KitchenCraft Wooden Citrus Reamer, 15 cm, Beige

Product Information

The reamers are sharp enough to tear through fruit and quickly extract all the juice, and the cup has a nice wide pour spout that’s drip-free. Switch between the two reamers to tackle large and small citrus fruit with the OXO Good Grips 2-In-1 Citrus Reamer/Juicer 350ml. Still, it’s not a bad idea to have it tucked into your utensil drawer as a backup, especially because it costs less than ten bucks. Similarly, the KitchenAid Citrus Squeezer allowed a user to place it on the countertop and use their weight to press down on the handle like a lever, making the juicing motion very smooth and easy. The rankings varied from juice to juice, especially between the three types of juicers: hinged squeezer, countertop juicer, and handheld reamer.

It ranked higher than others for flavor and fragrance due to its ability to extract oils from the lemon's skin. It includes a sturdy yellow reamer, which is ideal for juicing fresh oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruits. Because of its inside ridged design, it kept the lemon halves in place and the drainage slits curved down towards the center of the bowl, allowing you to direct the juice towards a container easily. The Mueller forced the fruit onto a perforated metal cone and juice flowed through the holes and through a drain-like opening in the bottom.They’re the way to go for maximum juice extraction, but they’re more time-consuming to use, and unless you’re using one with an attached cup, you’ll get citrus all over your hands. Most reamers with an attached cup are meant to sit flat on a table while you press down, but they’re hard to hold on to and can slip around. This is another great citrus squeezer we’d be happy to use at home, it just got upstaged by the KitchenAid this year. The Zulay Metal Lemon-Lime Squeezer is marketed as a 2-in-1 squeezer because it can juice both lemons and limes.

And even if you regularly juice large quantities of lemons, limes, grapefruits, or oranges, you can use a high-quality manual juice press that’s just as efficient as electric models, and easier to clean too. For high-yield citrus juicing that won’t leave your hands covered in acidic juices and oils, the Müeller definitely gets the job done. A reamer is usually smaller, and is used by pushing the device into the halved citrus, twisting it, and extracting the juice. These 4 or 5-star reviews represent the opinions of the individuals who posted them and do not reflect the views of Etsy. We also measured the amount of juice extracted from them, but we tried not to focus too closely on very small differences because the actual yield is so dependent on each individual piece of fruit.While all but one of the models we tested are dishwasher-safe, if you can, it’s best to hand-wash the hinged squeezers since pulp can sometimes get caught in the nooks and crannies of the hinges. In terms of mess, it’s not very different from hand-juicing since you’ll get a lot of juice and oil on your hands throughout the process. For countertop models, the Chef’n Citrus Juicester performed best and includes an orange reamer attachment.

Joie Lemon and Lime Juicer and Reamer: Due to its very sharp edges and tip, it scraped a lot of the citrus pith and pulp, resulting in bitter juice and too much pulp.Perhaps the best thing about the KitchenAid citrus squeezer is that you don’t even have to squeeze it in your hand. We paid close attention to the feel, weight, and overall quality of the materials—including any finishes, especially on metal. It’s a smaller version of our favorite reamer above, but with only one reamer dish that’s made for smaller citrus fruits.
