Hurom H400 juicer in test – How good is the model really? by Daniel Klarkowski
Freshly squeezed juices at home are miles ahead of those available in the supermarket in terms of nutrient and vitamin content. But before apples, pineapples and carrots can be transformed into a healthy drink, you first need to choose the right juicer. There are big differences here too. Cheap juicers often work using centrifugal force, where the fruit and vegetables are cut up with small knives and the juice is practically thrown out. This heats up the juice and mixes it with oxygen. Both heat and oxidation have a negative effect on the nutrients and the quality of the juice. So-called slow juicers have therefore become increasingly popular in recent years. These slowly and gently release the juice and thus not only have a higher juice yield, but above all achieve maximum juice quality.
With the H400 model , Hurom has launched a new slow juicer onto the market, the design and technical properties of which are intended to make juicing fruit and vegetables even easier to integrate into everyday life.
Experiences with the Hurom H400 juicer in the test: Structure & use of the slow juicer
The Hurom H400 no longer has a separate sieve. When developing the H400 series, the manufacturer decided to integrate the sieve directly into the auger for squeezing the juice. This design is called the “Easy-Clean Chamber System”.
The structure is as follows. At the top there is a knife for cutting up the fruits and vegetables in the basket. Juicing takes place on the outside of the auger, while the juice is separated from the pulp inside the chambers. The juice then goes into the liquid container and the remains are in the pulp chamber on the back of the device. This is also where the switch for turning the slow juicer on and off and the connection for the separate power cable are located. All baskets and collecting containers, as well as the auger, can be removed for cleaning and can be easily cleaned by rinsing or in the dishwasher. For me, this extremely easy cleaning was one of the absolute plus points of my first Hurom.
The Hurom H400 slow juicer is one of the quieter devices. In apartment buildings with thin walls and noise-sensitive neighbors, there is no reason to forego preparing fresh juice early in the morning. The motor does its work in a pleasantly quiet tone, regardless of the hardness of the fruit and vegetables. Those who have only had experience with conventional centrifugal juicers will notice a difference like night and day. The Hurom H400 can almost be described as whisper quiet.
Conclusion of the Hurom H400 juicer test
The Hurom H400 slow juicer is a sensible investment if you want to enjoy freshly squeezed juices at home with as little effort and time as possible and achieve the highest nutrient density and juice quality. The combination of a screw press and integrated sieve is effective for berries as well as fruit and vegetables that have a harder consistency. One advantage that goes hand in hand with the new, even more straightforward design is that it is even easier to clean. On the other hand, the H400 offers a little less flexibility in terms of juice consistency.

ORANGE POWER JUICE, THE DELICIOUS ENERGY BOOSTER by Simone Schäfer
Orange Power Juice: the best of fruits and vegetables!
With the new year came a few good resolutions for us as a family. And in our case they are not only very healthy, but also incredibly tasty. We have decided to incorporate fresh fruit and vegetable juices into our diet every week. We immediately bought a slow juicer and since then we have loved making delicious juices together. Until now there have only been classic ginger shots to support health. We have now expanded our repertoire to include a wide variety of juices. We’ve already tried green juices with spinach and herbs, processed berries and pomegranates into red juices and finally conjured up this Orange Power Juice , which has become our favorite with its refreshing acidity and the full power of citrus fruits, apples and carrots .
This is hidden in the Orange Power Juice!
Orange Power Juice contains the best of oranges, lemons, tangerines, ginger, apples and carrots . The bright orange color invites you to grab a glass and enjoy every sip of the refreshing drink. The most important question is: which nutrients are in this juice that do so much good for the body?
Oranges provide the body with vitamin C , which strengthens the immune system . But it also contains B vitamins , biotin and folic acid . They also provide your body with important minerals , trace elements and bioactive plant substances that support your immune system.
The lemon is known to be one of the largest sources of vitamin C. It also supplies the body with calcium , potassium , iron and magnesium . In terms of taste, they provide a pleasant freshness in the juice .
As a citrus fruit , tangerines are also full of vitamin C. But that was not all! They also contain a lot of fiber , B vitamins , vitamin A and beta-carotene , which has an antioxidant effect. Tangerines contain fewer minerals. They are more likely to be fruits with a higher sugar content.
Apples are true all-rounders when it comes to health. In addition to B vitamins, the delicious fruit also provides you with vitamins C and E , as well as minerals , trace elements and antioxidants . They are also rather low in calories and therefore absolutely recommended.
Carrots primarily provide beta-carotenes , which the body converts into vitamin A and is needed for vision and the immune system. But you also get B vitamins , vitamins B and C , potassium , iron and magnesium with the orange vegetables.
Ginger is a real super tuber and is even considered a medicinal plant. The tuber can help with digestive problems, nausea and colds, among other things. In terms of taste, its typical spiciness brings a certain pep to this Orange Power Juice and should be dosed carefully.
This is how I juice the fruits and vegetables for the Orange Power Juice!
As mentioned above, we bought a slow juicer in the new year . The choice fell on the H320N from Hurom Europe . What particularly impressed me was that he treated the ingredients particularly gently while retaining the maximum amount of nutrients.
But how does that work? The H320N works with a snail-shaped press that mimics natural movement . The ingredients are squeezed out in the same way as if you were to squeeze an orange by hand, for example. Unlike juicers and blenders, the fruit and vegetables are not chopped but simply squeezed .
As the name suggests, the slow juicer works slowly to avoid oxidation and thereby retain as many nutrients as possible. That was an important reason for us to choose this slow juicer! Because we wanted to retain exactly these nutrients that are lost through other preparations such as cooking.
