Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Bristol Brunch Co., a popular spot near Clifton, found their small, domestic juicer was causing bottlenecks during their frantic weekend service. They needed a machine that could keep up without constant overheating or cleaning delays.

"The Santos juicer has been a revelation. We’ve gone from one person being stuck on juice duty to being able to produce a jug in seconds. It’s quiet, incredibly robust, and  our customers have noticed the difference in quality. It just runs and  runs."

David Miller – Owner, The Bristol Brunch Co.

Since implementation, the café has reduced juice prep time by over 60% and  increased fresh juice sales by 30%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a flat, stable, and  non-slip countertop for the unit.
  • Ensure the area is close to a suitable 220-240V socket.
  • Before first use, wash the removable bowl, reamer, and  sieve in warm, soapy water.
  • Perform a quick test run without fruit to ensure it runs smoothly.

Keeping It Going

  • Always clean the removable parts immediately after a juicing session to prevent pulp from drying on.
  • Wipe down the aluminium body with a damp cloth; never submerge the motor unit in water.
  • Periodically check the reamer for any stubborn fibre build-up and  clean with a brush if needed.
  • Ensure the machine is switched off and  unplugged before any cleaning or maintenance.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Juicer

Not sure which model is right for your business? Here are a few key things to consider when choosing a commercial citrus juicer machine.

Consider Your Output

Think about your busiest hour. A model like this one with a 40Ltr/hr output is perfect for cafés and  bars, ensuring you never keep customers waiting.

Measure Your Space

Counter space is gold dust. Check the dimensions (H x W x D) to ensure the machine will fit comfortably in your workflow without causing an obstruction.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for models with removable, dishwasher-safe parts. A machine that's quick to clean, like this heavy duty lemon juicer from Santos, is more likely to be used properly.

Build Quality

Commercial means constant use. Materials like stainless steel and  aluminium are signs of a durable, long-lasting machine that can handle the pressure.

Manual vs. Automatic

Manual juicers offer control and  simplicity, while automatic models are faster for very high-volume scenarios. Choose what best fits your staffing and  demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this machine juice harder fruits like apples?

A: No, this is a dedicated electric citrus press Santos designs for citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, limes, and  grapefruits. Using it for hard fruits will damage the motor and  reamer.

Q: How loud is the motor during operation?

A: It's designed for commercial use and  is surprisingly quiet. The asynchronous motor runs smoothly without the high-pitched whine of many domestic models.

Q: Can it handle large grapefruits?

A: Yes, the reamer is designed to handle a variety of citrus sizes. For very large grapefruits, you may need to cut them into quarters for the best results.

Q: Is the body of this bar citrus juicer Santos model resistant to acidic juices?

A: Absolutely. The aluminium body and  stainless steel parts are specifically chosen for their high resistance to the corrosive effects of citric acid.

Q: What is the best way to clean the cone (reamer)?

A: The reamer lifts right off. A quick rinse under a tap is usually enough, but a soft brush can help remove any stubborn pulp.

Q: Approximately how many oranges does it take to make one litre of juice?

A: This depends on the size and  juiciness of the oranges, but as a general guide, you'll need between 10 and  14 medium-sized oranges.

Q: Can I put the removable parts in a commercial dishwasher?

A: Yes, the stainless steel bowl, plastic reamer, and  sieve are all designed to be safe for commercial dishwashers for easy and  hygienic cleaning.

Q: Does the machine have any safety features?

A: Yes, it features a thermal safety cut-out to protect the motor from overheating during prolonged, heavy use.

What Customers Are Saying

Why an Inclined Body Squeezes Out More Juice

Ever noticed how you have to tip a carton right over to get the last bit of milk out? The Santos CK690 uses the same simple principle with its inclined body. Instead of letting juice pool at the bottom of a flat bowl, the slight angle uses gravity to its advantage. As the fruit is juiced, every single drop is naturally channelled directly towards the spout. This means less wastage, a higher yield from each piece of fruit, and  ultimately, more profit in your till. It's a small design choice that makes a big operational difference.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Bustling Cafés: Perfect for adding premium fresh orange and  grapefruit juice to your breakfast and  brunch menu.
  • Cocktail Bars & Pubs: Drastically speeds up prep for fresh lemon and  lime juice, the backbone of countless cocktails.
  • Hotels & B&Bs: An essential for the breakfast buffet, providing guests with a fresh, high-quality juice experience.
  • Health Food Shops & Juice Bars: A reliable starting point for a fresh juice service that guarantees pure, unadulterated citrus juice every time.
