The Juice Fountain Multi-Speed or simply Breville BJE510XL is a beautifully constructed centrifugal juicer that comes with five adjustable speed settings giving you more control over the rate at which you juice your produce. The LCD screen easily displays the setting and fruit icons to guide you in selecting the correct speed. This juicer extract juice from produce at incredible speeds, ranging from 6,500 to 12,500 RPM. It is highly versatile. Use the lowest setting for soft fruits and leafy greens. Use the higher settings for harder produce. The Juice Fountain Multi-Speed comes with a 900-watt motor that has a built-in electronic smart chip that increases the speed of the stainless steel cutting disc if the load increases allowing it to juice efficiently.
It comes with a wide feed chute of three inches, reducing preparation time. Rest assured as you juice because all parts that come into contact with the food are BPA free. It is equipped with a special sensor that turns the juicer off if it happens to become overloaded with produce or overheated. This high-speed juicer is solidly constructed and made of a heavy stainless steel and high-quality polymer base. It weighs about 20 pounds.
The stainless steel cutting disc, which is surrounded by a micromesh filter, is capable of shredding and juicing anything you feed into it through the 3.3-inch feed chute, which utilizes a cutting knife to center the produce. Breville BJE510XL comes with a detachable spout allowing users to juice directly into a glass or other container. The included juice jug is 1.1 quarts in size and includes a froth separator. A 3.2-quart pulp container will catch the pulp as it is expelled from the electric juicer.

Breville BJE510XL Features & Product Details
Is it Easy to Use?
This multi-speed juicer is ideal for users who have to dash off to work in the morning. It will probably take you less than a minute to put it together. Simply snap it together, pop the safety locking mechanism handle into place, and you’re ready to go! The extra-wide feeding chute makes juicing simple because you do not have to spend too much time preparing your produce. Simple toss it in and press down lightly with the food pusher.
Juicing greens can be a little tricky though but wrap them around something hard before putting them down. You can also try rolling them tightly and then pushing them through. The juice maker will have your delicious juice extracted in a few seconds. As with most fast juicers, it is loud during operation, but unlike masticating juicers that can take up to 10 minutes to juice—it finishes in under a couple of minutes.
Is it Easy to Clean?
Breville BJE510XL is easy to pull apart and clean. It takes about a minute to quickly rinse the parts and put everything into the top rack of the dishwasher. Use a clean rag to wipe off the juicer base. If you have more time, then it is recommended that you wash everything by hand, but if not then the only parts that you need to wash by hand are the cutting disc and food pusher because these are not dishwasher safe. During cleanup, toss the cutting disc into hot, soapy water to loosen some of the stuck pulp. Carefully use the cleaning brush to scrub the pulp loose. Be careful with the cutting disc because the blades are sharp. You do not want to cut your fingers or damage the disc.
Juice Quality
When combining the variable speeds, the cutting disc, and the micromesh filter qualities, these allow the juicing machine to produce a high yield of juice with about 30 percent more extracted and up to 40 percent more vitamins, nutrients, and enzymes. Every machine is going to produce a little foam, which is why the foam separator is a great accessory to this juicer. When it comes to juice, concern should be placed more on the levels of oxidation that are occurring as a result of air being pushed into the juice. It does yield lower levels of oxidation, thanks to the varying speeds, giving you more nutrients and better taste than other centrifugal juice extractors on the market that do not operate at lower speeds. You can most likely store it for a short period of time in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed container.
What Kinds of Produce Can the Multi-Speed Juice Fountain Process?
This juice extractor will work best on hard produce, soft fruits and citrus fruits.
Hard produce includes cilantro, bitter gourd, ginger, cucumber, garlic, watermelon, carrots, yakon, celery, beets, broccoli, pineapple, turmeric, sweet potato, pepper, pumpkin, pear, asparagus, apple, fennel and cauliflower.
Citrus fruits include lime, lemon, orange, mandarin, grapefruit and tangerine.
Using a low-speed setting can process soft fruits such as tomato, blackberry, pomegranate, avocado, grapes, papaya, strawberry, melon, kiwifruit, peach, cranberries and mango to make a puree.
Can it Juice Leafy Greens and Nuts?
The short answer is no, centrifugal juicers are not efficient for juicing green leafy vegetables, let alone making soy and almond milk.
Thus, it’s not advisable for juicing any of the following—moringa, peppermint, beet greens, lettuce, cabbage, spinach, dandelion greens, basil, collard greens, romaine lettuce, brussels sprout, spring onion, wheatgrass, parsley, kale and pine tree needles.
If you really want to juice greens with your juice fountain multi-speed, process it along with hard fruits and vegetables. Some even suggest to sandwich it between hard produce but that won’t yield as much juice as cold press juicers.
