How to improve juice quality in my business?
10/02/2025

Freshly squeezed juice is a star product in many hospitality businesses, as it is a fresh, tasty, vegan option with multiple health benefits.
However, it is crucial that the juice offered is flavorful, without the presence of essential oils that turn it bitter, free from residues, and with the right amount of pulp.
Juice quality can vary depending on different factors, even if you have a high-end automatic juicer like those from Zumoval. To ensure the best experience for your customers and maximize the performance of the juicer in your business, here are some key tips:
1. Choose fresh, high-quality fruits
The quality of the juice largely depends on the quality of the fruit used. Ensure you select fresh, ripe, and undamaged citrus fruits. Choose organic fruits when possible and check they have the optimal level of ripeness to achieve a balanced flavor between sweetness and acidity.
2. Proper fruit storage
To maintain the flavor and texture of the juice, it's essential to store oranges and other citrus fruits in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight and make sure the fruit is not too cold, as citrus juice at very low temperatures can lose some of its flavor and aroma.
3. Juicer cleaning and maintenance
A clean juicer is crucial for producing high-quality juice. Zumoval juicers feature easy-to-clean systems like self-cleaning, which helps eliminate pulp residues during the juicing process. Make sure to clean the parts of the juicer daily by disassembling the juicing system to avoid pulp or residue buildup that could affect the juice’s taste.
4. Use the correct settings
Zumoval juicers adapt to different fruit sizes with accessories like the L or S Juicing Kit. Using the correct setting for the diameter of the fruit you are juicing ensures optimal performance and better juice extraction, preventing the peel from being pressed and releasing essential oils that cause bitterness.
5. Serve juice immediately
Freshly squeezed juice starts to lose its nutritional properties and freshness shortly after extraction. To maintain the best quality, juice and serve it immediately or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for a limited time. If offering bottled juice, use glass containers to preserve its flavor and properties better.
6. Prevent juice oxidation
Exposure to air causes oxidation, which can affect the juice’s flavor and color. To reduce this effect, you can add a few drops of lemon juice, which acts as a natural antioxidant. If bottling the juice, it is advisable to fill the containers completely to minimize the amount of air in contact with the liquid.
7. Adjust pulp amount according to customer preferences
Some customers prefer juice with more pulp, while others prefer it more liquid. Thanks to Zumoval’s different filtering systems, you can adjust the amount of pulp retained and offer customized options based on your customers' preferences.
8. Experiment with fruit combinations
To differentiate yourself from the competition and add extra value, try mixing oranges with other fruits like grapefruit, pomegranate, carrot, or even ginger with FastJuice and BigFastJuice juicers. This not only enhances the juice’s nutritional profile but also allows you to expand your offering with innovative and appealing flavors for customers.
9. Train your staff
Zumoval juicers are very easy and intuitive to use. However, a well-trained team in juicer use, cleaning processes, and fruit selection and handling will ensure highly efficient production and high-quality juice. Train your staff in best practices to keep the juicer in optimal condition and improve the customer experience. You can find all the necessary information in the machine’s user manual.
10. Promote the quality of your juice
Consumers are increasingly valuing natural and healthy products. Effectively promote that you use freshly squeezed juice with Zumoval machines, highlighting its benefits and freshness. Use posters, menus, and social media to inform your customers and attract new consumers looking for fresh and high-quality products.
Having an automatic Zumoval juicer is already a significant advantage for guaranteeing fresh and natural juice in your business. However, applying these small tips will help you further improve the product’s quality, optimize processes, and offer the best experience to your customers. With a good selection of fruits, proper equipment handling, and attention to detail, you can stand out in the market and maximize your business profitability.
