts which make it difficult to clean
Expensive -- the cheapest would cost around $350

Most of these are huge and take up a lot of space
Our Pick: Tribest Greenstar GSE-5000
Looking for the best performing twin gear juicer, then the Tribest Greenstar GSE-
5000 should be on top of your list.
According to Tribest, this is only the 3 stage juicer in the market:
Crushing stage
Mixing stage
Squeezing stage.
Within the two gears of this juicer is a magnetic core that again Tribest claims to

vegetables.
HU-100, you'll end up getting a clogged mess.
Also this has a pressure adjustment knob that allows this machine to extract
more.
Another downside to this juicer aside from the price is the sheer size.
This machine is huge and you need space for it.
This juicer measures around 20" long and 12.5" tall. Since it uses two long gears,
clean up time would be longer than let's say a Samson Green Power.
Bottom line: If you want something that will perform well and extract Plenty of juice
Without having to pay over $1,000 for a stainless steel or a press juicer then go for
the GSE-5000. Make certain you have a lot of space within your kitchen.
Compact: Samson Green Power KPE 1304
Compact: Green Power KPE1304If space is your primary concern then have a look
at the Samson Green Power KPE 1304.
It is by far the smallest twin gear juicer in the market right now -- around 11″ tall
and 16″ long.
This will fit inside a small kitchen where space is a premium.
Another positive is the price, at under $430.
This compact extractor is the cheapest in this list but still comes with a 10 year
Warranty for the motor and 5 years for the operational components.
Powering this little Samson-like juicer is a 1/4 hp motor that turns the gears at
160 rpm. This is faster compared to a Super Angel and Green Star GSE-5000.
The added speed may add more to the juice but I don't think 40 rpm is enough to
heat up juice. The general rule of thumb for twin gears juices is you can store juice
between 48 to 72 hours. If you want it to last longer then you'll have to freeze it.
In terms of what it can make, this machine is as versatile as they come.
It can extract from leafy greens, fruits, fibrous greens like celery as well as
wheatgrass.
But if you want to juice wheatgrass make sure to mix in other ingredients like
carrot or apple.
Feeding pure wheatgrass will lead to a juice full of foam and froth.
It also comes with a blank plate attachment that allows you to make sorbet, nut
butter and even grind coffee beans -- you don't need to buy a coffee grinder
anymore!
You can also adjust the back pressure with the adjustment knob located on the
front. This gives you the option to squeeze out as much juice as possible but
Remember you'll need to push down on the feeding tube harder.
If you plan on making a lot of wheatgrass juice, you'll be better off with these
juicers that are capable of making pure wheatgrass shots minus the thick froth.
Bottom line: Budget conscious shoppers who aren't willing to pay $500 for a twin
Gear juicer will love the value for money this product brings to the table as well as
versatility.
All Stainless: Super Angel
All Stainless: Super AngelSome folks call this the "Rolls Royce of juicers" because
Of its flashy appearances but is it worth it?
Maybe the only all-stainless steel juicer in the market today, the Super Angel
5500 has bling written all over it.
The shiny stainless finish will not rust and last a long time. This is the main selling
Point of this machine and a big reason it costs so much.
Nearly all metal components of this extractor is made from FDA-approved
stainless steel (at least the exterior parts).
Since it is stainless it looks really nice in the kitchen and there's very little
chance that it corrodes.
The gears spin at a very slow 86 rpm which means there is virtually no heat
buildup. It's possible to store juice for up to 3 days, longer if you store it in a freezer.
Thanks to the 3 stage system (similar to the Tribest GS-5000) this machine will
be able to hold its own even against a good extracting juicer like the Omega 8006.
The fine screen allows it to create a less pulpy juice.
Juicer Review: Angel 5500 vs Omega 8006 Juicer Review and Comparison!
If you watched the video, you'll notice that the Super Angel was able to extract
around 100ml more apple juice and around twice more carrot juice than the
Omega 8006.
I like to compare these two because both of them does not have the knob
adjustment at allows you to increase backpressure.
So extraction wise it is impressive.
Should you buy the Super Angel 5500? Well it depends on your willingness to
Spend over $1300 to buy this.
If you can afford to purchase this all stainless steel juicer then by all means get it.
But you're not willing then Choose the cheaper options listed here and it will
perform as well -- it won't look as good though.
That's the only difference I can see.
Bottom line: This all stainless juicer is one of the prettiest juicers on the market. It
Will look good inside any modern kitchen but are you prepared to spend the money
To buy this when there are cheaper options available? That would depend on your
pocket and your willingness to spend.
The bottom line, why would you buy a twin gear juicer?
I wouldn't recommend this for a noob Due to the complexity and learning
curve. But if you are willing to put in the time to learn how to use it I wouldn't
stop you from buying one.
If you want both quantity and quality, this will be among the best
Investments that can be made.
But remember that it isn't as easy to clean this machine when you compare it to a
single gear juicer because it has two gears and more parts.
But if you don't mind the extra work and have some extra time in your hands,
Then go for it.
