INTRODUCTION: The Cuisinart™ Citrus Juicer offers superior functionality with an elegant design – perfect for the home gourmet. This powerful juicer is capable of handling the toughest tasks with ease. The Cuisinart™ Citrus Juicer has unique features that maximize juice output. A universal juicing cone works with any size fruit, and will periodically reverse the direction of spin when pressure is stopped and then resumed. This two-way rotation helps to extract more juice from fruit.
TIPS AND HINTS YIELDS Choose fresh fruit that is firm, not soft – it will yield more juice. • Grapefruit – 1 medium grapefruit is approximately 1 pound and will yield about 1 cup of juice. Always wash citrus fruit before juicing to remove pesticides and residues from handling. Room temperature fruit will yield more juice than refrigerated fruit. • Lemons – Approximately 4 to 6 lemons equal one pound and will yield about 1 cup of lemon juice.
7. Press fruit against cone by using firm steady pressure to activate juicing mechanism. 8. If you remove the pressure, reamer may reverse direction once pressure is reapplied – this is normal and provides more even, effective juicing. Squeezing the fruit while pressing down on the cone will extract more juice. 9. Once you feel the ribs of the cone through the citrus rind, remove from cone and repeat steps 5-7. 10. After approximately 1 lb. of fruit has been juiced, the sieve will appear to be full. 11.

Using a Cuisinart® Hand Mixer, mix on low speed until blended. Add remaining sugar, lemon juice, egg yolks, and milk. Mix on low speed until combined, about 30 to 40 seconds.
