A fluid separation apparatus includes a container for capturing liquid juice separated from blended juice. The fluid separation apparatus also includes a filter basket supported by the container. The filter basket includes an upper portion that engages with the container and a cylindrical extension portion that extends from the upper portion. The fluid separation apparatus also has a filtering device that can extend into and through the filter basket. The filtering device is supported by the filter basket at a top end and has a bottom end that extends past the cylindrical extension portion of the filter basket. The fluid separation apparatus has a press assembly having a rod element with a handle disposed on a first end of the rod element and a press disposed on a second end of the rod element.

A lemon juicing assembly for squeezing juice from a lemon includes a first lever that has a cup integrated therein to receive a lemon. A blade is fixed in the cup to slice the lemon when the lemon is urged downwardly in the cup. A second lever is pivotally coupled to the first lever and a plunger is integrated therein. The second lever is positionable in a closed position having the second lever lying on the first lever. Thus, the plunger compresses the lemon into the cup. In this way the lemon is sliced and the juice is squeezed from the lemon. The second lever is positionable in an open position having the second lever extending away from the first lever.

A fruit and vegetable juicing device having a feed tube, a juice collector and a grating disc carrying a frusto-conical sieve, the grating disc having a first array of grating teeth, a secondary processing surface with a second array of grating teeth; each tooth having one leading edge and one trailing edge, wherein the juice collector has either an internal helical ramp with an elevated discharge nozzle or a circumferential trough having a lowest point that leads to a discharge nozzle.

An apparatus is provided for processing fruit or vegetables in order to obtain a flowable mass, such as juice or puree and includes a receptacle, an extraction unit for mechanically extracting juice and pulp from the fruit or vegetables, the unit being located within the receptacle for discharging the juice and pulp into the receptacle, a motor unit, drivingly connected to the extraction unit, an outlet unit for collecting flowable mass from the receptacle.

A side-squeezing squeezer including a hinge, a first presser connected to the hinge, a second presser connected to the hinge opposite of the first presser, and a support positioned between the first presser and the second presser and configured to hold a foodstuff in place. The first and second pressers may be configured to squeeze the foodstuff using lever action from the side.
