Back to Basics N12 Review
Back to Basics N12 Review by Bruce D. Watson "Geojeepers!" (San Diego, Ca)
Steel is of a heavier gauge than I expected. Aluminum bottom to pot is a plus. Had never used a steam juicer before, was somewhat dissapointed with the amout of pulp that remained. May get better as we familiarize ourselves with the process.
Back to Basics N12 Review by Suzanne Johnson (Nashville, TN USA)
I purchased 60 pounds of concord grapes, I used 2 stainless steel steam juicers to extract juice from the grapes. The Back To Basics steam juicer is great quality, heavy weight & stainless steel (its is 2.5 pounds heavier than the Cook N Home stainless steel steam juicer). You wash grapes, leave on stems and no need to take seeds out. Place grapes in top pan & the steam causes juice to drip into the middle pan, bottom pan has water that makes the steam.
I ended up with 28 or 29 quarts of juice. (it takes 45 minutes for a whole pan of juice to be ready). The middle pan has a tube coming from the side that allows you to drain juice into caning jars, place warm lid on & then canning ring & you are finished. Since I had 2 steam juicers going at the same time it only took me 3 times each to get the 60 pounds juiced.
To drink you can add 1 part juice to 1 part water or you can do like we do and drink it straight, no sugar or water.
Next I took leftover pulp/stems/seeds & put through a Foley mill and ended up with 8 cups of pure grape puree that I have dehydrating into fruit leathers(this took 7 hours for them to dry).
Then I took the pulp/stems/seeds that I had just run through the mill, placed in a large pan and added water, simmered on medium heat about 45 minutes, strained juice out & canned it for my 16 month old grandson (his mama gives him 1/2 juice & 1/2 water so this will be perfect for him) I took this juice & poured into 1/2 pint canning jars, placed warm lids on & then rings I got lots of bang for my buck!
UPDATE: After I put the pulp/seeds/stems through Foley Mill (for fruit rollups) I divided it into 2 pans & added 64 oz of water to each pan, let simmer, I ended up getting 18 half pints for my grandson & I will still need to dilute it. Its still pretty strong for him.
I plan on juicing apples next weekend. I will update you & let you know how much juice I get from a bushel of apples.
Back to Basics N12 Review by Harvester/Gatherer
I have used this juicer many times since I received it. It is well made, strong and durable. It will hold a large quanity of fruit. It does extract juice better with soft fruit but I recently juiced about 6 batches of apples with excellent results. Before I juiced the apples I washed, quartered and then froze the apples to break up the cells. I put the frozen apple pieces into the juicer and the apples juiced perfectly! I then ran the leftover skin, pulp and seeds through a food mill and got some wonderful apple butter! I had very little compost left.
I am very happy with this purchase and the price.