Handling the H320N is super easy. In this case, I peeled the oranges because there are a lot of bitter substances under the peel that don’t taste as tasty in the juice. I didn’t cut the peel off the lemon and just quartered it. The apples must be cored because the cores are poisonous and do not belong in the juice. You can cut the carrots a little smaller if you like, and the ginger can be put in the slow juicer in one piece, but peeled.
The ingredients are prepared in just a few minutes and can be placed directly in the top compartment of the slow juicer. You can also add additional ingredients later through an opening. After you turn on the device, the delicious juice flows out on the left and a container on the right collects the pulp, i.e. the press residue. These are completely dry, which is the best sign that the slow juicer is really squeezing the last bit of juice out of the ingredients.
Before we bought it, we were a little worried that cleaning it might be a bit complicated. We were convinced otherwise! The device can be easily disassembled and cleaned directly under running water and with an appropriate brush. Provided you do this immediately after pressing! Under no circumstances should the leftovers dry out, otherwise cleaning becomes a challenge.
Because of its easy handling, quick cleanup and perfect, delicious results, we love making our juice with the H320N! A delicious juice is pressed at least twice a week that the whole family enjoys.
How long does Orange Power Juice last?
After preparing it, we usually put our juice in the fridge for half an hour . This adds even more freshness and tastes even tastier. As soon as everyone has drunk their first glass, I pour the juice into a glass bottle with a swing top and put it in the fridge.
You should definitely store it there to extend its shelf life. It only lasts for one day if not refrigerated. Stored in the refrigerator, you can drink it for up to three days . We usually prepare enough juice to last us two days. Before drinking, you should stir it well again so that everything combines well again.
ALL TIPS & TRICKS AT A GLANCE:
- We like to try our hand at preparing juices! Random combinations often produce really tasty results.
- The nutrients of most fruits and vegetables are hidden beneath the peel ! So don’t peel apples, carrots, etc.
- I only remove the peel and white skin from the orange. There are a lot of bitter substances in this , which are healthy, but in larger quantities make the juice no longer as tasty.
- You don’t have to throw away the pomace ! You can use it to bake , cook or compost it !

Freshly squeezed juices as true immune system boosters, by Adaeze
Especially in winter, we crave a little boost of energy – be it after a long day at work or when the weather throws a spanner in the works. In moments like this, I like to resort to a simple but effective solution: freshly squeezed juices. These delicious immune, beauty and energy elixirs are not only a treat for the palate, but also true health boosters for our immune system.
Why are freshly squeezed juices so healthy?
The answer lies in the abundance of nutrients, vitamins and enzymes found in fresh fruits and vegetables. Compared to packaged juices from the supermarket, freshly squeezed juices are real nutrient bombs. The reason for this is obvious: the fruits and vegetables are processed directly before consumption, which means that the valuable ingredients are preserved.
In particular, the valuable nutrients they contain, such as secondary plant substances, vitamins and minerals, are abundant in freshly squeezed juices. Vitamin C, for example, is an important immune system booster that not only promotes the immune system, but also the production of collagen, which is important for healthy skin and joints. In addition, fresh juices also provide vitamins A and E, which support cell renewal and thus contribute to a strong immune system.
Simple strengthening of the immune system in everyday life
The good news is that incorporating freshly squeezed juice into your daily routine is easier than you think. A ginger shot in the morning or a green juice in the afternoon can make a valuable contribution to strengthening the immune system. And the natural sweetness of the juices makes them a healthy alternative to all industrially produced drinks, which are often loaded with sugar and preservatives.
My tip: Experiment with different fruit and vegetable combinations to provide your palate and your body with a variety of nutrients. Green juices with spinach, cucumber and apple, for example, are not only healthy but also wonderfully refreshing. I recommend keeping the vegetable content in your freshly squeezed juices as high as possible. A vegetable content of at least 50-60% is ideal. The high vegetable content ensures that your juices do not contain too much fructose, which in turn has a negative effect on your blood sugar level.
Homemade with the Hurom slow juicer
The best way to enjoy freshly squeezed juices is to make them yourself. This is where the slow juicer comes into play. I am constantly asked which models I use and can recommend. I have been working with my partner Hurom for many years. Hurom developed the world’s first slow juicer over 50 years ago and has stood for innovative cold-pressed juicer technology ever since. With Hurom’s patented Slow Squeeze technology, you can enjoy fresh juices with full flavor and lots of nutrients every day.
Why a slow juicer?
Compared to conventional juicers, a slow juicer preserves more nutrients because it presses the fruits and vegetables slowly and gently. This process minimizes heat generation, which would otherwise cause sensitive nutrients to be lost. If you want to buy a juicer, make sure you choose a slow juicer when purchasing. All Hurom juicers are slow juice. This means that an advanced pressing technology, a combination of squeezing, filtering and mixing technologies, is used to produce high-quality and particularly healthy juices. The slow juicers are designed to preserve the aroma and taste of fresh fruits and vegetables by minimizing oxidation and heat stress during juicing. This means that more vitamins remain in your juice, which in turn benefits your health. Hurom offers different models. I’m a big fan of the Hurom H330P . With this model, all ingredients can be poured in at once and the juice can be conveniently juiced without further pressing.
Purchasing a slow juicer is not only an investment in your own health, but also in the enjoyment of fresh juices without additives. Once tried, the morning ritual of juicing becomes a revitalizing start to the day that you definitely won’t want to miss.
Overall, freshly squeezed juices are not only a delicious addition, but an easy way to boost the immune system. The path to a healthier lifestyle can be as simple as drinking a glass of freshly squeezed juice a day. Try it out and feel the invigorating effect yourself!
