With a simple design and great juicing capabilities, the VRT 452 can create a glass of juice in a matter of minutes. Just like other Omega juicers, the VRT 452 operates at 70 rotations per minute, making it a great juicer for getting the maximum amount of juice from soft and hard produce. You can also create smoothies and sorbets with the additional attachments that come with the VRT 452.
The coarse screen can turn the machine into a blender to make delicious smoothies, or juice your vegetables and keep all the pulp in to make a soup base or cooking sauce. The Omega homogenising attachment is simple to attach to your VRT and turns your juicer into a masher which is ideal for mashing frozen fruits to make sorbet, baby food, or mashing boiled vegetables.
High-quality parts are paramount to a good juicer and as standard Omega has done just that. Using premium materials throughout you can rest aside that the VRT 452 will give good results quickly. The augur in the VRT452 is super strong as it’s made from GE-Ultem which is recognised as being 8 times stronger than standard plastics. The juicing screen is made from stainless steel which makes cleaning easier and gives a robust environment for juicing to take place.
Using an automatic wiping system whilst juicing enables the screen to be free of pulp. As seen in most Hurom vertical models, this easy clearing system allows far more juice to be extracted and also makes it easy to clean the screen. The VRT 452 also has a handy juice flap, which makes it possible to mix your juice prior to serving it as well as getting rid of foam, drips and spillages onto the kitchen surface.
A slow RPM ensures the maximum amount of juice is retained from any type of produce. The slow speed of 70 RPM also preserves vital vitamins, minerals and enzymes, which means you get to drink more of the good stuff.
The additional benefit of using a slow speed is that little or no foaming occurs, unlike a more conventional dual gear juicer. Leafy greens can be juiced using the Omega VRT452 as long as they are combined with fruit and vegetables which are harder.
Not only does this Omega juicer use a slow masticating speed, but it also uses a two-stage juicing system. In the first step of the process, the produce is crushed, extracting a lot of juice. But before the pulp is ejected automatically, it is comprehensively pressed; this makes sure that every last drop is collected and that the pulp leaves the machine almost dry.
Cleaning up tends to be the worst part of any kitchen activity, but the VRT 452 does the hard work for you. Once you’ve finished juicing, simply pour a glass of water in and run it through the machine to complete the self-cleaning process. This allows rapid cleaning between juices as the juice flap gives you the ability to retain water for cleaning inside the juice container. The silicone blades carry out the majority of the work for you, however, it is still advised that you give the juicing screen a scrub to get rid of any fibre that may be stuck in the screen.
