- Be sure to choose guavas that are evenly round, balanced, without deformities; the skin should be slightly rough, bumpy, not smooth or shiny.
- Fresh guavas will still have the stem intact, firmly attached to the top of the fruit, and hard to detach. The leaves should be dark green and still fresh, indicating that the guava flesh will have a lot of juice and be crisp and tasty.
How to choose fresh cabbage

Useful tips for cleaning the juicer
- To keep the juicer always spotless, it should be washed immediately after use because the pulp from fruits and vegetables left too long will dry and become very difficult to clean.
- Additionally, for the body of the machine, only a clean damp cloth should be used for wiping; absolutely do not soak or wash directly with water as that is where the machine’s motor is located.
- If you need to use the juicer multiple times in one day, you only need to wash it thoroughly after the last use; for the other times, just rinse it briefly with water.
- Moreover, to save time on cleaning the pulp quickly and easily, you can line the pulp container with a plastic bag before use.
