Product Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of a Victorio Steam Juicer! You will
denitely nd this to be a useful addition to your kitchen. It is a helpful
tool in creating healthy juices, jellies and syrups right at home. This manual
will give you step by step instructions to guide you through the whole
process of using and caring for your juicer.
In this manual you will nd assembly instructions, how to prepare specic
types of fruit for juicing, how to use your juicer, and a recipes section.
To give you a good idea of the basic procedure, you will start by washing
and assembling your juicer and selecting good quality fruit. Next, ll the
stock pot with water, and once the fruit is properly prepared, you will add
it to the colander portion of the juicer. As the water boils, the hot steam
will rise up through the colander, heat the fruit and begin the extraction
process. The juice will drip down into the juice kettle, and in approximately
one hour, you can start to drain fresh juice into a pot to be used for juice
concentrates, jellies, syrups and more.

Care Instructions
Use a soft cloth and warm, soapy water to wash your Victorio Steam Juicer
by hand before the initial use. This will help to remove any particles or
residue from the factory. Then follow these simple care instructions for
keeping your steam juicer clean and looking new:
• However you choose to wash your juicer, be sure to use a soft cloth to
keep from scratching the shiny surface of the stainless steel.
• For a hassle-free clean, the entire juicer may be placed in your
dishwasher, including the juicer hose, as it is made of a high
temperature silicone.
• If hard water stains form on any portion of your steam juicer, they
are easily cleaned by soaking the affected portion in a diluted vinegar
solution. Use ½ c. vinegar to 1 qt of water, let soak for 30-60 minutes,
use a dish cloth to wash off any remaining hard water, rinse and dry.
You may need to increase the soak time and/or the amount of vinegar
used for tough stains.
• Once clean, dry juicer with a soft dish towel to keep water spots from
forming.
Preparing Fruit for Juicing - General
Select fruit that is of the appropriate ripeness for the recipe you will be
using, is rm, has a good color and texture, and is of ideal quality for
eating fresh or cooking. Any fruit that has mold, is bruised, split or has
otherwise been compromised should be discarded, or the damaged section
cut away. Using fruit that is overripe will cause your juice to have
a watery avor. Quartering larger fruit, like apples and peaches, can
help to accelerate the overall juicing process because it allows the fruit to
release its liquid more quickly. For fruit with stems, thicker rinds and pits
that would not normally be consumed when eating fresh, you will need to
remove these portions beforehand, otherwise you may end up with bitter or
unwanted avors in your juice.
Preparing Specic Fruit Types
• Berries & Grapes – To prepare this type of fruit, you will need
to remove all stems and discard any damaged fruit. Wash the fruit
thoroughly, then place in the colander of the steam juicer.
